New Yarnware Ad


Our new Yarnware ad was printed today, and I'm really excited about it! It's a picture of my son Robby. He is wearing a sweater I knit for him. The photos came out so well, the studio is displaying it in their window!
Robby will be 4 months old tomorrow. He is wearing a sweater knit with Filatura Di Crosa Zara and the pattern is from Sirdar.
We are having a Yarnware ad contest. I would love to do an ad with one of our customers' children or grandchildren wearing a sweater knit with yarn from Yarnware.
If you are interested, email me a copy of your picture. The deadline is February 28th.

Shrug


This is the shrug I knit for my daughter Chelsea.

It is made with Noro Iro and the fur trim is made with two strands of Plymouth Flash and one strand of GGH Apart held together.

Snoopy is wearing the shrug because Chelsea refused to try it on. She said "I don't like it and I WON'T try it on!" I thought if I put it on Snoopy that she would see how beautiful it was. I made a big fuss and told Snoopy how cute he looked and I tooked some pictures, but she still wouldn't try it on.

Hello World

I started this blog because I thought it would be a great way to share what's happening in the store with our internet customers. We are inspired by the creativity of our customers every day and would love to share all the interesting things going on here with our customers online and the rest of the knitting community.




The store opened in May of 2005. Yarnware has been online since 2000.


We are excited to share our passion for knitting, our current knitting projects and news of
events from our West Orange, NJ store.
