Seattle Yarn

A simple graphic with wavy lines suggesting water, and a shark fin going towards a purple birthday hat. Text at the top reads “Cheryl’s birthday sale!”

Hey Seattle-area yarn 🧶 lovers who also love purple - we have a tradition at our shop that we put our least favorite color on sale for our birthdays. Cheryl isn’t a big fan of purple, so purple yarn is 10% off this weekend - come wish her happy birthday, take all the purple away, and make her happy!

Our open table will be here for anyone who wants and needs a safe space to gather, to create and build community. The more we connect, the stronger we all are.

Someone practically burst through the shop door today and growled (in that happy I want it way), “Maaath Boooook” and then went right for Math for Knitters by @kateatherley.bsky.social
Why yes, we are ordering more stock already, why do you ask? 😊

Yeah that’s a wild answer - I hope the OP got some better replies, but I’m now also dying to know what that other knitter is doing!

Six women stand in a yarn shop, all holding different versions of the Toph Hat by Woolly Wormhead. The hat features a wavy pattern in two colors, created by short rows. The women are all smiling and are clearly proud of their work.

A fun and successful class! We taught the Toph Hat by @woollywormhead.bsky.social and look at these awesome results!
Students learned lots: chart reading, short rows, grafting in garter stitch, and more.
You should come take a class with us!
