Local Yarn Store Day:

April 26

Local Yarn Store Day (LYS Day), a celebration of independent yarn shops and the crafting community, will be on April 26, 2025.  And we have a special treat planned for you! Supernova Dyeworks will be setting up a TRUNK SHOW on Friday and Saturday April 25 & 26. You won’t want to miss this! The yarn is a rainbow of joyful colors and some of it even glows in the dark! In addition to the Supernova Dyeworks trunk show, we will be offering 15% off your entire purchase!

(Supernova Dyeworks yarn will be excluded from the LYS Day sale pricing).

NEW YARN ALERT!!!

Our spring and summer yarns have been arriving almost daily! This cute crocheted top is made with Eco Cotton Tweed from Ella Rae. We are stocked with the tweedy colors below!

 

Another special treat for spring is this Zooey Spray from Juniper Moon Farm. Not only did we get a few new soft shades of our solid color Zooey, but we have some of these gorgeous multicolor skeins. What would YOU make with one of these?


Our April Sock of the Month is the Murmuration Socks by Summer Lee Design Co. The pattern is just one of many in her book The Sock Project, which we have copies of at the shop. What is cuter than some simple lace details in fun spring colors?


That’s all for now! Can’t wait to see you at the shop :)

Warm and wooly regards from all your friends at Henny’s Yarn Shop!
