Time for Spring cleaning--refresh your yarn stash! Bring your good quality yarn that you’ve fallen out of love with and swap it for something from someone else’s stash. One person’s discarded yarn is another person's treasure.

  1. Bring full balls/skeins/cakes of yarn – we can cake or skein them on site.
  2. Put them in clear, sealed, ziplock bags. If you have multiple skeins of the same yarn, they can be bagged together. Bags available on site
  3. Please label each bag with your name, the yarn brand/dyer, composition, weight and yardage. Follow this link to print pre-made labels: yarn labels
  4. If your yarn does not find a new home, you may take it home or choose to donate it.
  5. You can bring knitting accessories, e.g. books, needles, project bags. They need to be in good, clean condition, and labeled.

We look forward to seeing you and finding yarn a good home!
