Celebrating it's fifth year, the GREAT RHODY YARN CRAWL will run April 16th, 17th and 18th. We have had several inquires as to our participation in the crawl but this is a Rhode Island tradition which remains steadfast. However, since many of our customers will be crawling and have planned a trip here to ITL as part of their crawl, we will be supporting and celebrating right along on Friday the 17th from 10-2 and Saturday the 18th from 10-4, by offering 15% off * to Crawlers with passports in hand, along with a special gift at your time of purchase.
Make sure you check out the Fiber Artist Market Place on Sunday the 19th, from 10-4, at Mount Hope Farm in Bristol RI.
* Your passport must be presented at time of check out (we won't be stamping them but just checking to see you are participating) and discounts cannot be combined with any other offer and does not include speciality items, Quince and Company Yarns or PUG products.
