Tomorrow, Friday, October 5th is the first day of the 12th Annual Best Little Yarn Crawl in Texas! The Yarn Crawl lasts for ten awesome days – and The Tinsmith’s Wife will be open all the first nine days from 10 am – 6 pm and Sunday, 10/15 from 10 am – 5 pm.
Do you have your passport and the car gassed up? If not – there is still time – and we still have passports left to purchase for $15 that includes a great bag suitable to hold shop pins from each shop you visit. AND each shop will provide a 20% discount on highlighted yarn and provide two exclusive patterns! There are also daily door prizes at each shop – and a chance to win the Grand Prize!
It would be great if we stopped there – but we have added more fun to Yarn Crawl at The Tinsmith’s Wife! Yep, we have several awesome events in store in the store!
Friday, 10/5 – Sunday, 10/7
Trunk Show
We are so excited to have San Antonio independent dyer, Savvy Skeins, in the shop for a great trunk show. She has some great colors in both fingering and DK weights – and you will love these skeins! Her titles of colorways are also the bomb. Alli will also be here on Saturday so you can meet this awesome dyer.
Friday, 10/12
Nifty, Cool Class
We are excited to have Vickie Howell of The Knit Show joining us on Friday, 10/12 at 1 pm to teach us Navajo Knitting! This is a great way to “ply” up yarns to make them into something completely new and different! PLUS you get to meet Vickie Howell!
The session will be available on a first come basis – no reservations – just come on! We will have small kits available – but feel free to bring along a bit of leftover sock yarn and a US 10.5 or US 11 needle to experiment with this cool technique.
Saturday, 10/13
Trunk Show
Yarn Crawl wouldn’t be without Yarn Crawl if we didn’t have Ana and Mr. Carnival from Yarn Carnival be here for a trunk show. These special people mean a lot to us – and I am confident you will love their yarns as much as I do. AND we will have a very special colorway debuted during the trunk show. Wahooo!
Plan your route – and be sure that Comfort is on it at least once if not twice! The cats have done a great job decorating the shop for Fall and are waiting to see you.
Of course, while you are here – Comfort is a pretty swell town! Grab lunch at High’s Cafe or a pizza at Comfort Pizza – and swing by Intermezzo for their beautiful art – and perhaps sign up for one of their upcoming art classes….and then there is a great cup of coffee (or two) at The Wanderin’ Calf….
Hope to see you soon!
