It finally happened.
We took two things people love— yarn and having strong opinions about yarn—and turned it into a fully organized, slightly chaotic, absolutely unforgettable event.
Welcome to Yarn Tasting Speed Dating.
When: Saturday, July 25th from 2-4 pm.
💘 Here’s how it works:
You’ll rotate through 10 different yarns like you’re on a very niche dating show.
At each station, you’ll have 10 minutes to:
- Meet the yarn
- Cast on (or jump in)
- Knit or crochet a bit
- Form immediate and possibly dramatic opinions
Then—just when you’re getting attached—you rotate.
Because commitment is scary.
But also… you might come back for it later.
🧵 What’s included:
- ✨ 10 curated yarns to try (no guessing, just touching)
- 📝 A very official tasting card so you can document your feelings
- 🍷 A beverage + snack pairing at every single “date”
(yes, every yarn comes with its own little moment—because we are nothing if not committed to the theme) - 🧶 The option to purchase anything you fall in love with
(this is where things get dangerous)
💬 The important details:
- Bring your own needles or hook for DK weight yarn (so you can keep your swatches like the tiny trophies they are)
- Need tools? We’ve got you covered in-shop
- Minimal experience needed - Should know basics like how to cast on and knit/crochet, and bind off.
⚠️ What to expect:
- You will have a favorite
- You will be surprised
- You will absolutely judge at least one yarn harshly
- You may walk out with yarn you didn’t plan to buy
We support you through all of it.
🏆 Bonus:
At the end, you’ll crown your:
- Best in Show
- Biggest Surprise
- The One That Betrayed You
Because not all yarns are emotionally stable.
🎟️ Spots are limited
Because too many people + too much yarn + snacks = chaos we cannot legally manage.
So grab your spot early.
💙 Final thoughts:
This is not a class.
This is not a lecture.
This is a full experience.
You’re here to try things, trust your instincts, and maybe—just maybe—find “the one.”
Or at least three you can’t stop thinking about.
