Local Yarn Store Day is a national day of celebration honoring that unique and ubiquitously beloved entity, the Local Yarn Store – a place where fiber crafters of all kinds can come together to find inspiration, learn a new skill, get alllll the yarn, and craft together in community.
The above-mentioned are among the things we love about being YOUR local yarn store, but the most cherished of them is the idea of "community." In addition to celebrating all the things we love about YARN and YARN SHOPS, we are thrilled to support and celebrate our Community Giving partner, Hearts Unknown Education (HÚE).
Hearts Unknown Education (HÚE), is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Bend that uses the creative arts to offer imaginative experiences in a safe and supportive environment, guiding young people (K-12) who may be struggling emotionally – particularly those with anxiety or depression – or who may be having a tough time coping with the state of the world. HÚE’s Creative Wellness programs foster free expression while encouraging youth to explore their inner selves and emotions through art.
As has become our tradition, we're holding our BIGGEST RAFFLE EVER, benefiting HÚE! Loads of sweater quantities of really beautiful yarn, interchangeable needle sets, kits, gifts, and so much more will be raffled off to many lucky winners. 100% of proceeds from raffle ticket sales will be donated to Hearts Unknown Education in support of their programming for Central Oregon youth.
