Yarn Indulgences Trunk Show

By very popular demand, we welcome back Yarn Indulgences!

Handdyed out of Cambridge ON, Deb works primarily in the floral industry and finds much inspiration from nature.

“My colours are as varied as I am. I love creating new colours by mixing unlikely combinations and I especially enjoy working with yarn shops in making their own colourway, unique to them.”

She will be bringing a wide range of her yarns including her two flagship lines, the Indulgent line (100% british wool) and the Zed line (made in Canada!) which is a supersoft merino.

Join us from 11am to 6pm for the last Pedestrian Sunday of the season!!!

Yarn Indulgences Trunk Show

Luxury hand dyed yarn. Always unique and often one of a kind.

Yarn Indulgences was one of last year’s most successful shows, and we are so excited to have her back! We’ll be set up and ready to go for 11am, and the show will close up close to 6pm, so come early. Pick up some yarn and then go enjoy the rest of what Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market has to offer.

KNIT MITTS: A Kate Atherley Book Launch Party

After more than a year of planning, designing, testing, and editing, Kate Atherley’s Knit Mitts book is almost on our shelves! Join us for the official launch party of this soon-to-be-classic book on Wednesday, November 8th at 6pm. Kate will of course be there to sign books, give yarn advice, and share a coffee and/or beer with us along with the regular stitch night activities.

PRE-ORDER DEAL: email us to pre-order your signed copy of Knit Mitts before Hallowe’en, and get 10% off both your book (regularly $30) AND yarn for your first project from the book!*

Having seen a copy in person, we can guarantee that this book is a soon-to-be classic and a necessity for every knitter’s library.  And we hear the woman herself is pretty happy with how it’s turned out.  Ever been mystified by how to get fingers on gloves to sit right, or just how to thrum a mitten? Maybe you’re looking to try colourwork in the round, or someone in your life has been begging for a pair of texting mitts. This is your chance to get all of those answers and more from one of the great living masters. 

*Book and yarn must be purchased at the same time in order to receive the discount.
