Yarn Garden is affectionately known as the “mothership” of yarn shops with three rooms packed full of yarn from floor to ceiling, and a room with thousands of books, patterns and needles. Our weekly and monthly events keep us hopping and socially connected to our dear customers. The Knit Nite bunch meets every Tuesday evening in the store and our monthly Friday night Pub Knitting crowd gathers at the Barley Mill Pub.

  • All Weekend: Art Show featuring an installation by Janice Arnold (see below).
Artist’s Biography: As the daughter of a cartographer, Janice Arnold grew up looking at the world in landscapes rather than countries, contour lines rather than boundaries, textures rather than cultures.

Fine fabric was always a passion. Throughout college she was enamored with folk art, high fashion and studied a wide variety of textile traditions. She traveled extensively to learn traditional techniques within cultural contexts.

JA started making handmade Felt in 1999 for a large scale sculpture commission for the Nordstrom Corporation stores. She has focused intently on making Felt as functional fabric and art form ever since.
