What I'm Thankful For


This year I am particularly grateful to have had such a wonderful 1st year as a local yarn shop owner! It's been quite a learning experience and a ton of work. I am thankful for the awesome Ball & Skein & More community (both local and online) and for my skilled shop staff! Welcome back to Ariel who re-joined the shop staff last week.


Small Business Saturday is a favorite holiday of mine so I will be offering 15% off storewide from Friday November 29th - Monday December 2nd! If you are shopping online, use code SMALLBIZ15 to receive 15% off your order.


I'm most grateful for beautiful Beverly!

Milo Fall Trunk Show

The Milo Fall 2024 Trunk Show is a six-piece collection featuring Milo from Manos del Uruguay. Milo (pronounced ME-low) is a beautiful Merino/Linen blend DK weight yarn. It is rustic yet elegant and is great for any project where you want good drape. Because it is a Merino/Linen blend, you get the knit-ability of Merino wool with the drape of linen. In addition, the two fibers take the dye differently so you get a natural, subtle heather. As the linen lightens the yarn, you also get good yardage on the skein.

If you've shopped with us in the past, you are already signed up and your rewards have started accruing automatically. If you are a 1st time shopper, provide your name and email address at checkout and you're enrolled!
