And Now With More Tea!
We are super excited to have our very own "Lovelyarns" branded teas! Each flavor is a little different and will be a super cozy enhancement to all of your favorite stitching projects! We have seven different teas to start: Earl Grey Creme de la Creme (black tea), Carrot Cake (rooibos tea), Coconut (green tea), Sweet Berries (fruit tea), Evening in Missoula (herbal tea), and Black Currant (black tea).
If you have visited us this past year, you will have noticed that we have LOADS of beautifully hand-dyed yarn and fiber from our good friend Elise Koch of Create Yarnworks!
All of Elise's gorgeous goodies are hand-dyed in her home studio in Hebron, Maryland. You don't want to miss her NEW Corriedale/Gotland DK OR her NEW Neon Merino Tweeds!
And for our spinners we have a Teeswater/Punta Arenas/Lotus Fiber Blend and a Romney/Shetland/Bamboo custom blend! Both are a dream to spin!

PRIDE Flags!
A message from our friend, Libby, owner of The Modest Florist,
"Hello fellow witty stitchers! It's that time of year where I reach out for help with our "Pride Poles" decorations for the Hampden business district. For the last few years, we have welcomed Pride month with yarn bombs adorning the many utility poles along the Avenue and Falls Road.
It's simple to participate: knit or crochet a 27" wide by 36" long (or longer) representation of the Pride flag (see sample picture). It can be an actual replica of the ROYGBP stripes, self-striping rainbow yarn, or your own interpretation. Most importantly the stripes should be horizontal so the stripes can be seen from all sides.
I have some self-striping yarn at The Modest Florist to give away and Melissa has some donated yarn to contribute as well. Ideally we should have more than 20, so if you can make multiples that's awesome!
Please let me know if you need supplies or further instructions. Completed yarn bombs can be dropped off at The Modest Florist or Lovelyarns. Thank you lovely peoples!"
Anyone looking to purchase yarn bombing supplies from Lovelyarns will receive a 15% discount on their entire purchase! We look forward to seeing you and thank you for helping out!
