About Local Yarn Store Day
At its core, LYS Day is all about supporting small businesses and bringing the fiber community together to celebrate and bring awareness to our crafts! We've put together a quick reminder of how you can support your LYS all year long - most of which cost you nothing!
1. Bring a friend to the shop or refer them to the website for online shopping! We love our MFY Family - local and virtual!
2. Follow, like and comment on social media content! We are on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest and YouTube. Connect with us on the platforms you use!
3. Attend and spread the word about our social events and classes! We take pride in our gatherings and want to share them!
4. Read blog posts and sign up for newsletters to stay in touch! There is so much more to what we offer than simply purchasing yarn!
5. Share feedback on products, events, promotions, make alongs - anything! If we don't know what you like - or don't like! - we can't give the community more of what it wants!
