What's Happening at MFY?
We are always looking for ways to connect with our community and provide the products and services you want! We hope this page helps keep you informed of all the fun, new and exciting things happening at MFY!
Trunk shows are an opportunity to see and feel products you may not be familiar with. We often have the opportunity to display project samples made from the featured products as well!
We do not have any trunk shows scheduled for the month of April, but there are always amazing samples in the store and we highly recommend taking time to browse, squish and enjoy them!
Coronation Keepsake Blanket Crochet Along
We are excited to be a part of Sirdar's Coronation Keepsake Blanket crochet along! Running March through mid-April, the project has been designed in honor of King Charles III and his impending coronation on May 6th!
Information on the crochet along, pattern installments, links to kits and tools, tutorial videos and more can be found on our CAL page.
Leaf Wrap Knit Along
Blue Sky Fibers is hosting their seasonal KAL again this Spring and the project is the gorgeous Leaf Wrap from their Spring/Summer collection. A great project for intermediate knitters, this would also be a good way to level up some skills for beginners!
Learn more and find all the information you need on yarn (Woolstok Light!!) or kits, the pattern, tools and tutorials on our KAL page!
Joining in on the fun? We will have activity on our Facebook and Instagram accounts as well as our new, private MAL Facebook group for all our active knit and crochet alongs!
There is never a dull day at Michigan Fine Yarns! Check back often for new events and community happenings!
Local Yarn Store Day!
Although we celebrate local yarn shops each and every day, it is so much fun to see these special small businesses supported as a group around the world! It's like a global yarn crawl!
Learn more about all the fun things we have coming up as we participate in LYS Day on Saturday, April 29th. Keep an eye on our blog post because you know Swaran, she and the team are always coming up with fun, new ideas!
Fiber Academy Workshops
Looking for a fun way to get the youth in your life engaged with the fiber arts? We are thrilled be to offering "summer camp" style workshops for both knitting and crochet in June!
These 2.5 hour workshops are designed with ages 8-17 in mind and will teach participants the basic skills of their chosen craft. Skills have been chosen to instill the confidence to complete an entire project after the workshop.
The shop is overflowing with wonderful yarns, tools, patterns, kits, notions and more, and we are constantly working on adding new items to our online presence as well!
Juniper Moon Farm Bud Dappled
Such a bright and springy yarn, you are going to love working with Bud Dappled! So soft and unique - this is not your old fashioned kitchen cotton! Plus, coming in at a bulky weight, your projects are going to fly off the needles without leaving you sweating as the temperatures heat up!
