Charity Hats and Free Patterns

For a number of years now, the Yarn Garage, StevenBe, and friends have been making and donating hand crafted charity hats. One of our talented members, Barb Melom, (a.k.a. the "Queen of Hats) has been making headlines for her charity work! You go girl!

Also, check out the Hats for Homeless blog.




If you'd like to make charity a hat you may use our latest free charity hat pattern below. You can also stop in to either StevenBe in Minneapolis or the Yarn Garage in Rosemount for the pattern and a free ball of yarn to make the hat! If you currently have a hat or other knit garments you'd like to donate but don't know where, please stop in, we'll find a home for it!

Mother's Day/Shepherd's Harvest

Thank you to everyone who visited our booth/mini boutique at Shepherd's Harvest over Mother's Day weekend! We were so happy with the turn out considering it was cold and rainy all day Saturday. But of course, to knitters and fiber lovers cold weather just means they get to wear knitwear on top of knitwear on top of knitwear.


And what Mother's Day fiber celebration is complete with out our very own mothers? Mama Berg and Mama France came along for the fiber fun. Mama Berg even dressed up in a pink jumpsuit for the special occasion!





Seriously Steven. I don't even know how describe... What am I supposed to write...?
Yet again you've left us all speechless and we're happier for it!
