We are also in the process of updating our website with new products. Please check back often to see all of the new and exciting products that have arrived.

Stay tuned: We are working on a list of Charities you can get involved with as far as knitting and crocheting is concerned. We hear about so many worthy causes and we would like to encourage YOU to get involved. This week's Hall of Famer made this cute little 5 hour Baby Sweater and hat. That's just one of the many things we can be doing. If you know of a particular Charity that is close to your heart, why not drop me a line and I will include it in our upcoming list. Just e-mail me at gaby@yarnlady.com

Come in and check out the books on this subject.

I thought I would add a new feature to our letters. Short "Hall of Fame" clips!

Past Events

Just a short time ago Yarn Lady hosted another Yarn Tasting by Trendsetter Yarns with Barry Klein.

If you couldn't make it this time, perhaps you would like to see pictures of the event.
You will also see the newest patterns from Trendsetter Yarns and find links to their yarns. I haven't had time to add all of these to our website, so please call Jenny at (949) 770- 7809 to order or for any questions you may have. m-g-lles-ie-@s-cglo-al.net

The page contains a number of images. I kept them small and you can click on a larger version, but it may take just a bit to load.

Enjoy!

Trendsetter Yarn Tasting

On a personal note:

When our daughter, Niqua was in High School, she was THE varsity pitcher from her freshman to her junior year. This meant that she pitched just about every game. Dutch spent many, many hours teaching her how to pitch and practicing each and every move. I spent countless hours on the bleachers cheering her on while I was crocheting many blankets to keep warm and to keep my hands occupied. My never ending need for yarn for these blankets ultimately led to our starting a yarn business for ourselves.
Time has moved on and now our son-in-law and our daughter are teaching their daughter to pitch and again I sit on the sidelines and knit.
I wonder where God will lead us this time around.....

13 "In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling. Exodus 15:13
