Ewe & You Exclusive Pattern Featuring Hand Dyed Yarn by KnittenWord!!!
This LYS Day is extra special because we designed a new cowl just for you! The Steorra Cowl uses two skeins of hand-dyed yarn on Knitten Word's Dalia Fingering Base. The best part? You can make 2 cowls out of the 2 skeins without worrying about "yarn chicken"! For LYS Day only, if you purchase the yarn from Knitten Word at her Trunk Show, you will get The Steorra Cowl pattern FREE! (Trunk Show purchases do not count toward in-store LYS Day offers.)
ALL the other things.....
Every purchase will get you entered into our door prize drawing. For any $30 minimum purchase, you will receive an "I love my LYS" bag tag with "If found, please return to Ewe & You Fiber Arts", on the other side. These tags were made by Katrinkles, and we are very excited to share them with you! It is our little way of saying Thank You for choosing us as your LYS!!!
The official Local Yarn Store Day pins are made by TNNA (The National Needle Arts Association), the founder of LYS Day. These pins are fairly exclusive. To earn your pin spend $100 on your in-store purchase. 
Both bag tags and pins will be available while supplies last!
Patterns, Patterns, Patterns!!!!
LYS Day offers lots of FREE Patterns with yarn purchase.
First is The Trust Fall Shawl by Jessica Ayes at Double the Stitches. Our sample was knit in Juniper Moon, Zooey it took 3 balls. Zooey is one of our newest yarns in the shop, It's a lovely linen and cotton blend. A great alternative would be shop favorite Marmel. Marmel is a cotton acrylic blend and has some bold color choices. We will have a few kits available in both yarns, or you can mix and match your own. 
The next pattern is by Casapinka and is called simply, Local Yarn Cowl. Her pattern uses 2 skeins of fingering weight yarn. Our sample used Huasco Cotton in Kettle Dyed and painted. We will have a few kits made in this yarn as well, but look forward to seeing what combinations you choose.
These two designers are always so generous in offering patterns to Local Yarn Stores each year. We hope that you enjoy their patterns, and will also support them throughout the year.
The owner of Universal Yarn, Yonca Ozbelli, has shared a pattern she wrote with us for LYS Day. It's very lovely top called the Wind and Waves top. It's written using Cotton Supreme, but we will be making it in our favorite, Bamboo Pop. Bamboo Pop is a little lighter weight yarn than Cotton Supreme but with the generous sizing of the pattern and a needle adjustment, this should work out perfectly. We are happy to help you make a great yarn decision for this project. This pattern is not available online but is an LYS exclusive. Our shop sample won't be complete by LYS Day but will be available to sneak a peek at. 
Berrocco has offered both a knit and a crochet pattern for LYS Day. Both versions are made using Vintage, which we do not carry at this time, however, we have some great substitution ideas for you! We have begun working on the crochet version for you to see on Saturday. It is done using mosaic crochet.
