April 2025 happenings and LYS Day!


 
 
 
Happy April! Is it spring yet?!?
Hey there fiber friends! Please be sure to read and note some very fun and very important things happening at Ewe & You this month!!!
First of all... We will be Closed April 15th!!!! That is a Tuesday so please make a note. The rest of that week, I will be unavailable but the shop will be OPEN. I pray you are all yarn emergency free that week. Normal hours and lessons will resume after Easter. 
Then it's the biggest #yarnparty of the year... Local Yarn Store Day! Be sure to plan to come see us on Saturday, April 26th! There will be a few more emails about it this month with previews and details leading up to the big day. Also, keep your eyes on our Social media pages for peeks!
Scroll down to the bottom for info on the Stash Swap Sale coming in May!
There are no new KALs or CALs starting this month, however, both will be back in May using some of the LYS Day patterns! 

What is Local Yarn Store Day?!?!
It's one of our favorite days of the Yarn Lovers Year!!! It is a day to celebrate our love of knitting, crochet, and all yarn-related interests with your favorite Local Yarn Stores. Our day will be full of fiber fun, which includes a Trunk Show with KnittenWord, exclusive FREE patterns with yarn purchases, and some other fun things like swag and door prizes. Come and celebrate with us all day Saturday, April 26th from 10 am to 5pm!

Our friend Lor from Knitten Word will be with us all day on LYS Day! She dyed us up a special color just for the day! So we had to create an exclusive pattern just for it of course! More on those secrets later... I promise you'll love it! 


What's Happening at Luppoleto Brewery this Month...

KNIT NIGHT 

Knit Night is open to everyone no matter what kind of maker you are!  Join us on April 10th, the 2nd Thursday of the month for great drinks, maybe your favorite food truck, and of course fiber fun! It starts at 6:30 pm!!!!

This month's food truck for Knit Night is Fat City Kid. They are always a Knit Night favorite!

There is no Needle Felting this month, but mark your calendar now for May 10th. The project will be announced in next month's newsletter. 


 The Stash Swap Sale...

        Our biggest charity event of the year is coming the first weekend of May! 

                                               What is the Stash Swap Sale? 

Each year we receive donations for many reasons. Mostly yarn, but also any other fiber-arts related items. As these donations come in we organize them into bags of similar fibers, colors, or even by brand of yarn. Sometimes it's partial balls, others enough yarn for a full sweater or blanket. 

Then it's all priced anywhere from $1 to $50 and the occasional $70 bag if it's REALLY good! 

You never know what treasure you might find! AND it is all for Charity!

This year we are sponsoring Project Linus. This would be a great opportunity to grab yarn to make a blanket for them and at a great price too! We are now an official drop off location for Project Linus and will take hand made crochet, knit, quilted and fleece tied blankets all year long. They also need monetary donations to cover shipping and other expenses which is what the proceeds of the Stash Swap Sale will go towards. 

Swap Sale Hours are:

FRIDAY 5/2 6:30pm to 9pm (These are special after shop hours)

SATURDAY 5/3 10am to 5pm

SUNDAY 5/4 11am to 4pm

This is a CASH ONLY EVENT! 

We are also collecting any donations of yarn or other fiber-arts related items through May 1st. Anything dropped off after that will go into next year's sale. 


Our Open Sunday for April will be the 27th from 11am to 4pm. Some of the LYS Day promotions may be available that day, but not all. Hope to see you then!
