Local Yarn Store Day is almost here!! Stores across North America (and even in Australia!) have limited edition Koigu products to celebrate. You can find the full list of participating LYS’s here>>
We are featuring a few local yarn stores that have sent us photos and told us how they are making #LYSDAY2025 special! Make sure to check out your LYS to see what they will be doing this Saturday, April 26th.
Shabby Sheep & Ewe
The Shabby Sheep & Ewe is a mother/daughter owned & operated LYS in Columbus Indiana and a new Koigu stockist.
They currently carry KPPM Pencil Boxes, Paint Cans, & a few neutral colors of KPPM single skeins. Plus special edition Koigu sock boxes.
To celebrate LYS Day, they will have free patterns with yarn purchase, including a store sponsored free copy of the Venation Shawl with purchase of any Pencil Box. Berroco Summer Sesame Trunk Show, and a door prize drawing for a $50 store gift card.
Mont Tricot
Mont Tricot is a beautiful store located in the ski town of Sutton, Quebec. They have a wide variety of Koigu yarn bases and kits available in their store year round!
The owner, Lucinda, created a fun new pattern using the limited edition Koigu yarn for LYS Day! The “Love Your LYS” shawl is knit with Koigu Minna (sport weight 75% Merino, 15% Cashmere, 10% Silk, only available for LYS Day) and Koigu Sofie (lace weight 70% Kid mohair, 30% Silk.)
Kits are available now complete with a Koigu canvas tote and cute needle stoppers. The pattern is included in the kits and will also be released on Ravelry separately after this weekend.
Michigan Fine Yarns
Michigan Fine Yarns is an amazingly well stocked, family-owned store in Livonia, Michigan. They are a Koigu wall store with countless colourways of Koigu KPPPM yarn.
They are also carrying special LYS day Koigu sock boxes, pencil boxes and limited edition Koigu Minna yarn (sport weight 75% Merino, 15% Cashmere, 10% Silk).
A special #LYSDay2025 addition MFY just announced, is their Cosmo in Bloom Knit Along with Koigu yarn! Kits available now online and in-store. If you can’t order today, keep your fingers crossed that some of these special kits will still be available on Saturday! The exact Koigu yarn is a mystery, but you’ll select a color family, and each kit includes a custom Cosmo flower inspired stitch marker and project pouch that coordinates.
