Mrs I's Yarn Parlor has been serving the fiber lovers in the St. Croix Valley for nearly 4 years now. In that time, many new knitters/crocheters have emerged, ready to carry on a skill that has been part of the American tradition since this country began.
It's been so much fun to be part of the knitting world - and to know that the Yarn Parlor is regular stop for many. This 4th year will see some changes at the Parlor....more fair trade and Wisconsin/US grown yarns and needles - even other Wisconsin grown items like syrup and honey. More Bible Studies and movie nights, too. I'm also inviting every one to come in and knit with us......The stained glass windows, beautiful woodwork, and of course, yarn make Mrs. I's a great place to visit - and to hang out in for awhile. There's comfy chairs and coffee all the time. I hope you'll join us!
