OUR STORY
In 2006 our kids were in school ‘till 4pm and I was ready for a change. Personally I loved to playing with yarn and the sense of community that small business celebrates, makes me happy.
Why yarn? It's just like the hardware store my family owned; tools are tools no matter what your passion.
2007 proved to be the perfect year to open
Apple Yarns. Apples represent the great state of Washington and my Grandma made the best apple pies; Apple Pie Recipe. Apple Yarns it is.
