News
• Our New York store has a new location and a new look
Our new location is on the corner of Broadway and John St., right next to the Hallmark Card store:
181 Broadway, Fifth Floor, New York, NY 10007
• Portland, ME and Web Store
We have a new section of our store and website that will be devoted to yarns from Maine. We have sourced some beautiful hand dyes from Done Roving Farm, Pine Woods Yarns and Eastport Yarn that we think offer something different as far as colors and fibers and also showcase what can be done locally by talented fiber makers.
• We have new books available in our Portland, ME and online Web Stores. See our expanded selections including:
Plymouth Yarn Books,
Socks, Wraps, Hats and Accessories,
