Smitten with Mittens? Us too!

Smitten with mittens! Mittens are great for quick projects for yourself, the grandkids or a warm gift for loved ones, friends or coworkers! Check out all of our choices!

Super Bulky Mittens are great using only 33 yards per mitten of super bulky yarn! These mittens work up in a couple of hours and we have some fabulous yarn to make beautiful mittens in a jiffy! For example, who wouldn't like a pair of mittens made from hand-painted Desire Silk and Wool yarn - each skein makes 2 pairs of mittens - and it is on special! Each skein of Desire is now $29.95 while stock lasts - that's only $15 per pair of hand-dyed mittens!


If Warm and Fuzzy Mittens are on your list, we have a fabulous pattern using one strand of Superwash Worsted yarn and one strand of Kid Classic or Mohair. The instructions work up for Small - Large hands and every pair looks beautiful in lots of different color combos!

Like fingerless mitts? Us too! Check out the Weekend Warmers Fingerless Mitts Pattern made from one skein of the hand-dyed Superwash Worsted or the Tranquility Cashmere Mitts made from only one skein of Ivy Brambles 4-ply Cashmere!

Start a new pair of mittens today and put a smile on someones face tomorrow! Have a great day and happy fibering!

Chemo Cap Drive

From the beginning, we have knit and crocheted chemo caps for our friends, some known and many unknown, who struggle with feeling well while undergoing cancer treatments. We encourage our knitters and crocheters to take a moment and knit or crochet a cap or two to make a difference in someone's day. We continue to collect and donate caps to the variety of facilities as the are needed.

If you would like to make a chemo cap for our drive, the patterns are available free in our shop or you can visit http://www.headhuggers.org/ and easily go through their patterns and the downloads are free from their website. Caps can be dropped off at our shop or mailed to Yarn and Fiber Co, 11 Manchester Road, Derry, NH 03038.

Thanks everyone for your past donations, future donations and for the donations you are casting on right now!
