Here in Missouri, spring is warming up, and despite the rain storms, it's beginning to feel like summer. 

The changing of the seasons we all know very well, but with COVID, the changes are unsettling to say the least.  Here in our warehouse, we went from a staff of 3, down to 1, me.  Brett is helping out, and at least we are getting our shipments out on time.   

As for the future of our yarn warehouse, we aren't sure.   At this time we are not open to the public.  We don't have staff to meet the COVID rules, nor do we have staff to manage this very large floor.  While things are changing, we will still be here, and will continue to be.  But the "open to the public" hours are still under consideration.

If you need anything, as usual, just email me at angelikas@yarn-store.com or text/phone me at 816-461-5505 with any questions.​​​​​​​

Cascade Fixation

Shannon, of Cascade Yarns, after the encouragement of one of her yarn stores, as done a lot of researching and swatching, and designed a MASK PATTERN.  Shannon has done a single layer mask, as well as a double layer mask.   

The multi colors and the splash shades make up into fun masks, and even the little ones will love wearing them.   Top stitch designs into them such as eyes, or teeth.   Do a snowman theme, or a jack o-lantern theme. Or any character your little one loves.

As for adults, maybe your favorite team colors, or simply the color that makes your eyes pop!  If you are sewing masks, Fixation makes a great stretchy band too.
