Want to be part of a great adventure in 2010? Become a member of Crown
Mountain Farms fiber or yarn clubs. Registration is now in it's second
week. The clubs have free shipping worldwide. The "Fiber Of The Month"
club and the "Knitting For Fun" club both offer different
colorways you can play with and you may choose different yarns or
fibers. Discounts of 5% or 10% are available on purchases during 2010
on our website depending on the duration of your membership.
If you love sock hop yarn and were used to buy it through our website
this option will no longer be available. We created the "Sock Hop Yarn"
club and only members of this club will be able to purchase the sock
hop yarn in 2010. One good reason to join the "Sock Hop Yarn" club!

Happy holidays from Purlescence Yarns! We're in full-blown holiday
mode, knitting and weaving gifts for our loved ones. Are you set with
yours? Our new favorite yarn is Cascade's 128 Superwash, a chunky
Merino that knits up into beautiful gifts in no time at all. We've got
a gorgeous color selection in the shop with more set to arrive this
week!
