Happy Halloween!!!  I’ve hammered out Yarn Harvest’s schedule for the Holiday Season. But first, some sad news.  The fiber mill that I was spinning my cashmere line of recycled yarn has closed its doors.  Sustainable Fibers out in Elgin was the only fiber mill in all of Texas and it breaks my heart that they [...]

Hi all, There has been some interesting developments over the past couple of weeks. From last post, my plan was to spend the summer spinning a whole bunch of different colors of cashmere, so that we’d have truckloads of it in time for the fall’s first cold front.  Unfortunately, the mill that we use to [...]

I have been a tad bit nervous about our lack of online sales since the holidays.  It was definitely a case of, “it’s quiet… too quiet.”  It turns out that the nervousness was for good reason.  I just found out that the online store has not been working properly since the holidays.  My sincerest apologies [...]

After all the cold weather in February, March is rolling right along with some warmer weather.  That means that it is time to update Yarn Harvest’s farmer’s market calendar.  This coming Saturday, March 5th, will be the last market until mid April. During the summer, we will be setting up at the Barton Creek Farmer’s [...]

Something has come up and unfortunately we will not be at the Barton Creek Farmer’s Market this Saturday, January 15. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.  We’ll be back the week after though. Best, Greg

This looks like it’s going to be a fun, fun event.  The groups Knotty Knitters and Knitta Please are doing a public art installation using knitted coverings for trees outside of the Blanton Art Museum on UT Campus.  There is an introductory meeting to get everyone started this coming Saturday, January 8th from 1:00-2:30pm at [...]

Happy 2011 y’all! I hope everyone is having a splendid new year.  So far, so good for me.  I’ve been busy brushing away the holiday hangover and getting back into the swing of things.  And that means that we’ve finally gotten our recycled cashmere up for sale on our online store. Along with Sustainable Fibers [...]

It’s just days until we debut our recycled cashmere yarn at the Eastside Knit Night.  To celebrate, we’re going to be raffling off 3 hanks of our cashmere yarn, along with the pattern for a hooded scarf, and a pair of size 13 needles (which is more than a $75 value!).  The raffle tickets will [...]

Whew!  Had some great times over the weekend of October 8-10.  We had a great turn-out during ACL and got to say hi to many, many knitters during the Hill Country Yarn Crawl.  And my brother’s wedding went off without a hitch (pun intended). So now, on to the next fun holiday event.  We’ve teamed [...]
