Help us fight Alzheimer's - June 4 & 5 | |
Meet us at the shop on Saturday June 4 and/or Sunday June 5 to help us seam blankets to be donated to memory care units and related facilities! | |
We're joining the fight against Alzheimer's. We do have a fundraising team set up, but our main goal is to create blankets for use in memory care units and other facilities where they'll be used and loved.
If you'd like to lend a hand, we need folks to knit or crochet 12" x 12" squares which will then be turned into blankets. Use any machine washable yarn in the color purple and send them to us at:
Ball & Skein
attn: Blankets
4210 Bridge St STE 6
Cambria, CA 93428
We would like the squares by Wednesday, June 1. We'll meet at the shop on Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5 to assemble the blankets! If you'd like to help, please let us know!

Stitching with Kris 2022 - October 7 - 9
Save the dates!
| |
(A place to sit and knit or crochet at the Squibb Houses) | Imagine spending three days in Cambria with an industry professional and life-long knitter and crocheter. Now imagine this in a beautiful Inn surrounded by people, like you, that also love to knit and crochet. That's the idea behind "Stitching with Kris." Think of it as a weekend knitting group. | |
|
We're finalizing the details for a relaxing, fun, fiber filled event in Cambria at The Squibb House & Black Barn, a beautiful, historic Inn located in the heart of Cambria's East Village within easy walking distance of the shop.
This event will start Friday afternoon, and includes time to get to know your fellow attendees as well as have plenty of time to enjoy Cambria. Bring a friend or that special someone as this is designed to be as flexible as possible, and the Inn could hardly be more inviting.
To Do:
1) Save the Date! October 7 - 9, 2022.
2) Sign up for first notices about the event, as spaces will be limited.

Our friends at Berroco have done their best to hold down pricing but due to everything you've heard about (and a few you may not know) pricing on most of their yarns will increase *slightly* on June 1. If you've been thinking about a new project, or just need more Ultra Wool or Remix - it's time to stock up! | (Corey Blanket knit in Ultra Wool Chunky) | |
Get your order in by Monday May 30th to make sure you get the current pricing! | |
(Etta in Summer Sesame 5237 Mint) | |
A beautiful piece is Etta, a great top knit with Summer Sesame from Berroco, a machine washable, striping, wool-free yarn you're sure to love.
Etta takes 2 - 5 balls of Summer Sesame, depending on Size. Details on the pattern page.
