Four Days, 30 Miles, 12 shops, 600 Crawlers: North Shore Yarn Crawl 2010 Recap!
by: Filed under Events
If you participated in the first first annual North Shore Yarn Crawl, you know just how much fun it was. Everyone who walked in the door was having an absolute blast exploring all the North Shore fiber goodness. As you know, it poured rain the entire time but it didn’t slow folks down or spoil their fun.
Each shop had something different to offer and I think the shop owners had as much fun as the Crawlers. And boy did we have Crawlers! Just about 600 of you joined us over the four days. A few who completed all 12 shops looked like they might actually be crawling by the time they were done, but they still had a smile on their face and some fabulous fiber finds in their hands.
So many folks have been asking for a wrap up and info about the winners. It’s been so hectic this month and we’ve all been working hard to notify winners so apologies for the slow update. The crawl had at least 50 winners and probably more than I even know about because each shop offered different prizes and promotions of their choosing. I know that someone won something in our shop every hour!
So congrats to:
Nancy, Rachel, Sally, Kelly, Aaron, Nancy, Karen, Deb, Nancy, Lisa, Cindy, Elaine, Diane, Linda, Christina, Jess, Carol, Teresa, Tricia, Lauren, Karen, Mary, Abby, Mary Jo, Louise, Gail, Allison, Jean, Kelly, Kelly, Sheila, Janette, and sooo many more!
Many have also asked if there will be a repeat next year and never fear we’re all working on plans for Yarn Crawl 2011! If you’re interested in staying up to date as we get closer to a 2nd annual event, sign up at www.ayarncrawl.com for updates specifically about a crawl next year.

The crawl was awesome!!! Thank you so much for organizing this event. Please, please….choose the dates for the next one really soon. My church’s prayer shawl ministry group wants to rent a bus so we can crawl in style!!
A few of the members of our crochet group attended the Yarn Crawl and came to our meeting and showed what they got. They just raved about how wonderful it was! Can’t wait for the next one!
