Berroco Fall/Winter Yarn Tasting Party
Be the first to see the five brand new yarns coming out this fall from Berroco!
What is a Yarn Tasting Party? It's a fun opportunity to learn about and try out several new yarns during a time of Social Stitching with other fiber friends. We'll have some fun, and you get to help us decide which of these new yarns to bring into the shop this fall!
We will also be hosting a Berroco Trunk Show at this time with many samples featuring the five new yarns (you won't want to miss them!).
What's Included:
- Berroco Fall Yarn Tasting Kit: Mini balls (10-20g) of the five new fall/winter yarns - Merino 401, Millstone Tweed, Gimlet, Hearthside, and Bestie. Plus a seasonal favorite, Renew.
- The new Fall/Winter Lookbook
- Yarn tasting menu with full details on each yarn
- 50% off coupon to cast on for a new pattern
- Assortment of beverages and light refreshments
- Prize drawing for a Berroco kit featuring a new yarn + pattern book ($45 value)
- 20% off any orders placed for these featured yarns during the event! (there may be a $5 drop shipping fee for some products)
- Plus 10% off any in stock Berroco purchase during the event
What to Bring: Knitting needles or crochet hooks in a variety of sizes to work on swatches
This is not an instructive class, just a fun get together and opportunity to learn more about and play with pretty YARN!
What can you do with your kit? The first thing we love it for – Swatching! Yes we know, it’s not very glamorous but swatching tells us so much about how a yarn will behave. We love that you can use it to get started on a knit or crochet pattern before ordering the full quantity! Berroco has also designed a few free Yarn Tasting Kit Patterns. While created with older yarn tasting kits, these evergreen patterns can be adapted for all yarn tasting kits. There are also several fun patterns on Ravelry!
