Big Changes at Moore Yarn!

If you follow Moore Yarn at Airport Plaza on Facebook,       then you have already heard the news...

We're not selling yarn anymore! 

You can buy your yarn anywhere - from Sheep & Wool festivals, LYS & Big Box stores to a plethora of online sites such as Indie Dyers and Yarn Manufacturers, many who previously only sold through brick & mortar LYS and now have opened their own online stores. 

And while many people love to come in and touch the yarn a fair percentage of them then go home and order it online, with free shipping and home delivery. We have decided to focus on what you can't get in other places. 

Big Box stores, online websites and many Yarn shops do not offer the level of service that is available at Moore Yarn!

  • Help sessions regardless of the source of your yarn. The first 15 minutes are free! Longer sessions are available from $15 for 16-30 minutes up to $60 for 2 hours.
  • On Demand classes! Private Lessons = Personal attention! We have always run our classes even if only 1 person signed up, so On Demand just makes it official. Our website, Moore Yarn's, has been completely re-done to allow you to  find the classes you want to take and register right then! Here are just a few of the classes that are available;

Classes in a group? Sure! If you know others that want to take a specific class together, let us know and we will make the arrangements. Class sizes are limited to 8.

What else??? Finishing?

We have expanding our finishing to include not only basic blocking and seaming, but also WIP/UFO completion. Bring in your project and we'll give you a price. Need it by a specific date? We will work with you to try to make it happen. Stop by with your project or book a consultation session to speak with Flo & Mitzy about what you need and how we can help you. A book session ensures that they will be available for you and consultation session fees will be deducted from work quote.

How else can we help you? 

Just let us know... We're here for you when others aren't...
