Local Yarn Store Day is a special day to celebrate your beloved local crafting spaces, communities, and shops. Visit your local yarn stores on April 26th!
We have new and special edition Koigu products coming to stores near you. Plan your day with this guide of which Koigu LYS Day products are where:
The Estonian song & dance festivals are happening this upcoming summer and Kersti and Merike will be attending! Koigu's history is deeply rooted in Estonian handicrafts & traditions. Our family originated from Estonia and continues to celebrate our culture. Estonian folk festivals are filled with colourful embroidered and woven traditional folk costumes and fresh flower crowns. This month’s Koigu Collector Colour is inspired by the FOLK FESTIVAL.
I think everyone in the Northern Hemisphere, after months of snow and cold, is pining after a green spring right about now. This month’s collector colour is inspired by the garden movement, environmentalism and hope for a greener, cleaner future.
The excessively flamboyant and ornate style of Rococo emerged in France in the 1720s. It remained the predominant design style for most of the 18th century with sweeping pastel colours and golden details reigning supreme. This month’s collector colour is inspired by this period of gorgeous design, a classic peach terracotta with pops of royal hues and gold.
You may have heard of Ambah already since she is quite active in the knit design world and she designed the Venatian Shawl with Koigu and of course the newly released Kentia Wrap. We love working with Ambah.
We are featuring a few local yarn stores that have sent us photos and told us how they are making #LYSDAY2025 special! Make sure to check out your LYS to see what they will be doing this Saturday, April 26th.
