Welcome to the "Have Yarn - Will Travel" Studio blog. Our little business of teaching, children, teens and adults the fine art of knitting and crocheting has been growing by leaps and bounds!
"Have Yarn - Will Travel" has been in existence since November 2005. We have taught hundreds the fine art of knitting and on occasion, crocheting in the Northern Illinois public libraries.
Originally, the company started out with instructors, Kathleen and Carol. We started the business very small, but has expanded. Sadly, Carol's husband accepted a new job in Canada, so Carol had to leave the business. Kathleen was crushed by the news and the idea of not only losing her best friend, but it seemed as though Have Yarn - Will Travel was going to perish and no longer exist.
Kathleen thought about this for days and then thought of a terrific idea...why not ask Mary Beth, your wonderful, beautiful sister! And she accepted gladly.
Now, are they not only busy as ever with workshops that are scheduled well into the fall of 2008 but they have decided to open a studio! The studio will provide an area to conduct lessons as well as sell yummy yarns and all of the accessories to create masterpieces!

Hi Kathy,
Best of luck to you and Mary! I wish I wasn't so far away. We could have been the knitting trio.
Load of love... Patty
