EVENTS

World Wide Knit in Public Day

Saturday, June 8th
Saturday, June 8th through Sunday, June 16th is designated World Wide Knit in Public Week.

Anacapa Fine Yarns is going to be hosting WWKIP Day on Saturday, June 8th. Many of us knit in public on a regular basis, but this is an opportunity to knit in public in force!

This year we are going to 'hang out' at the Coffee Bean at the corner of Main and Telephone, from 11AM to 3PM. Last year we went to the Coffee  Bean in the Pacific View Mall, but we think being on the corner of Main and Telephone will be even more 'in public' then the mall, and if you have a yarn
emergency, it's right down the street from the shop!

9th Anniversary Celebration and Bag Sale

Anacapa Fine Yarns will be celebrating its ninth anniversary on Saturday, June 15th from 10AM to 5PM. It's incredible to think that we have been here for nine years now! Please join us for this special day. We will have door prizes, raffles, snacks, and fiber fun. We will once again offer bags of yarn on sale for 30-60% off (Saturday and Sunday). Come early for best selection. Doors open at 10AM

Ventura County Fair

Fair Entries and Demonstration Volunteers

The Ventura County Fair will be here soon. The fair dates this year are July 31st through August 11th. This years' theme is 'Boots, Barns & Banjos'. If you are a Ventura County resident, you can submit your projects in a variety of categories. You can provide inspiration for all of us who love meandering through the Home Arts Building admiring what others create. Make Anacapa Fine Yarns proud. Show your stuff!!  

Anacapa Fine Yarns will provide knitting demonstrations in the Home Arts Building at the fair. We have lots of fun talking to people about knitting and crochet and letting them know about the shop. We will be looking for volunteers to help us with our demonstration. Dates of the demos are yet to be determined, but it will include weekends of the fair plus some dates during the week. If interested, call the shop for more details. A sign-up sheet will be available starting in July.
