Welcome to my Shop on the Web!  

 
New eBay Store!
I just opened a store on eBay, Sunset Creations Yarn-n-Fiber Shop! I will be listing most of the yarns I have, so if you ever wanted to see what wonderfully colorful yarns I carry and haven't been able to come to the shop, now's your chance!
 
Events Coming Up: Garfield, WA, annual May Day Festival on May 17th! The shop in Palouse will be closed, so please take note and come enjoy the sun in Garfield!
 
 
The Log Cabin Spin In went very well, despite the huge snow storm!  Thanks to all of you that were able to make it! I can only hope that next year will be better!
 
The dyeing class was a huge success!!! Thank you Kate and Martina!! I will post pictures soon!
Because it went so well, this class will become a regular feature during the warmer months, so that it can be conducted outside. So those of you that wanted to come, but couldn't make it, you will have more opportunities!  
   

My storefront has been open for business since November 4th, 2006 and has been well received. We carry Brown Sheep's Lamb's Pride, Nature Spun, Prairie Silk (recently discontinued) and Burly Spun yarns; Southwest Trading Company's Gianna, Pure, Amaizing and Karaoke yarns; Cherry Tree Hill's Superwash Merino DK, Potluck Bulky, Silken Mohair and Merino Lace yarns; Blue Ridge Silk Works various hand-dyed sock yarns and needle cases; and a few Garden Party yarns handspun by Juaquetta Holcomb; as well as local productions through consignment. If I don't have the color or the particular line of yarn you are looking for from any of these companies, I can order it for you. While we do not carry spinning equipment, yet, we do have various spinning fibers. There are handpainted rovings of superwash wool and also of 70 count merino; handpainted silk from Cherry Tree Hill; rovings of alpaca, shetland and a generic wool that is great for dyeing. There is washed mohair and plucked and clipped angora bunny.

 

We also carry a selections of books and magazines from Interweave Press. The magazines include Spin Off, Interweave Knits (also the special editions when they come out) and Interweave Crochet. 

 

We offer classes in: beginning knitting, crocheting and handspinning; make a beanie/cap and learn to use a circular needle and double pointed needles; socks; mittens; gloves; and a lace scarf. New classes will be added in the coming months.
