Classes
Beginning Knitting and Crochet: Beginning classes for knitting and crochet are scheduled one-on-one at your convenience during business hours. You may schedule lessons just for yourself, or for yourself and a few other friends. In beginning knitting, you will learn your stitches while you create a beautiful chunky yarn scarf. At the end of your mastery period, you'll have a fabulous accent you can actually use!
Classes a la carte: If you weren't able to attend a specific class, or you missed out entirely on one, here's your chance! Simply schedule the class topic of your choice at the time that's convenient for you.
How Much Do Classes Cost? At Vermilion Bay Yarn, we're all about getting you moving on your fiber projects and getting you going with new techniques. All classes (including beginning knitting and crochet) at VBYC are $20 plus materials. You do not pay each time you come in to continue the same class.
What's Available At Vermilion Bay
The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company is your local source for the fine yarns of Rowan, Classic Elite, South West Trading, Cascade, Plymouth, Schaefer, Malabrigo, Muench, GGH, Brown Sheep, Lana Grossa, Tilli Tomas, Universal, and many others! We offer high quality needles and hooks from Addi, Chiaogoo, Hiya-Hiya, and Brittany. Vermilion Bay Yarn (YOUR local yarn shop) is YOUR one stop for all your knitting and crochet notion needs: counters, holders, markers, darning eggs, tapestry needles, etc.
Knit Cafe: The Evening Fiber Art Group meets on Tuesdays from 6pm-8pm at the shop. Bring your project(s) and sit for as long as you like. Food, coffee, and soft drinks are always provided, and everyone is encouraged to add to the buffet.
Need something repaired? Favorite sweater with moth holes? Heirloom lace with a snag? Bring it in for an estimate.
Don't have time to knit or crochet it? The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company is your only local custom fiber art source! Please visit the shop for an estimate.
Knitting Parties at VBYC: Gather together 10 of your friends or colleagues and set a date/time for a knitting party at Vermilion Bay Yarn! Beginners and seasoned knitters can participate in the same party! Folks who've never knitted before will learn how and the experienced knitters work their own fun project! Contact the shop for details!
Our Return Policy
Now and then we purchase a bit too much, or decide that a different yarn might be better for a project than the one we selected. Here's how VBYC accomodates merchandise returns. This policy is also clearly displayed in the shop by the register. Thank you for your business!
Merchandise purchased at The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company may be exchanged/returned for shop credit only. No cash refunds. No exhanges/returns on special orders. Gift Certificates may not be redeemed for cash. Yarn presented for exchange must be odor-free and in new condition with the yarn band intact. Yarns wound into skeins are not accepted for exchange.
Knitting Rescue and Project Help
We are most willing to assist YOU, our customers, with quick help or to fix minor blemishes in your fiber work at no charge. As I see it, that's all part of what YOUR local yarn shop is about, especially if your project originated from VBYC. If you find yourself in need of frequent coaching on a particularly challenging project, or if you require detailed assistance with a project obtained elsewhere, we encourage you to make that project into a class ($20 fee applies) for the duration of your work.
Not the Typical Hat
And that's music to a knitter's ears! Here's something that breaks the mold -- not the typical brim-to-crown affair. We've all been admiring the fabulous cabled aviator on the cover of this season's Vogue Knitting! It caught my eye and kept my attention. This is no ho-hum design, but it's not a mind bender either. Best of all, it looks great and turns heads -- isn't that what we want our knitwear to do? It's about the fashion as much as about the practical qualities of the garments we create. And even more better than that: this hat does it simply by being a great design in a solid yarn with classic adornments: cables. Substance, and Vogue Knitting has delivered with this awesome topper! Eye caught and attention kept, I've completed the hat in about a
week's worth of off-and-on knitting. I used Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride for the project -- a wool/mohair blend -- with great results. Cables have crisp definition in this yarn, the back flap drapes properly, and the front flap (tacked to the crown) does not droop. Although I'm usually not a fan of pompoms, a well made, full flavor pompom really adds the right finial. On your next visit, be sure to examine the Cabled Aviator. Make one for yourself. You deserve it!
