I’m finally attending my first yarny event! The Central Kansas Yarn Hop is in less than two weeks. I’ve started by making a budget and pulling projects requirements for which I need yarn.
- Sweater/vest quantity for Jellybean in Royal Blue or Teal
- Sport weight sock yarn in hubby friendly colors
- Fingering weight sock yarn for me 😄 (possibly a merino/cashmere/nylon combo)
- Wild card for something special for yours truly
I’ve also started a game plan and travel route for hitting five of the 10 shops. The only thing I don’t know if I’m flying solo or or if I can find a fiber friend to go with. I’ve put out feelers.
I’m terribly excited for my first “festival” as it’s the closest I’m going to get to a Rhinebeck or Stitches for the foreseeable future. What is your favorite yarn event?

How interesting! I have never heard of such an event, but it sounds like fun. Good luck and enjoy! (PS – If I lived in Kansas not NJ I would go with you. Just an FYI! )
Thanks! I did find someone to hit at least two stops and have lunch with me 👍🏻
That looks fun! I’m in the KCMO area so I might have to see if I can make it out that way.
It sounds like a lot of fun!!! I can’t wait to see what you buy.
I went a couple years ago and had a blast. Have fun!
Merino cashmere sounds wonderful. Good luck.
