Welcome

Finger Lakes Fibers has some wonderful new cottons, silks, and blends arriving for spring every day. Come in and see what we've got! And check out our fun new patterns. Try the new Tulip Sweater for kids kit or pattern (at right, modelled by Amy's daughter Ellie) in Dream in Color Yarns' Classy 100% wool superwash. Phone orders accepted.
	We have assembled a fantastic mix of traditional yarns and patterns for hand-knitting from leading national suppliers such as 100% cotton and wool/silk blends from Louisa Harding and Schaefer Yarn's wool, silk/wool blend, and cotton; and unique natural fibers from a variety of nearby farms and artists. We have Louet Euroflax sport weight linen (left) in many beautiful solid colors and blends; and their Gems Superwash merino in several weights.
Other popular yarns that we stock are Green Mountain Spinnery's Mountain Mohair and Comfort Cotton; Collinette Jitterbug hand-painted sock yarn; and Handmaiden and Fleece Artist silk and silk blend yarns. Also, we carry Lambs Pride (great for felting); Cascade (220 Wool and Sierra cotton/wool blend); Debbie Bliss; Mission Falls; Lopi; and Artful Yarns cotton, cotton blend, mohair, and more.
	We invite knitters, crocheters, and spinners to visit our shop on E. 4th St. in Watkins Glen , and see what we have gathered. Check out the other great things to do in the southern Finger Lakes Region, too. MONDAY NIGHT KNITTING IS BACK. Take 20% off anything you buy while knitting with us on Monday evenings
Jill Swenson says every month is sock month! Come in and ask any of our knowledgeable staff how to make socks like these using Schaefer Yarn handpaint "Lola" (100% merino wool Superwash) or any of our large selection of amazing sock yarns. Lorna's Laces Shepard Sock yarn is here! I had a great time in Chicago visiting their work room and selecting colors that I'm sure everyone here will love.

Please come by and knit or crochet with us. If you can't visit us in person, we'll mail you anything you need (free shipping!) We can also send you email updates on sales, classes, and new offerings - just sign up for our mailing list or send me an email.
