"Stitches" Events are held in the South, West, and East

What do you need to do?

Let us know if you would like to coordinate with other CIABA member farms

in your region and do what we did!

We are working on a protocol to help you set up and manage this oportunity.

contact us if you are interested in working together in your region.

• You must be a CIABA member or join so that you are!
  

• Members may submit up to 50 skeins of  alpaca yarn
  

from your farm. Please put up your best!

Enjoy looking at a few highlights from this event!

In the event that all of your yarn does not sell, we will contact you to coordinate the most cost effective return.

Wondering how to label your yarn?

For future events:

Label your yarn with the fiber content, the grade of fiber if you know it, your contact information, (be sure to include state), the yarn gage, sport, DK, fingering, etc., the number of yards, and the price.

We want people to know where the yarn came from and we assume you want them to have your contact information.  If you have any kits with directions or patterns, we will take those also.
