Prudence Mapstone

An all-too-short visit from the widely, well-known freeform crocheter, Prudence Mapstone, certainly beautified the shop today! Prudence's work in crochet is legendary, and she was lodging nearby for the few days conducting workshops locally to students who had travelled from all over country to see her and gain technical skills and inspiration from her vision for fiber.

Reports from the attendees were glowing--lots of inspiration, color, and and work to create some of the unique elements and pieces that together might be singly or used in combination to create fiber masterpieces. This was a reunion of sorts also, having been in Prudence's first class, held now many years ago. What a privilege to have a visit with the Marvelous Mapstone!

Debbie Bliss and Nell Bliss Store Selfie!

It is with great pleasure that All Points Yarn welcomed world-renown knitwear designer Debbie Bliss and her daughter, Nell Bliss to the shop. Although they were on their way to Seattle Mariners 2014 Stitch 'n' Pitch event, they took a moment to stop in, meet customers, chat together briefly, and take a breath from their hectic schedule.

The Debbie Bliss pattern lines and yarn name brand are very familiar to many knitters and crocheters, so it is fantastic to finally meet the truly inspiring lady behind them. Nell Bliss is a creative force to be contended with also: look for more of her youthful, innovative designs in upcoming issues of Debbie Bliss magazine!

All Points Yarn was graced by the appearance of Helen and Norman Koshak of Newton's Yarn Country during the recent Vogue Knitting Live event. Long-time yarn manufacturers, designers, and instructors, these two are among the most well known and inspiring maker-merchants creating yarns in the United States today. Each year, Newton's Yarn Country holds two national-level sales and educational events featuring hand and machine knitting, weaving, and crochet classes, as well as classes for Softbyte's DesignaKnit and Cochenille's software programs. These well-attended seminars feature instructors from across the nation and North America. Newton's website is www.newtons.com, and there you'll see their shop's events and class schedule. Who knows? They may be visiting your part of the country soon!

Mary Anne Oger Makes a Stop!

May 27th was especially festive with the visit of Mary Anne Oger, machine knitter extraordinaire! She was on her way to a regional machine knitting seminar, and made a short stop. What a great break! You'll know Mary Anne from her magazine, KnitWords, and most recently her articles for Knit 'n' Style. Her current, simple to understand designs appeal to beginning machine knitters as well as the more experienced! Her web site is www.knitwords.com.

Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Mably Visit All Points Yarn

On October 8th, Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Mably made an impromptu visit to All Points Yarn! How exciting is that!? In our all too brief couple of hours, Kaffe talked about Rowan Colourscape yarn's new colorways, patterning, and designer's inspirations. Brandon showed off a new scarf design, and we compared notes on design publishing. The visit was a short, but sweet wonderful time! Thanks so much to them!

All Points Yarn offers wonderful beginning to advanced classes in hand knitting, crochet, machine knitting, needlepoint, embroidery, felting, dyeing, and more. All Points Yarn is a center for excellence in the needle arts, assisting customers in all phases of their working with fiber:

Thanks to our wonderful local community of knitters, crocheters, and stitchers from the areas in and around Des Moines, including West Seattle, Burien, Sea-Tac, Federal Way, Kent, and Renton, the busy airline personnel and travelers visiting on their way to and from Sea-Tac International Airport, and the diverse youth and senior communities and groups in the area!

features of the complete customer service experience provided at All Points Yarn.
All Points Yarn carries a broad selection of products and yarns for all uses, from dozens of suppliers, such as Brown Sheep, Noro, Knitting Fever, King Cole, Ella Rae, Filatura di Crosa, and Yarn Country Yarns to name a few, and has offerings from the classic producers like Lion Brand, Red Heart, and Bernat, etc., that you won’t find in the large department or liquidation stores.

All Points Yarns features the fine Addi brand lines of needles, bamboo needles from Clover, and SeeKnit, and popular brands Denise, and Brittany. All Points Yarn also brings in accessories and products directly from their manufacturers, whether from Italy, France, or wherever around the world these treasures are found.

So why the name “All Points Yarn”? This name resulted from the sense of global connectedness, wishing to be local focal point for fiber in a world of fiber activities. From the universe of symbols like the compass rose, we chose the yarn ball to signify the handmade, personal touch of fiber and making we associate with yarn. We’re generating a unique placement in the constellation of businesses selling yarn. Across time and continents, All Points Yarn knits together the community of new and learned fiber artists alike. Pleasant, Excellent Customer Service is our hallmark!
