Hints of cool weather are in the news, so we're getting excited down here! Really...it could be in the 60's next week!!! 😄

The holidays are upon us and we're ready to help.  LOTS of new yarns and colors are everywhere in the shop. There are also new toys, bags and accessories from our talented group of ladies! 




AND as always, the Sit-n-Knit area is ready to lend you a chair to sit back, enjoy a few friends and chillax in...

The Lamb's Loom, more than a yarn shop, we're a ministry and a mindset!

So, grab your needle, hook or loom and join us! Come make a few new friends and share a little yarn fun.

As usual, our #SitnKnitRoom will be open for anyone who would like to join us here at the shop, too!

AND....please tag us at #LambsLoomFun and share your #WWKiPDay2018 pics and stories!

See you on the 9th....wherever you are!

Well, it seems the "spring" weather here has already sprung us forward into summer, so we are all chillin' in the Sit-n-Knit area and you're welcome to join us anytime...we would love to have you!

AND we want you to meet our new Donation Coordinators, Deb and Peggy. They will be working closely with everyone to help facilitate our growing donation chest! Last year your donated items went to 12 different organizations all around the world...PLUS the items that were given locally to family,  friends and neighbors!
As your donations continue to pour in and overflow the donation chest, we want to say...THANK YOU! 
Our next two shipments are coming up, if you have anything you would like to add. 

1~~~ a mission trip to Kenya. We are supplying hats for all the kids in the village! That's right around 200 darling children. The request is for bright and fun colors! 
2~~~ ongoing donations of shawls and scarves to be sent to China with Peggy & Jon with Global Partners in Hope.

We have also a few new yarns and colors coming for the summer months! (sneak peek!) New items arriving often, so hope you'll come enjoy a little time here with us!



Thanks again for all YOU do to help make this ministry possible....we are blessed to be a blessing!
