More To The Story

 You've heard us say it many times, "More than a yarn shop, we’re a ministry and a mindset!" and that does sum it up well. That’s our “slogan” here at the Lamb’s Loom! Now, it is true that we have a pretty cool yarn and gift shop and truly enjoy all the fun time in the Sit-n-Knit room, but there’s more to the yarn than soft fibers.

Every year The Lamb’s Loom collects donated knit and handmade items and then distributes them to people in need all over the world. The donation chest is at the heart of all we do. There are people who will receive their gift of warmth from deep South Texas (and we do have a lot of warmth to pass around!)  and that is a wonderful thing. In addition to that, we have learned in our years of doing this, that there is more to these stories. Wrapped inside that hat, or scarf is the care and love of the Maker. It is a gift of encouragement to those who need courage. It is a gift of prayers in every stitch for the recipient. These items that are given are the tangible gifts of caring for another.

At our Yarn Tasting this year we did our "big reveal" of the total number of items that were donated...

That is just over 1,000 more items than last year!!!!

Everyone is welcome to join us in the journey of spreading a little joy around our world. You don’t have to knit or crochet, either. The yarn and gift shop help fund this mission, along with your tax deductible donations.

We do hope you’ll come visit and hear a few stories of the encouragement these gifts have been to so many around the world and become a PEG! 

Pray, Encourage, Give 
….Remember, The Lamb’s Loom is not just a yarn shop, it’s a ministry and a mindset.

The Lamb’s Loom is located at 1102 Tamarack in McAllen. We are open Tuesday thru Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  Additional parking is available in the rear via Upas Ave.You can also find us on FaceBook or Instagram.

Yarn Tasting Kickoff 2020

Come celebrate with us as we kick off another great year at The Lamb’s Loom! Your generosity over the last year is what encourages us all in the mission efforts here. In 2018 we surpassed the donations received by over 1000, so that means over 3200 handmade knitted & crocheted items were given to those in need in 2018! We do want to extend a special thank you to everyone who comes in and adds so many lovely items to the donations chest! You are a blessing to soooo many!!!!

 We are excited to see what this year holds and grateful for your participation in what is ahead. Our 2020 kickoff is our Sixth Annual Yarn Tasting when we will announce the final donation chest count of 2019. If you’ve never been to our Yarn Tasting, you really should join us on Saturday, January 11th!
