The year is flying by and SUMMER is here already!!! 

The Donation Chest continues to overflow and we are so very grateful!

Make-Along hats are a real treat to see coming in every month with their creative touches to match the butterfly theme. Ann is creating some very special hats with the BFF themes that are a real inspiration! Bookmark this page for  new themes as they are added every month!

We are also making hats and scarves with the Ukrainian flag colors. Those will be sent to Poland this fall to help with mission groups there. 

Everyone is welcome to join in the fun and add your own wonderful ideas to your creations and #stitchitforward with us!

 

AND our Summer Stitches Classes are getting ready for your summer #YarnFun to begin! 

That's right, we are adding a series of "Next Step" classes to our ongoing Learn-to series of looming, knitting and crochet. * 

We are so excited to be adding to the class list for the summer. Our dear Shepherd Barbara will be offering one-on-one weaving workshops also!

There's something for everyone! So, give us a call and join our teaching teams this summer and add to your yarn fun!

(*see list of specific classes below)

And Denise took it a step further! 😉 She participated in our Anatomy of a Sock class last month and did it all! She took the class, chose yarn that matched the Make-Along theme for the month and then gave the socks to the Donation Chest! 

 

We continue to be so very grateful to all of our instructors! 💗 They freely give of their time and talents to encourage and teach others. We are blessed!

2022 Make-Along is HERE!

Last year we had a blast doing our first ever Make-Along! What's a Make-Along, you ask? It is a fun time of creation and giving, all wrapped into one! Every month we will provide inspiration based on our theme for the year. You then create an item for the Donation Chest at The Lamb's Loom. Our theme last year was Fine Fibered Friends ~ birds of all kinds that live here and migrate through the area. 

This year’s theme is BFFs, or Butterfly Flitty Friends. One of the many things that attract our Winter Texan friends to the area is to see all the wonderful birds that live here year around, and those that migrate thru the area. Our South Texas weather keeps the blooms blooming all year and that attracts the birds.

​So! Every month on our website we will introduce you to a different butterfly in the area, provide yarn suggestions and off you go! Make your favorite project like a hat, scarf, blanket or shawl for the Donation Chest every month. You are welcome to purchase your yarn here (that supports the mission, too!), or dive into your own stash and find something fun that works with the theme! All year we will celebrate those who participate with prizes and of course, HUGE thanks for being our BFF on this project and giving of your time to support and help so many. Check out the website for updates and new BFFs every month!!!
