 Happy New Year! I wish you and yours a joyful and inspiring new year! This year my resolution is to spend less time on the web and more time reading and making. Here are some things people in Van are doing that is inspiring to me.
This week American Tapestry Alliance's Tapestry Unlimited Blog Tour that started on VY's blog last week continues with Rebecca Mezoff showing us how to blend colour using hatching. It's a super informative tutorial with two excellent videos. This tour is really giving you some solid tapestry weaving skills. Check it out and don't forget to enter to win some awesome prizes from American Tapestry Alliance. Above are Sammy and I outside Grand Central Station in NYC last week. We love it here but can't wait to come home to BC in the summer of 2016 after being away for six years! Happy making! xo Janna Maria Vallee

Welcome to the Vancouver Yarn blog. I'd love to keep on top of all the amazing textile related stuff happening around Vancouver and beyond, but it's just not possible! Please contribute by submitting (via the form above) an event or new locally designed knitting/crochet pattern, or other newsworthy item and I'll post it here on the blog. Thank you! ~Janna
Hi, I'm Janna. I'm the owner and natural dyer at Everlea Yarn and the tapestry instructor at The School of SweetGeorgia. I am a tapestry weaver, longtime knitter and 2013 graduate of Concordia University's Fibres and Material Practices program.
I founded Vancouver Yarn in 2008 as a single space to hold as much of the textile awesomeness that I could find in and around Vancouver. Here on the VY blog I mostly share about local events, pattern releases as well as Community Highlights. Do you have an event, KAL, yarn or pattern release, launch or other thing you want us to post? Just fill out the form at the top of this page, or send your press release to me at janna (at) vancouveryarn.com Thank you!
