My general absence on the web these days is mostly due to my new found love for a new routine : 1) turn on computer 2) check email 3) turn off computer. Save for the occasional skim of my Google Reader and some internet TV here and there I'm loving spending less time on the web. With that said, there are some lovely installations that have stood out on my reader that I want to share.  This is my favourite! A massive steel sculpture of a desktop icon in New Zealand. Stunning. Via dudecraft  An interactive cloud installation made of thousands of light bulbs and pull strings. Via Colossal  AND this awesome musical swing set in Montreal! I ride by this installation all the time, it's rarely unoccupied. Via Colossal

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!
