Picture

This year you can visit shops personally or shop virtually! Please refer to our listings below as well as your purchased passport for complete details on which shops are open for in-person shopping and which shops are virtual only.

Shop a few shops or shop them all! Eleven great shops are participating this year! There's something fun for every fiber fan. ​Plus, the Yarn Discovery Tour gives you three weeks to enjoy all that Northeast Ohio yarn shops have to offer. ​Spread the word to your fiber friends across the country. Everyone can participate in the YDT this year no matter where they live!
​
Every year there's always a little confusion about what days & hours shops are open during the YDT. Your passport clearly shares that information for each shop.

Here's how it worksthis year: With the exception of the shops who are participating virtual only, every shop that is open for in-store shopping is open during their regular hours and adds on these YDT hours as well: Thursdays and Fridays 11 AM - 6PM, Saturdays 11 AM - 5 PM and Sundays 11 AM - 5 PM.
