Sandra, Carla & Michelle ABYC . . as of October 1, 2020! A little history. . . . of ABYC... Twenty years ago two wise Long Beach women, Liz Hancock and Fran Conley, recognized the need for a yarn shop and knew exactly where it should be located. They planted the seed in Cindy’s head, and the thought of yarn, knitting and hanging out by the bay was too hard to resist. And then, with great luck, Judy joined us as we grew. For two decades we have enjoyed watching those who love to knit, crochet and weave meld into a very special community of fiber lovers. We count these years, not in days or months, but in the smiles and memories of so many dear, loyal customers who became friends, not just with us, but with each other. One of our joys is hearing stories of friendships made over a common passion for yarn! We were also fortunate for the many talented teachers, staff and volunteers who joined us through the years to provide classes, fun events, plus special visits from well-known designers and hand dyers. With retirement looming, we knew our precious community needed the right hands to ensure continued progress as the fiber market adapts to changing times. We feel extremely lucky and very confident that three talented ladies, Sandra, Carla and Michelle, will now be shepherding your ABYC. They are looking forward to your continued support. How do we express our gratitude for your loyalty and trust while sharing your passion for fiber, color and design with us. ABYC is a treasured community---all because of YOU! It’s been our joy knowing you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Cindy and Judy ABYC IN-STORE HOURS: Mon., Wed., Fri., Sat., 10 am - 2 pm Masks required for all so you can shop while staying safe! #alamitosbayyarncompany #Yarnstore #yarnshop #supportyourfriends #savesmallbusiness #womanownedbusiness #shoplocal #knittersofinstagram #weaversofinstagram #crochetersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #yarnaddiction #Knitstagram #Yarnaddict #Handmade #Knitlife #DIY #alwaysknitting #Knittersoftheworld #Localyarnshop #Lys
*Last days of Retirement Sale - this Friday & Saturday!* ANOTHER NEW DANDOH MINI-TRUNK SHOW AT ABYC UNTIL OCTOBER 10... Come see our newest DanDoh mini-trunk show at ABYC only until October 10.

Needles US6, 7 & 8 1600-1960 yds Sedona Shadows This easy-fit pullover is perfect for any age and flattering on all body types! The front and back pieces are knit from side to side. The body stitch pattern includes an eyelet mesh along one edge for the neckline, a stockinette stitch pattern in the center, and wavy lace along the other edge for the hem. The shoulders are seamed, and then the sleeves are picked up and worked outwards from the body. Linen Needle US 10 640-744 yds Sankaku A cowl or poncho! If you spread the slit to180 degrees you can then wear it in many different ways. Simple and fun to knit. It is worked from the bottom up. The mosaic pattern is easier to work than it looks.
