🧶 Passports for the Pa Yarn Quest 2026 are Here!

Want to know how all of this came about? 

I noticed how popular pour tours and restaurant crawls were becoming and I thought, "why can’t we do this for yarn shops in PA and fiber farms in PA?" 

Having a local yarn store (LYS) and a farm myself, I realize firsthand how much work, expense, time, and love goes into what we do. So that’s how PA Yarn Quest 2026 was born. 

What’s your part in this? 

To support us and to have a blast along the way! Road trips with friends, discovering new fun yarn shops in PA and farms, and being reminded of how beautiful our state is. 

This is our first year, so please be patient as we work out the wrinkles. 

Passports will be available soon, so visit your participating yarn shop or farm and purchase one. 

Then, for six months from May 1 through October 31, you have the opportunity to visit the shops and get your passport stamped. 

We’re inviting knitters, crocheters, and fiber lovers to explore Pennsylvania’s vibrant fiber arts community. 

Visit participating yarn shops, meet independent artists, tour fiber farms in PA, and collect stamps in your official PA Yarn Quest passport along the way. 

The more locations you visit, the more chances you’ll have to earn prizes — and discover new favorite creative destinations. 

Mark your calendar, gather your friends, and get ready to explore.
