Northwest Wools

Portland's Oldest Yarn Shop

Rose City Yarn Crawl

Thank you to everyone who participated in this year's Yarn Crawl! We had a great weekend, and we loved seeing everyone come out to celebrate fiber. We still have plenty of kits for our shop patterns available for purchase, both in-store and online.

An annual Portland experience, the Rose City Yarn Crawl is an event for fiber enthusiasts — knitters, crocheters, spinners, weavers, and felters — to explore the many shops in and around Portland, Oregon! 2023 marked our 14th year of celebrating Portland as a yarn and fiber destination.

Yarn Crawl Shop Patterns

We've designed exclusive knit and crochet patterns as part of the Rose City Yarn Crawl, and we are so excited to share them with everyone!

Magical Me Scarf

The Magical Me Scaft celebrates the magic we perform whenever we pick up our knitting wands and yarn. As Knitting Wizards, we have many spells we can perform, and many variations within them. Will we throw in a cable? Spice things up with some lace?

The Magical Me Scarf casts its spell with modular knitting, combining easy garter stitch with simple lace in a pattern that will hold your interest throughout. And this scarf has an additional trick up its sleeve — it can also be a cowl! Instructions include the additional magic motions needed to transform your Magical Me Scarf into a Magical Me Cowl.

Magic Mock Cable Bag

Every Crochet Wizard needs a place to keep their magic supplies, and this bag, infused with magic from beginning to end, is just the ticket!

The magic begins with the yarn: Berroco Remix is made with 100% recycled cloth, collected from the ready-made clothing industry, transformed back into fiber, and re-spun into yarn. Next, cable shapes are summoned through slight of hook, adding both structure and decoration to this handy bag.

What will you keep in yours?
