We’ll host InTheBagPDX for a trunk show all four days of the Crawl. Owner Tracy creates practical but fun and unique bags and storage accessories for all your project needs, from sweaters to socks. Her bags, bins and rope baskets are as notable for their colors and patterns as they are for their excellent craftsmanship.

Sharon Spence of Garage Dyeworks has been dying yarn in Hillsboro since 2008, previously under the name “Stitch Jones.” She enjoys using bright, vibrant color in her dye work, and likes fun names for her colorways, like “Fold in the Cheese,” “She Walked in Through the Out Door,” and “Bring Your Jukebox Money.” Sharon is the dyer who brought us our signature shop color, “Belle of the Ball.”

Stephania Fregosi of Three Fates Yarns is back for an in-person trunk show this year! The daughter of two retired artists, Steph’s life-long obsession with color is apparent in her gorgeous colorways and gradient sets. A dyer of yarn and roving, Steph favors ecofriendly fibers, including organic certified merino wool and carbon beneficial rambouillet.

Wendy Hanson of Shaggy Bear Farms runs a “farm to needle” business in Scio, Oregon, where she raises her animals and hand-dyes her yarn. She cares for more than 400 sheep, goats, rabbits and llamas, many of whom are rescue animals. Wendy always fills our classroom with an amazing variety of yarns and spinning fiber–be sure to stop by and listen to Wendy’s tales of life on the farm!
