Every day leading up to the Tour, we're going to feature a different 2024 Yarn Tour Destination on the blog! Read about each shop in their own words, take a virtual tour, and get excited for your fiber adventure! Our next stop is The Bees Knits Yarn Shop in Knoxville!
Melissa opened the shop because she was passionate about fiber arts. Her goal is to encourage all makers and all who aspire to make things. Our focus is COMMUNITY! We offer weekly community events on Friday and Sundays, and we always want to ensure that you leave the shop feeling excited and encouraged about what you are working on!
Besides yarn, we offer a ton of local products including: dyed yarn, handmade project bags, pottery, candles, and gifts! We are happy to offer pattern support, classes, community events, and more.
This is our first year participating in the yarn tour and we are excited to be a part of it!
We have multiple trunk shows booked with our Knoxville-local vendors during the Tour and can't wait to show you what these Knoxville makers have to offer.
