Our Community Promise

Warm stitches & kind vibes only.

At The Yarny Way, we believe fiber arts can connect people across ages, backgrounds, and skill levels. Whether you’re shopping yarn, taking a class, joining a knit-along, or simply stopping by, we want you to feel welcome here.

We are committed to creating a space that is:

• Learning-centered — come curious, ask questions, grow your skills
• Kind — speak to and about others with respect
• Inclusive — everyone deserves a seat at the table
• Encouraging — mistakes are part of making
• Mindful — help us keep the shop calm, welcoming, and considerate of shared space

We ask our community to:

• Respect fellow makers, instructors, and staff
• Be welcoming to beginners and supportive of different skill levels
• Be thoughtful about volume and conversation topics in shared spaces
• Help create a positive atmosphere for both learners and shoppers
• Keep conversations considerate, inclusive, and community-minded

What doesn’t belong here:

Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, bullying, harassment, intimidation, or exclusionary behavior have no place at The Yarny Way.

Why this matters

We’re building more than a yarn shop. We’re building a creative community—one rooted in curiosity, kindness, and shared joy in making.

Welcome—we’re glad you’re here.

— Marni & The Yarny Way
