Save the Date! August 1-9, 2026
Colorado’s Northern Front Range Yarn Crawl began in 2010 and has grown into a much-anticipated annual tradition for fiber lovers across the region. Each year, knitters, crocheters, and yarn enthusiasts ramble their way from Laramie down through the Front Range to Louisville, exploring a vibrant collection of locally owned yarn shops along the way.
More than just a shopping event, the crawl is a celebration of creativity and community. Participants discover distinctive local yarn stores, meet passionate shop owners, connect with fellow makers, and gather inspiration for their next projects. It’s a chance to experience the character of each town, enjoy the scenic beauty of Colorado’s Front Range, and be part of a shared love of fiber arts that stretches across state lines.
