2022 LYS TOUR REVIEW
It was exhilarating to FINALLY have a "real" Tour after two long years of navigating a global pandemic. Our participating shops were pumped to receive customers in person again, and what a thrill to be able to show off our patterns and featured yarns to customers in real life!
This was the "Sweet 16" Tour - and we marked the occasion with a fun, hand drawn illustration by a local artist. This image graced our totes and zipper pouches, the passport and signage. We went back to the five day Tour format, and had 20 participating shops. We continued our efforts to minimize waste by printing fewer passports, and encouraged shops to offer digital download codes for their free patterns.
Whether you visited all 20 shops or just a fe, we are grateful for your excitement, appreciation, and creativity. From all of us, THANK YOU for making the LYS Tour one of the largest and longest running in the nation.
