| Welcome to The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company!
We are pleased to bring quality yarns, needles, and hand-knitting and crocheting supplies to the fiber enthusiasts of Acadiana! It is our goal, not only to keep up with current trends and styles in handwork to provide our customers the best in today’s fashions and techniques, but also to remain firmly grounded in the rich heritage of our beautiful and dear Acadiana. The first settlers in our area without a doubt produced handsome fiber objects for practical use, and The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company continues that tradition with its large selection of practical yarns and patterns for practical knitters who enjoy creating hand-made garments for themselves and others. Bringing this rich hand-working heritage into the 21st century, The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company also offers a wide range of yarns in a host of fibers and fiber blends required by today’s fashion-conscious knitters and crocheters. In addition, we carry an excellent selection of tools and gadgets to make your fiber work easier.

| CLASSES & WORKSHOPS |
Beginners’ Classes:
Haven’t learned to knit or crochet? You learned years ago but are a bit rusty on the basics? Schedule a time for a quick refresher! From time to time, Vermilion Bay will schedule a group beginners’ class, but the easiest way to learn is one-on-one – you can’t beat having your own attentive, helpful teacher sitting beside you to guide you step by step. Beginner’s sessions are scheduled according to your convenience during shop hours. Give us a call or stop by to set up a lesson. The basic lesson fee is $20 for a two-hour, one-on-one session. |

Technique Workshops:
The Vermilion Bay Yarn Company offers regularly scheduled classes on specific techniques to improve and expand your fiber working knowledge. Technique workshops are designed for knitters who have already mastered the basics. Workshops are priced according to the number of sessions. |

|
Project Classes
Work a project with a group of knitters at the same time with constant help and guidance by an instructor. This is the “safety in numbers” approach for complicated patterns or patterns that might involve new or unusual specialty techniques. A project class will help you reach a new level in your fiber work while minimizing frustration and maximizing success. It’s a great confidence builder for fiber fans to explore more of the vast fiber art universe! There’s so much more out there to experience apart from the same old mile-long rectangle!
