Welcome, come right in!

Blueball Mountain Spindle & Needleworks, the Yarn and Fiber Shop in Historic Downtown Elizabethtown KY, has become the focus of the activities of All One Farms. The Farm, itself is still where the Sheep are raised, Gardens are kept and large dyeing and processing takes place.

Local Yarn Store Now Open in Historic Elizabethtown, Kentucky



The Elizabethtown location of Blueball Mountain Spindle and Needleworks has officially opened at 29 Public Square . The location in the historic district of one of Kentucky's oldest town is convenient and there is always something happening. I was lucky to find this little pocket of a shop right in the center of the ...center of the town square. There is an excellent public and free parking in the back leading to the back door and one hour parking in the front.

But the best news is the expanded inventory that I am now able to carry at this location. In addition to the spinning tools and supplies from Ashford and the Shetland Wool rovings, fleeces and custom blended LunaLocaBatts and my own Loqueria Art Yarns, I now carry an array of yarns from some of the best yarn producers around. Selections from regional Alpaca growers, USA based Mountain Colors (to dye for!), 

 

New England based Classic Elite Yarns including Fresco, Sprout, Firefly and Portland Tweed

 

are complemented by Fair Trade yarns and products from Frog Tree (South America) and Frabjous (Nepal).

And of course, how could I resist carrying the beautiful animal friendly bags and accessories created by Namaste. 

Also in stock is the loveliest selection of colors from Cascade in 220 SuperWash. Coming soon will be regular Cascade 220, so perfect for felting.

And let me not forget to mention the selection gorgeous Regia Sock yarns.



There re many options for gifts and accessories including Shawl Pins from JUL 

 

and several gorgeous Sweater and Shawl kits from Frog Tree and Mountain Colors. More kits and gift items will be coming soon too.

 

 

In this cabinet I also have  a few of the lovely handpainted yarns from LunaBud Knits in Sock, fingering, bulky and lace weights. These are in limited supply right now, so get them while you can. I hope to be getting more from Steph in the near future.

Also scheduled to arrive is MistiAlpaca HandPaints in both lace and bulky weights. I could not resist these. This is both visual and tactile lushness personoified. Come experience them yourself, soon.  

Quality Knitting Needles include Hiya Hiya's full line of bamboo, steel circulars, fixed and interchangeable sets and Double Points.  Brittany straights in all sizes as well as economical Chiagoo, and Boye Balene and others.  Crochet Hooks, stitch markers, needle guages and stitch counters are also available.

The Shop is located in the Old Downtown Historic District which is crossed by Route 31 and Old Main Street.

Hours are:  11-6 on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 

                     10-5 on Saturday; I am closed on Sunday and Monday
