There is a swelling storm
And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
And it takes control of the person that I thought I was
The boy I used to know
But there is a light in the dark
And I feel its warmth
In my hands, in my heart
But why can't I hold on?

It comes and goes in waves
It always does, always does
We watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood, into the flood...
Lyrics from "Waves" by Dean Lewis

Escape from the current storm and work toward a wave of change.
Join the Blue Wave!
Start with us this weekend, making the Blue Wave hat. This free community event brings together like-minded individuals who wish to make change and knit together.

We will host several of these community Knit-A-Longs in the coming months as we create our own storm, with blue waves crashing the shore. The first of many is Saturday, August 29.

"Soap and water
Take the day from my hand
Scrub the salt from my stinging skin..."
Lyrics by Suzanne Vega

Join this community Sack-A-Long to make soap sacks for our community. S.A.C.K. (Supporting A Community with Kindness) has inspired us to host this knit/crochet-a-long to supply our neighbors in need with bags containing bars of soap. The sack provides a nice scrubber in addition to wrapping the soap with our handmade care.

Our Sack-a-long is a FREE community event: the pattern is free; yarn is free; soap is free; fellowship is free (although we do ask for your fellowship in return!)
All we ask is that you bring needles or a hook.

We look forward to seeing you this Saturday and/or Sunday, August 22 & 23. More details and sign up here:

"See the line where the sky meets the sea?
It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know
If I go there's just no telling how far I'll go..."
*Lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda for Moana

The wind on our shores and the moon in the sky creates waves. The tide is changing and our blue wave hat signifies our hopes for the future. How far it goes? No one knows.

The line above the waves contains a message in morse code. No one knows what you will encode in your message.

Join us again for a community knit-a-long bringing our collective energies together to work on a hat that hopes for a brighter future. If we work together, there's just no telling how far we'll go!

The KAL begins Saturday, August 29. We will be adding some dates in September and October so we can work together completing the blue wave. Together we can weather the storm and direct our sails to a better shore.

Let us know you are coming by signing up on our web-site:

This is a free community event. We will have snacks and drinks to share.

Join our 2026 cornucopia crafting journey. Last year, we made red apples, pumpkins, gourds, and pomegranates. This year, our journey begins with green apples. What other fall fruits and vegetables will we craft on our journey? Each month we will reveal/craft an addition to our cornucopia. Hint: the rest of the journey will be different from last year.

Our KCAL begins this Sunday, August 16. Drop by the shop to pick up your kit starting Sunday.

We look forward to going on this journey with you! Whether you crochet or knit, you are welcome on our journey.

Join us to crochet this lovely, airy top. The Ginkgo Top by Yumiko Alexander is stunning and modern. The base of this top is easy and repetitive, but the edging is what creates all the excitement!

Learn with us how to read a crochet chart to create the amazing ginkgo leaf edge.
Come in to the shop to explore the yarns you could use to craft this fabulous top: starting with the DanDoh linen, but so many more options.

Our journey begins on August 15. Register here: https://purlsofjoy.com/classes

It's apple season! The Gravenstein Apple Fair is this weekend. Do visions of apples dance in your head?

Join our Cornucopia knit/crochet-a-long this fall. I know! It's not yet Fall, but we need to get a head-start on our Thanksgiving crafting!

Whether you knit or crochet, we are crafting apples that can be added to your Thanksgiving table-scape. This will be the first item for our Fall Cornucopia craft-a-long.

This year, just like last year, we are crafting one item each month that can be a part of your Thanksgiving table. If you participate each month, either in the KCAL or by buying the kit, you will get a bonus in November.

Limited numbers of last year's cornucopia kits will be available for purchase.

Begin your journey with us on August 16!

The first week of August. You know what that brings! UFO night! Yes, our gift to you the first Friday of each month.

But at what cost? The cost is Thursday's Sit & Stitch. Yes, Sit & Stitch is cancelled for this week. But do not fret, it returns August 13th!

Please, gather your unfinished objects, and join us Friday evening, 4:30-8:00. We delight in helping you through your struggles to reach the completion of a crafted piece. We hope this monthly pot luck inspires you to pick up a long lost project and work it to completion.

Wine Country Yarn Hoppers: Did you pick up a Doodle deck during your hop? If so, did you get your Wine Country Yarn Hop mini-charts from Purls of Joy? And, do you know what you will doodle? You should join our Doodle Workshop.

We will guide you through the design process, help you combine various doodles to create your unique design. Doodles are simply small charted designs that must be combined together and embedded in a pattern. We will help you create your unique design and choose the yarns that will bring your creation to life.

Our doodle workshop includes a choice of base yarns and several contrasting mini-skeins to bring your design to fruition. My WCYH doodle cowl is a little wild, but is constructed to show you a variety of techniques.

Please join me on Saturday, August 8, 11:00am-4:00pm.

I know, you are just getting used to the idea that we are now in August! How can you possibly be expected to read the August newsletter and react to our fabulous offerings so quickly? Are we not mere mortals? No, we are crafters extraordinaire! We are super-human.

But alas, sometimes we are mere mortals. Maybe we have too much email. Maybe we have lives outside of email that distract us. Whatever the reason, Purls of Joy is with you.

You may not have seen our flexible "Choose your own journey" class for knitting a summer top which began on August 2. That's okay! You can sign-up and start now! We are with you even if your embarkation is delayed!

It is not too late to join us in making a summer top. We will be happy to help you choose materials and get on your way.
