As you may know, I will not be continuing with 2 Guys Yarn Company after Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival this September, however the website will be up until its renewal in November.
I had a blast the past 12 years, met some wonderful people. But since my heart is no longer in it, it is best to shutter the business. I will be selling all the equipment, it'll take me a bit to get it all accounted for, so bookmark this!
I can meet at my home in Marshalltown IA and areas nearby (schedule pending), some things can be shipped. But if you will be at Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival this September, I can bring it with me there for you to collect then, and save yourself the shipping.
So if you know someone, share.

Much has happened the past 6 months. I’m having certain struggles and finding it hard to enjoy crafting. So I making a difficult decision, I will be leaving 2 Guys Yarn Company with a planned final showing at Wisconsin Sheep & Wool. I will greatly miss the events, community, and friendships the business provided.
For customers, most items are still on the website and there will be a wide variety at the show laid out. For vendors, I’ll post an inventory to an Indie group on FB of the hardware I have. Certain items (unbranded notions) will be available wholesale.

A mile stroll at midnight takes me by the courthouse. It's quiet.
My apologies for the lack of yarny content. Sorry to say, it hadn't crossed my mind.
I am packed for and I'll head to Iowa City in the afternoon.
Stop by the Johnson County Fairgrounds Saturday and see what everyone has to offer.

It was a pleasure venturing out of the house for the first time in a month. Thank you for all the kind words, support, and patience. It wasn’t easy to pick myself back up, but y’all helped. Thank you. Happy crafting!

Extreme loneliness is hard to defeat. I'm attempting to keep myself occupied in the evenings. At least I've found this lamp in the storage shed. Most nights I just cry. Some nights I write. For now I've lost motivation and desire.

Today was a day I wasn't look forward to. There's ups and downs over the years but it's still so hard to have to say goodbye.

Miss you
Love you
You're gone too soon
