In this episode of Exploration Crochet, ReRe takes listeners on a

fiber-filled road trip through the world of Yarn Crawls —

community-driven events where crafters visit multiple local yarn shops armed

with hooks, passports, and plenty of enthusiasm. From the origins of the crawl

tradition to the first official LYS tours in the late 2000s, we explore how

these creative adventures connect makers and strengthen the fiber community.

Along the way, ReRe highlights global yarn crawls from the U.S. to South

America, where shop-hopping and skein-squishing turn travel into craft

celebration. You’ll learn what makes a successful crawl — from prizes and

passports to trunk shows, demos, and charity tie-ins — and get practical tips

for first-time crawlers. At its heart, this episode reminds us that every yarn

crawl is about connection, creativity, and the shared joy of discovering fiber

together.
