This month marks the year anniversary of my very first visit to the Caron yarn plant in Washington, NC. I'm feeling a bit nostalgiac, so I dug into the archives of never-before-seen footage, and put together a behind-the-(yarn)-scenes video of what happens to get your favorite stitching supplies, primped and ready to go out to your favorite craft store. Enjoy!
