Have you heard about Little Boxes, Portland's shop-local movement? It's a deeply cool program that targets Black Friday and Shop Local Saturday. This year, five of our local yarn stores – Twisted, Fiber Rhythm Craft & Design, Knit Purl, Yarnia and Northwest Wools – are participating. Check out Anna Marum's story on the program:
Little Boxes returns to Portland for its fifth year

This year, the annual shop-local program hopes to top last year's sales.
And that's not all that's on tap for Black Friday weekend. Reports from stores are still coming in, but below is what I've rounded up so far. I'll keep tabs on Black Friday yarn store sales and compile them all into a master post as Black Friday draws nearer.
Twisted: The store's Pajama Jammy Jam from 9 a.m.-7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 27. "Escape Black Friday craziness and join us for a cozy day at Twisted!" the store writes. "We'll be open an hour early, and have some great deals for you with 10 percent off storewide (some exclusions apply) and up to 40 percent off select items. PLUS receive a coupon for $20 off a qualifying purchase in January IF you wear your jammies!" Twisted is at 2310 N.E. Broadway in Portland.
Fiber Rhythm Craft & Design: On Black Friday (Nov. 27) only, get 50 percent off all reflective products, including Retroglo reflective yarn. "Other reflective products include Reflective Knit Bicycle Helmet Ear Covers and Reflective Dog Leashes," the store writes. "Mix and Match allowed." On Small Business Saturday (Nov. 28), the store's got a special deal on Plymouth yarn products. "Make an in-store purchase of $50 of Plymouth Yarn products on Saturday November 28th and receive a Plymouth Yarn coupon for $20 off their next $50 purchase of Plymouth Yarn products," the store writes. "Coupon valid from December 1st thru December 31st, 2015." Fiber Rhythm Craft & Design is at 3701 S.E. Milwaukie Ave. in Portland.
For Yarn's Sake: On Black Friday (Nov. 27): " Join us from Noon to 5 as we knit ornaments for our tree," the store writes. "A virtual fire, hot mulled cider, and holiday treats for all. Special savings throughout the store!" And there's a tree-trimming event, too! "From now though Christmas Eve, bring us a hand-knit or crocheted ornament for our shop tree, and we'll give you an early Christmas gift. Ho! Ho! Ho!" For Yarn's Sake is at 11767 S.W.
