Extended Hours and Sit & Knit!

Starting November 4th, Bayou Yarn Shoppe will have extended hours. We will be open until 7pm on Thursdays only. 

 In the last year and a half we have had to limit the number of people in the shop and therefore could not allow anyone to sit and knit. With the improvement in COVID numbers and the relaxation of restrictions we are now able to invite you to join us during the day to knit!
