Loving how people are getting innovative in these crazy times! The wonderful owners of Berroco from get-go embraced change and jumped right in, finding new ways to help their shops survive and thrive during the shut downs. We so appreciate this. Warren and his gang are still doing it!
Berroco has made great little video trunk shows highlighting the new patterns and yarns. Fun to see the still photos and videos of models moving around in the patterns! This 360 angle helps show off patterns nicely. Helps give a sense of how the sweaters move and drape on the body. Below is the video for Mochi, a new fall chunky yarn. Purchase in our online shop here.

Back in March Berroco also quickly revamped their operations to support their shop owners in a way that was unprecedented. Within a few weeks they launched the Project of the Week program. This let customers order up wonderful projects from us and Berroco would ship directly to our customers. We could also order up even just 1 ball of yarn if that's all a customer needed to keep sane during the stay at home months. The owners and staff immediately set about coming up with ways to support their LYS's and are we ever so grateful! You can read about it here and here See all the Project of the Weeks here on our website. Even now months later Berroco still doing the program so if you see one you want just let us know. You can find them listed in the Kits section of our website. You may still see some kits in your Berroco KnitBits newsletter.We're happy to order those up even if not shown on our website. Just give us a call or email.
