My son-in-law James saw a story about a yarn store on wheels. Here’s the clip on Columbus television. YARNBYRDS,LLC THE YARN TRUCK
James knows I like to knit and enjoy good yarn so this morning he sent me a link from the local paper aticle about Yarnbyrds Columbus Dispatch.
A converted RV is a yarn store? I’m in!
The Food Truck craze has inspired a gourmet Yarn Truck. What a wonderful idea.
Found the phone number and called Robin and this evening I was able to go and visit “Birdie” ( the mobile yarn store’s nickname) and make some wonderful gourmet yarn purchases, too.
Here’s Yarnbirds website for details on the delicious yarn and a calendar of where Birdie will be parked, so you can check it out, too! A terrific selection to choose from- I know I’ll be back.
What a cool idea. Here is the owner/ proprietor Robin Richey.

Robin’s husband Tom did all the LED lighting in the truck and so all the yarn shows in true color which is really important in a yarn store! He’s an electrical engineer.
Robin creates the project bags. There’s jewelry and Drunk Yarn kits for dying.
What a fun place! Good idea! Great for you!
It was so fun!
What a brilliant idea, there aren’t very many yarn shops around here and if you live in the country it would be difficult to get what you want.
Instead of waiting in s brick snd mortar shop for people to come, she can travel to them. So smart! She has lovely yarn.
Well – I can so see Ruth E Hendricks doing that. A new profession, perhaps?
I’ll be a customer.
Such a creative idea! A yarn truck! Who knew such a place existed? The yarn in this truck looks gorgeous.
What a great idea…
There are 8 yarn trucks in the US and Canada I’d never seen one before
I love this concept! When I was growing up in a rural area, the library bookmobile came around and it was an exciting day. I can just see the yarnmobile generating the same enthusiasm.
Not sure why you are anonymous today J but thanks for the comment.
So clever!
It is such a cool idea
