I said to myself...

I should do something today besides knit.
And then I laughed and laughed.

Meet Ash & Bumble…This Weekend At MAKS

As a reminder, this weekend is the Ash & Bumble Trunk Show in-store at MAKS. I asked Ashley to introduce herself and she sent along this note for you. Stop by the shop from 11-4 this Saturday to meet Ash in person and check out her amazing trunk show!!

Hello, my name is Ashley, but my friends & family call me Ash!

I decided to start a small-batch, hand-dyed yarn business in February 2020 and I officially opened Ash & Bumble in April 2020. I definitely had my doubts about starting a business during a pandemic, but I truly believed that I could actually do this and just have fun with it!

I taught myself how to knit in 2016Β  because I desperately needed a hobby. I was hooked and decided to learn how to dye the yarn as a secondary hobby with a good friend in 2019. She has now become my assistant for events so you will see another Ashley alongside me πŸ™‚

The main inspiration for my colorways and general aesthetic is nature. You will find that I absolutely love flowers, animals, and gemstones/minerals. That is why I decided to name my business Ash & Bumble. I adore bumble bees πŸ™‚

I currently have two monthly yarn clubs called The Brilliance of Birds and Botanical Garden. I will soon be releasing an Endangered Species Collection on July 21st.

Ash & Bumble currently has 10 yarn bases (from lace weight to worsted weight) and over 30 colorways. πŸ™‚

I look forward to meeting and chatting with everyone!

Knitty Things To Do!

Happy Wednesday Knit Friends:

Upcoming Events you should mark your calendar for:

This weekend, we will have a one-day Trunk Show with Ash & Bumble a small batch hand-dyed yarn company based right here in Indianapolis. They work with ethically sourced fiber from mills around the world and add their own with unique dyeing methods. The show will be in-store only, this Saturday, July 17th, 2021 from 11:00 to 4:00 p.m.

Next month, we will be at the Pittsburgh Creative Arts Festival at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Green Tree, PA. on August 12-14th, 2021. It’s been forever since we did a booth show and what better way than to work with Laura Regan as she takes over the show and expands it in the future. Come see us in booths 38-39!
