The crawl takes place online March 5-8, 2026

Step 1: Print out an official 2026 Passport below.

Step 2: Visit each of the 9 participating shops websites and look for a 2026 themed word (hint: will likely be on the home page or on a dedicated yarn crawl page. They will not be posted until the crawl officially starts at 10am PST on March 5th, 2026.)

Step 3: Make purchases directly from the shop websites if you like, including pattern kits, trunk shows and more! (not required for prize entry)

Step 4: Return to this website and enter all 9 codes into the virtual passport entry form for your chance to win our virtual prize basket.

Step 5: Get excited to receive your haul in the mail and perhaps win a fabulous prize!

Get your free patterns and give to charity

With each purchase made at a shop, you will receive a Ravelry download code to receive that shops pattern(s) for free! How can it get better? Purchase a kit for that pattern and 10% of its sale will be donated to charity.
