Public Knitoxication with Cesium Yarn

  • The Arc at Market Street 555 South Market Street Frederick, MD, 21701 United States (map)

Come sip and stitch with us at Fabbioli Cellars! We’ll be celebrating knitting in public at the Cesium Yarn truck, with Cat and Penny. This is a free event is organized by The Fiberists!

We will have more Science is Real collection bags, as well as wine bags and an array of summer prints as we head into the sunshine season. This is also a chance for you to get to know Cesium if you haven’t tried their amazing yarns yet. Trust us, you’ll never be the same!

When: 10am - 5pm on Saturday, June 14th aka Worldwide Knit in Public Day.

Where: Fabbiloi Cellars, 15669 Limestone School Road, Leesburg, Virginia. The event is in the "speakeasy," left of the tasting room and below the farmhouse. There is parking available onsite and we recommend carpooling with your favorite designated driver (be they a friend or ride service). Please drink (and knit) responsibly. Must be 21 or older to sit at the tasting counter.

Why: Because good wine, food, and fiber are the perfect way to celebrate crafting in public. Please remember, only you can prevent tipsy stitches and next day tinking.


Cesium Yarn

Hand-dyed yarn made with love and science

Where to even begin with the fiber magic that Cat and Penny create? And what is magic really, other than science that we don’t understand yet? Of course we’re paraphrasing Arthur C Clarke there, but truly, their colors are stunning and their ethics and sustainability efforts are delightful in today’s climate. Learn more about their work and their adorable fur babies by visiting their website or following them on social media. We can personally vouch for their sock base, the colors really do glow, dk, and their fiber.

In the meantime, we are ecstatic to supply them with our first science collection with them, aboard their yarn truck, Ellie, in the outside area of Public Knitoxication. Can’t make it? No worries, we hope to continue supplying them with atomic, quality bags in the future. Be sure to check out their events page to see when they’re coming to a town near you, or put your order in online.
