Yarn Group
This committee is an industry-encompassing group dedicated to promoting partnership among designers, manufacturers, publishers, retailers, sales reps, and wholesalers. Members are committed to working professionally in the yarn industry to create awareness and appreciation of the craft, to promote continued growth of the industry, and to develop a new generation of yarn consumers.
The Yarn Group supports and works with other TNNA committees to ensure the needs and interests of Yarn Group members are met. Some examples of Yarn Group involvement include sponsorship of the Fashion Show, Silent Auction, mini grants for knit outs and the Needle Arts Mentoring ProgramSM.
