What is the NJWW?
During this yearly event, participating yarn stores offer special events, discounts, designer appearances, book signings, and trunk shows.
How to Wool Walk?
- The 2023 NJWW begins on Wednesday, April 26th and ends on Sunday, April 30th. Five days of browsing and shopping.
- Wool Walkers purchase a passport for $6 to take part in the NJWW and to be eligible for store discounts.
- Passports are purchased in-person at your LYS.
- $1.00 from each passport benefits the Community Food Bank of NJ.
- Get your Passport stamped by each store you visit during the walk. (No purchase is necessary to have your passport stamped.)
- See the list of stores under the 2023 Stores tab and check here for individual extended store hours.
- To create a travel plan, click on the Map tab and pick the stores you would like to visit. Click on their individual websites for store hours and special information.
- At the last store you visit, turn in your stamped passport. Your passport will be used as your ticket to our prize drawings. The more stores you visit, the more stamps you get, the greater the prize you are eligible to win.
- If you prefer to mail your passport after the NJWW, please mail by May 1st to: Irina Lester, The Local Yarn Store, 57 Academy Street, South Orange, NJ 07079
