About Us

Bev’s Yarn Barn was created with one simple idea in mind: to bring warmth, creativity, and community back to the local yarn scene.

Founded by Ashley Burroughs, a crafter and fiber enthusiast, Bev’s Yarn Barn is a response to a growing need in the Quad Cities—a place where makers of all kinds can gather, learn, shop, and connect. When larger craft stores started closing and options became limited, Ashley saw an opportunity to build something meaningful and local.

Named in loving memory of her grandmother Bev, a woman known for her endless creativity and generous spirit, the shop is more than just a store—it’s a tribute to the kind of space Bev would have loved. One where everyone is welcome, whether you're picking up your first crochet hook or you’ve been knitting for decades.

At Bev’s Yarn Barn, you’ll find:

Affordable yarns and fiber supplies curated for quality and value
A cozy, creative space to sit, stitch, and connect
A rotating selection of handmade goods from local artists
Workshops and classes to help crafters grow their skills and confidence

We believe crafting is better when shared. That’s why Bev’s Yarn Barn is designed to be more than a place to shop—it’s a place to belong.

Whether you’re here to learn, stock up on your favorite yarn, or just enjoy some time with fellow fiber lovers, we can’t wait to welcome you.
