A Spinner's Barn is the gift shop located on Aragon Alpacas' farm. They're open at the holidays and…read morefor special events, as well as by appointment. You can probably go in any time you're visiting Aragon Farm (make an appointment to be sure). A Spinner's Barn has a beautiful selection of silky smooth alpaca yarn, gorgeous alpaca fur blankets, clothing and scarves woven locally, alpaca fleece, socks, stuffed animals, bags, hats, alpaca-themed gifts like mugs, and a variety of original landscape paintings by the Plein Air Painters of Lane County, whom you'll often find painting out at the farm. A Spinner's Barn also organizes spinning classes if you get in touch with them. We stopped by this week, petted the adorable and very sweet alpacas, and then quickly sought some warmth in the gift shop where we got some of the softest yarn I've ever felt as a christmas gift for a family member. Our visit was well worth the drive, but make sure you check that they're open, or just call ahead and they'll make sure they're there to open the place for you!

Afghans are woven locally from our yarn. The hoodies and designer sweaters are made in Peru, where alpacas originated. Landscape paintings adorn the walls, for sale by local artists. A spinning wheel is available for impromptu demonstrations, and the alpacas are usually gathered just outside for you to visit. Meet the animal who has contributed fleece during annual shearing.

I moved to Eugene and was thinking wouldn't it be great if Eugene had such a place, and lo and behold, MECCA! It's like Seattle ReCreative but 10+ times larger! Paint, canvas, paper, folios, yarn, fabric remnants, yogurt tubs, wine bottles, plant pots, scrapbook papers, so much fun stuff to get you thinking creativity on a budget. My only suggestion is they might find a way to fill in the huge puddle right in front of their door, and that they somehow get more parking spaces!

When I moved back to Eugene last year after 35 Years of…read moreliving in Denver, my go to place was a place that had knitting needles and yarns.

The rudeness was unnecessary

Still a little overpriced. But the wreath is beautiful. Beautiful store and very easy to find stuff. Just remember they're closed on Sundays.
