LYS special programing for Patty Lyons' Knitting Bag
of Tricks: The Official Workbook
Turn Patty’s Books into Classes & Programming for Your Store
My bestselling book, Patty Lyons’ Knitting Bag of Tricks, was all about sharing my favorite tricks to empower knitters. Since its publication, I’ve consistently heard one thing from knitters: “I wish you could turn the whole book into a class.”
That request became the seed that grew into the workbook—the perfect companion to the original book—as well as my new book, Patty Lyons’ Knitting ER, a one-of-a-kind reference packed with step-by-step repair tutorials.
Having run two local yarn stores, I know how time-consuming it is to create programming, which is why I’m so excited about what the combination of Patty Lyons’s Knitting Bag of Tricks, along with The Official Workbook and Patty Lyons’ Knitting ER, can mean for local yarn stores. Use these books to build customer skills, build community, and build SALES!
Here are three ideas to turn the workbook into sales & programming for your LYS:
| 1. | Build Sales: Bundle the Workbook with gift products (available through pattylyons.com) |
| 2. | Build Skills: A Ready-Made Class – 5 to 8 week Technique-Along |
| 3. | Build Community: Introduce Special Events |

Our customers have absolutely loved Patty Lyons’ Knitting Bag of Tricks! It has so many great ideas and clever hacks. It’s one of our go-to recommendations whenever someone comes in looking to up their skills, or find a perfect gift for a knitter they love. Also, our shop has a social knitting group that meets multiple times a month. You know how that table can be full of laughter and creativity and, yes, wisdom? There’s nothing quite like that community. But this book is kind of like having Patty at our table whenever someone shares something from it!
