with heavy hearts, we are sad to announce the passing of Kay Kilbury.
kay owned The Yarn Mart for over 40 years and was a fixture at the table for much longer. countless people learned to knit and needlepoint under her watchful eye. she was passionate about needle crafts and willingly shared her knowledge and wisdom with all who wanted to learn. she remembered most everyone's name. and if she didn't remember your name, she knew what you had knitted or needlepointed.
she was an incredible cook. whether her white pimento cheese, chicken salad or Bishop's chicken, we enjoyed her food and she enjoyed serving it. she loved trying new recipes and sharing her epicureal curiosity with others.
we will miss her very much and feel so fortune to have known her.
we will honor her at the shop and will let you know the details soon.
