Welcome to The Tangled Ball



 



MARSHA, MARSHA, MARSHA!! 


Did you know that knitwear designer Jody Long has created a shawl named after our very own Marsha? The design features a beautiful lace pattern created with yarn-overs.

To celebrate, we are hosting a Knit-Along (KAL), and we would love for you to join us!


 

Calling all flower children, pollinator protectors, and fiber-loving free spirits!
The Tangled Ball is thrilled to announce this year's summer knit and crochet contest:

OPERATION POLLINATION



We're inviting you to either knit or crochet your grooviest flower, bee, butterfly, hummingbird, moth, bat, or other pollinator-inspired masterpiece.  Let your creativity bloom and help spread a little Flower Power throughout the shop!

To our friends who live remotely:  Yes, you may absolutely participate by sending your entry to the shop.  We'll turn a blind eye to any invasive species, as long as it's coming to spread love.  (In case you're unaware, we did have a remote winner last year.  ...Just sayin'!) 
 

Contest Timeline

• Entries accepted in-store beginning July 8
• Public voting opens July 10
• Voting continues through August 10
• Winners announced August 12

Voting Rules

One vote per customer, per day. Stop by often and support your favorite creations!

Contest Categories:

Best Pollinator Story 
Tell the tale of your favorite flower-loving creature. Is it a bee on a mission? A butterfly on an adventure? A hummingbird with a secret?

Best Pollen Donor and/or Receiver Story
Show us the flower side of the partnership! Create a bloom with a backstory, personality, or pollination tale worthy of the Summer of Love.

Overall Favorite Flower or Pollinator
The crowd favorite! The entry that captures hearts, inspires smiles, and earns the most admiration from our community.


Whether your creation is sweet, silly, realistic, whimsical, or wonderfully weird, we want to see it!

So grab your hooks, needles, yarn, and imagination. It's time to spread peace, love, and pollination.

Make yarn, not war.
Let your creativity bloom.
Join Operation Pollination!

Worldwide Knit in Public Day!

Saturday June 13, 2026


It's coming:
The one and ONLY day of the year that we don't want you hanging out all day at The Tangled Ball.
(Note we didn't say "some of the day"!)

Go show off your prowess!
I promise that even if you're a newbie, people will be enthralled by your magic...


It sounds crazy, but regulars to the Edgewater market come in all the time
and don't even realize The Tangled Ball exists!

So I recommend knitting or crocheting in BarquentineRoger's bar in the front of the building,
or outside in any of the tables or grassy area to the southeast.
Or even anywhere in Citizen's Park, catty-corner to the northeast of the market! 
          




The Yarn Crawl is coming:  August 1 - 9, 2026


Block off dates in your calendars now!
...keep checking back for updated info.




Due to the wonderful generosity of our customers over the last few years, the amount of yarn we have collected has become overwhelming.  So we need to change up our donation incentive structure to include only premade items, not materials.

We are looking for a new charity or purpose for our donations.  If you have a cause in mind, please let us know so we can coordinate how our community can help out!

Visit our Community Projects page for more details.

Donate!  Knit/crochet from your own stash, or use yarn from the store's donation bin.  Anyone who brings in an item to add to the the collection will receive 10% off a purchase.


Be sure to check out our calendar and the Edgewater Public Market's calendar for upcoming events and classes!
