Knitters, wool workers, and other creatives will find a paradise at the Yarn Hound. This enchanting old building is stocked from floor to ceiling with top quality skeins. Crafters can also pop into a $5 drop in knitting class, Tuesdays and Fridays from 1pm-3pm as well as Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10:30-12:30pm. Thursday afternoons feature a special Charity Knitting Circle, where charities such as Wildcare, the Yarmouth Food Pantry, and Katelynn's Closet benefit from the handcrafted goods, or their sales.

Love Cape Cod? Stay tuned for new photographs of Cape Cod taken by CapeCod.com’s photographer Kaitrin.

Kaitrin Acuna grew up in Connecticut and moved to Cape Cod after finishing college. She studied at the University of Connecticut and University College Dublin to obtain a BFA in Photography.

When she’s not exploring the Cape for CapeCod.com, Kaitrin is likely still with a camera in hand, working on a variety of fine art photo projects.

Over the past four years, she has received twelve artist grants to pursue a variety of photographic series around New England and Europe, and has exhibited in shows at the William Benton Museum of Art, the Ely Slade House Museum, as well as several local galleries.

Outside of the photographic world, Kaitrin can be found painting colorful art cars, trying new foods, and planning to travel wherever she can get to.
