Mary Stowe is the owner and creative talent behind yarns etc... and Great Yarns. Mary grew up as one of six children in Greensboro. She has been knitting since age 6, having been taught by her mother and grandmother. She has always been creatively active, knitting, sewing, designing, doing needlepoint, even making costumes for her high school performances.
Mary graduated from The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She worked at Women's Day magazine in the Crafts Department, taught knitting at FIT, worked at a yarn store in the Upper West Side, and had many other adventures during her time in NYC.
After much traveling, Mary returned to Greensboro where she met her husband, Chris, had her son Evan (now 14) and started the first yarns etc... At the same time Mary served for nine years as the yarn rep to 10 companies all over the Southeast!
Mary and her family now live in Chapel Hill, when not working they love to travel and spend time on North Carolina's beautiful beaches. Stay tuned for more adventures with yarns etc...
