Belladonna’s Yarn Room Celebrates One Year in Cranford

Today, Aug. 28, 2013, marks her one-year anniversary in the spot and she is looking forward to many more years to come.

“Thank you to everyone that I have met throughout the past year at Belladonna's Yarn Room,” Del Guercio said as she approached the one-year mark. “This has truly been a dream come true! Everyday has been a great day.”

As a child, Del Guercio always dreamed of owning a yarn store and instead of entering retirement, she decided to open the “yarn room” on N. Union Avenue in Cranford.

“Other people dream of becoming rich and famous, I wanted to knit and crochet all day,” she says on her about me on Belladonna’s website. “Or at least be surrounded by gorgeous wool and silk yarn.”

Belladonna’s offers a variety of classes in knitting and crocheting for beginners and the more experienced. Some of the usual classes include, Knitting 101, Crochet 101, a Friday Knit Club and Breakfast Knit Club on Saturday’s. It also has a variety of interior furnishings that you won’t find anywhere else, according to Del Guercio.
