Yarn Brands

There are so many wonderful yarns and fibers, it can be overwhelming. If you have tried a yarn and loved it, you may want to look for other yarns by the same brand as they may share those qualities that you enjoyed. Here then is a page to help you do just that!

One part of the yarn business we love is selecting our yarns, and we take great pride and great care in so doing. We scour the globe for the very best - and also find the finest domestic and locally produced yarns (look for our expanding organic / naturally dyed lines too!).

We are a bit unusual or "old-school" in that sample cards are an important part of our business. They allow our customers to see the true colors, feel the yarn, and learn more about each individual yarn in a "tactile" and visual style that simply can not happen any other way... Unlues you visit us in the store! Until then, try a sample card, and we hope you enjoy searching for yarns as much as we do!
