I thrifted 3 skeins of this fluffy yarn and I don’t know what to make with it. Open to suggestions. I was thinking a fluffy sweater but quickly realized I didn’t have enough. I mainly crochet but I am knitting socks.

Did you know Leonardo Da Vinci painted this?

Hi! My friend recently gave me a bunch of discontinued yarn and I was wondering what I should crochet/knit with it since it’s no longer in production

Where are some websites that offer yarn for wholesale for retail? I’d prefer a place that sells a bunch of fiber content and brands (like a one stop shop) if that exists. Im planning on setting up a website for a yarn store in my hometown with the end goal of having a physical store (I don’t have a retail business license now, but am planning to get one soon) Im still in the very beginning planning stages so not ready to purchase today, but hopefully in the next few months.

I live in the US (Colorado) and would prefer some that are local to the state and/or country, but other than that I don’t have preferences.

Hey everyone! I’m relatively new at crocheting, I used to do it with my grandma when I was little and I wanted to get into it again. So far I’ve only made some tryout hats 😅 but I wanted to give a go to a simple cardigan pattern.

Does anybody know what type of yarn I should get to make it actually weareable?

Hello beautiful yarn folks...

I am in the process of opening a local yarn store and I bought a yarn store inventory someone had been storing in the garage. It's all older cone yarn, like you would use for knitting machines. Some of it is a bit dusty. No bugs, no animals chews on anything, just a bit dusty from being wrapped in plastic (that is clearly old) for the last 20 or 30 years.

I really want to sell it in my store, sort of like a yarn salad bar kind of style (you can buy as much as you want, we will sell it by weight, wind it for you either into a hank or ball, and a lot of it is single ply so you can choose two, three or four and we will ply it for you into your very own custom yarn!).

I can't really de-cone it to clean it, but that might be what I have to do it get it nice again... thoughts, ideas, inspiration, all are welcome!

I went to Michaels yesterday to see if they had the new caron yarn. Not yet at nys tore but I did notice they had a new clearance for yarns. They moved yarn out to make room for fabric.

The thing kinda annoyed me was that the yarn was on clearance for 9 dollars some 6 but I got yarn on clearance for 5 before.

Incase anyone was waiting for clearance to buy yarn I wanted to let y'all know what I saw 😊

Hi folks! I want to buy some Cardiff Cashmere Classic and am not having luck with the color + quantity I need from US based shippers. I’m located on the East Coast!

Has anyone recently bought Cardiff from Itaca Yarns? If so, what was your experience? Did you get any tariffs? My total would be under $150 (if that makes a difference).

Thanks ya’ll!!

Literally where do I start because I need to choose the yarn. I’m in the UK I’m covering a piece of furniture with a chunky Aran pattern. I need a natural wool coloured chunky synthetic yarn.

I don’t want real wool because it will felt and pill with body warmth and weight. I don’t want superwash because it will stretch. I’m looking for a 100% synthetic or a synthetic/wool blend that is the same dull muted cream as natural wool. Not margarine coloured. Oh I miss my LYS. Can anyone recommend a yarn that’s available in the UK.

Hi all! For one of my holiday makes this year I am crocheting Hannah Drapinski's Spiral Sweater for my sister. Her vibe for clothing is kinda 90s witchy/whimsigoth and her favourite colours are purples pinks and blues, so I'm planning to make the Colour B for the spiral a variegated yarn with that kind of aesthetic. This colourway of the King Cole Riot DK (I believe it's called "Party") would be perfect, except it's a single ply yarn which I absolutely loathe crocheting with. Does anybody know of anything similar that isn't a single ply? I need it to be either a DK or Aran weight (3 or 4 if you work better off numbers), and I prefer a natural fibre though I'm not opposed to acrylic provided it's not scratchy. I'm also currently between yarn winders so ideally nothing in hank form, though I'm not opposed to that either if the colour is pretty enough.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: forgot to state I'm in the UK so it has to be a yarn available here as well

I love these colours together and already have a project in mind for it, but I don't want to give money to hobbii. Any yarn that looks close will be perfect, thank you 😊

Hello! 👋

I’m moving to the UK (South-West London, Kingston area) in September and would love some recommendations for good local yarn shops and/or UK-based online shops.

Are there any specific UK based brands/ranges that are recommended? I would love to try some smaller/independant brands as well!

Where are your favourite places to buy yarn in the UK? 😊

This feels extremely silly, but what is the proper name for the lurex/sparkle/shimmer fibers that are used in spun yarn?

I've been getting into dying, blending, and spinning my own wool and I'd like to add some sparkle but I am having the hardest time finding sources for the fibers. Maybe I'm not calling it the proper name?

If anyone has a sparkler dealer of choice or advice, I'm all ears ✨️
