I love yarn and yes, I do admit it’s an addiction. Yarn to me is dreams, designs and possibilities in the making, not just different weights or colors of fiber sitting on a shelf. When I see certain colors I start to envision what that yarn can turn into and next thing you know, I’m designing.
There are so many companies that offer great yarns to knit with and so many Indy Dyers to tempt us but for me personally, there’s a couple of dyers that really make me “drool” when I see their latest and loveliest creations.
So, here’s a few favorites to share today that you may or may not know about:
- Sanguine Gryphon specializes handpainted yarns, unique one of a kind patterns, and many other goodies.
- Blue Moon Fiber Arts is known for the Rockin’ Sock Clubs and specializes in handpainted yarns in a variety of fibers.
- Indigo Moon specializes in handpainted yarns in wool, wool blends, silk and silk blends. They also have many yarns that are hand-dyed using natural dyes.
- Sunshine Yarns specializes in hand-dyed yarns in a wide array of tempting colors and weights. This small yarn company is known for movie inspired colorways such as the line for Harry Potter and Twilight. Yarn clubs are available.
Happy knitting all!
I totally understand what you mean about your Yarn addiction. Some of my friends that do not knit look at me really strange when I tell them, that I sometimes dream about yarn and the things that I can do with it.
I guess that this is something that only another addicted knitter would understand.
Thanks for the list of yarn places. I knew about only one of them, but not the others.
You’re so welcome and I hope you have fun checking out the other shops for even more yarny goodness
