A Social Enterprise formed through a shared passion for yarn
Our Shop
We operate as a Social Enterprise, which means every penny from our shop sales and events goes back into our community. Our work is driven by four core aims: improving mental health and wellbeing, reducing social isolation, preserving heritage yarn and textile skills, and opening doors to training and employment in the textile industry.
We support a range of small independent businesses in stocking their products. We cater for all budgets and project types we also stock a range of commercial brands such as Rico, Rowan, Cygnet Yarns, Opal and Schoppel Wolle, You will also find a wide range of brands of needles and hooks, accessories and notions to help inspire you for any new yarn project. ,
As a Northern Ireland distributor for Ashford and Kromski & Sons Spinning wheels and looms we also have an expanding range of products for those who want to take their yarn crafts to a whole new level and explore these amazing heritage skills.
