Why Natural Fiber Yarn?
We support socially and environmentally responsible companies, indie yarn dyers, and individuals, prioritizing fair wages, education opportunities, and traditional fiber heritage. Brands like Sandnes Garn, Manos del Uruguay, Amano Yarns, and Rosa Pomar uphold these values.
Making something with your hands takes time, and using tools that make each stitch comfortable, colorful, and enjoyable is just as important as the yarn you choose.
We offer top-quality tools for knitting or crocheting, ensuring every stitch is a delight. Discover favorites like Lykke, Cocoknits, Chiaogoo, and Katrinkles.

Northern Lights – A Collection with Brooklyn Tweed features twelve knitwear designs made with yarns from Brooklyn Tweed, a company known for their 100% made-in-the-USA wool yarns and timeless knitwear designs.
Amazing designers from around the world joined us in creating this collection inspired by the work of Finnish architects and designers such as Alvar Aalto, Eero Saarinen, and Maija Isola.
Photographs were taken by Brooklyn Tweed co-owner and founder Jared Flood on location at Moerenuma Park in Hokkaido, Japan. Designed by sculptor Isamu Noguchi, the park is a work of sculpture in itself. The beautifully textured knitwear pieces of this collection are a perfect match for the park’s unique fusion of art and nature.
All featuring Brooklyn Tweed yarns, the unisex knitwear designs in this collection are available in a wide range of sizes and can be enjoyed by all genders.
Participating designers: Alice Caetano, Ayako Kataoka, Dario Tubiana, Evgeniya Dupliy, Fiona Alice, Hiromi Otsuru, Keiko Kikuno, Kirsten Joel, Megumi Sawada, Mizuho Komiya, Sari Nordlund, Thien-Kieu Lam
