Yarn companies around NYC

By QC

*Yarn companies are sorted by location. Please note that the store hours of operation might vary. The retailers below sell mostly hand-knitting yarns, but there are a few websites that sell cones for machine knitting.

Before making any purchases, it’d be wise to shop around and compare prices and to keep in mind that the colors you see on your monitor will most likely be different from the actual colors of the yarn in the store. Lastly, don’t be shy to ask for student discounts (most places will give students a 10% discount)!
