Welcome to Marin Fiber Arts

Thanks for stopping by our online yarn shop! Formerly a brick-and-mortar yarn shop in Northern California, we are now dedicated to providing the online knitting and crocheting community with a unique selection of hard-to-find high-quality commercial yarns and hand dyed yarns for your knitting and crocheting pleasure. We love color; when we find a yarn we love, we offer it in a large range of colors, not just a few "popular" shades. In some instances we do not stock every color that we offer on the website: instead we have forged strong relationships with yarn companies so that we can get your color from the company quickly. You are always welcome to email us in order to inquire about the availability of a particular color. Bookmark our home page and check back often - we are continually upgrading the site with new and exciting yarns.

The Mitered Rectangles Throw is a great new afghan pattern from the genius of renowned designer Melissa Leapman. We are now offering this pattern along with the required yarn, a terrific tweedy wool blend called Filtweed from Ornaghi Filati. Get info on the Mitered Rectangles Throw project.

Pagewood Farm is a small indie dyer in San Pedro, Califorina whose spectacularly subtle colorways set them apart. Robin Page uses a special dyeing technique that virtually eliminates any chance of pooling, striping, or flashing of colors. Robin also has a wonderful eye for color and accomplishes extraordinary combinations of colors. Did I mention that hand dyed sock yarns are her specialty? Shop for Pagewood Farm yarns.

Mountain Colors has been creating hand dyed yarns in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana for over 15 years. Their colors are rich, subtle and inspired by the amazing mountains, rivers, and woodlands that surround their studio. Marin Fiber Arts has been designated a "special order shop", meaning we can get you any yarn in any of their standard colorways very quickly! We are gradually adding their entire inventory of yarns and colors to our website, so if you don't see something you want, send us an email! Shop for Mountain Colors yarns.

Claudia Hand Painted Yarns is a small company in Harrisonburg, Virginia who makes an amazing array of beautiful hand dyed colorways.

Ornaghi Filati is an Italian yarn company who, unlike most yarn companies, spins and dyes commercial yarn for many European yarn companies. Ornaghi Filati also produces its own line of yarns with the distinctive panda bear on the label. Their line is huge and offers everything anyone would want, from superwash merinos to cottons to acrylic blends. Shop for Ornaghi Filati yarns.

Clearance Yarns - for almost 4 years Marin Fiber Arts was a brick and mortar yarn store; here you will find great deals on yarns that formerly lived on the shelves of the physical yarn shop. Quantities are limited, and many of these yarns and/or colors are discontinued! Shop for Clearance yarns.
