Knitting Yarns & Notions

Our Knitting Yarns & Notions

Spins and Needles stocks all your knitting and crochet desires. The most sumptuous yarn selection sourced from all over the world as well as locally. We have an excellent range of basic DK yarn in both 100% merino wool and in wool blends. For the most up to date news on what yarns we stock check out either our blog or facebook site.

From very fine lace weights in silk and merino wool to the chunkiest of chunkiest hand dyed 100% wool, something for everyone’s knitting needs.

We stock Brittany knitting needles, crochet hooks and shawl pins. Sustainably sourced in California, lovely to work with and pretty to behold.

As well as Brittany knitting needles we also stock Clover accessories, including the innovative ‘U’ shaped cable needle. The unique shape stops stitches sliding off.

Spins and Needles is also very proud to support local artisans:

We stock Chroma Yarns, beautiful hand dyed yarn by Jonathon in Woodhall Spa. He only uses the best possible yarn and we always have a stock of his Blue Faced Leicester sock, merino wool and occasionally some alpaca. Every batch is different so you’re sure not to see anyone else with this exclusive yarn.

English Alpaca Company, this yarn has never left Lincolnshire, and if you’re lucky you’ll have the name of the alpaca who supplied the fleece. Join us on facebook to see both Pauline and her alpacas.

Nic’s Knots. Local lass Nic makes the most fabulous needle rolls we just couldn’t say no when it came to stocking them. Raved about in various knitting publications get your own roll for your needle or hook collection to keep them safe.

We also have a small selection of British Breeds, and are hoping to increase this, currently stocking Blue Faced Leicester, Jacob and Cotswold as well as 5ply for traditional Jerseys and Guernseys.

  Schoppel Wolle

  We have the amazing Schoppel Wolle, pictured is a Crazy Zauberball. But we stock Flying Saucers and also Klecks. Klecks are a pre-knitted roll that you knit from, or if you just love the colours use it as a scarf.

  Flying Saucers is a yarn that knits socks into a flying saucer pattern. Too good for socks, we think.
