We have joined the Ptarmigan Arts Co-op! We’re very excited about this new adventure and it means our yarns will now be available to locals and visitors every day! You will be able to find our one of a kind dot dyes, the Alaskan Colors Collection, kits, and roving! The gallery is open every day but if you don’t see what you need, you can always call. (907-299-0601)

Gallery hours are 10AM to 6PM every day. Winter hours 11 to 5. The Gallery is located at 471 E. Pioneer Ave, parking is in back.

It has been almost a year since the yarn shop Knitty Stash closed its doors. I miss the shop but mostly I miss you all! In this past year I’ve refocused on dying one-of-a-kind yarns and have spent lots of time learning new ways to be in business. Pop Up Shop events have become a good way for me to stay connected locally and also be available to Homer visitors.

I try to schedule a Pop Up or another event at least once a month, and sometimes more frequently if the opportunity arises! I am in the midst of planning this summer’s events and will publish a schedule in advance so you’ll know where to find me. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to call if you are traveling to Homer and need a yarn fix — my dye studio is here in town and I can often be available to show you yarns!

The Alaskan Yarn Co. developed an Alaskan Color way about 5 years ago after visitors kept asking for ‘local’ yarns. Since spinning takes too long we came up with colors we see around us in Alaska. The seven Alaskan colors are Chugach Forest, Denali Autumn, Fireweed, High bush Cranberry, Kachemak Bay, Lupine and Northern Lights. There are great pictures in the slider on the home page.

We also offer Dot Dyes which are also sock yarn but each is a one of a kind and not reproducible. We can get close sometimes but there will always be variables.

We offer wholesale to LYS businesses around Alaska and elsewhere. In the online store there is a wholesale sample box option that will give you a chance to see what our colors look like. The box contains two skeins each of the the Alaskan color way and 3 different Dot Dyes.  Once we have your tax ID and contact information, we will ship out your sample box.  Contact us for more information.

No online stores please.

We predominately sell sock yarn and worsted weight but all our color ways can be made in other weights. Ask us for specifics. We are happy to answer any questions and look forward to hearing from you.
