Yarn From Around the World
Curated cone yarn and luxury surplus yarn, sourced with intention.
Spun with history. Dyed with culture. Rescued with purpose.
That Yarn is an independent yarn curation studio specializing in cone yarn and luxury surplus yarn sourced from mills and professional knitwear factories around the world. We work primarily with mill ends, surplus lots, and unused factory stock—exceptional fibers that were never meant to be discarded.
From the legendary spinning mills of Italy to quiet dye houses in Japan, every cone we select carries the imprint of its origin. These yarns are chosen for their material quality, texture, and character, not for mass appeal. Wool, alpaca, cashmere, silk—often in rare blends and small batches—arrive exactly as they leave the mill, honest and unaltered.
That Yarn exists for makers who value material knowledge, transparency, and the quiet beauty of industrial yarn in its original state. This is not trend-driven yarn. It is yarn with provenance, purpose, and a second life.

A Yarn Museum for Makers
A curated collection of cone yarn for knitting, weaving, and exploration.
That Yarn is more than a yarn shop—it is a curated collection. We think of it as a small yarn museum for makers who enjoy exploring material the way artists explore paint.
Each cone is selected not only for what it can make, but for what it represents: a specific mill, a production moment, a texture that may never be repeated. Cone yarn invites experimentation—swatching, combining, weaving, knitting without strict rules.
We don’t believe yarn needs to be loud to be meaningful. These are quiet materials with depth, waiting to be interpreted by the hands that choose them. Perhaps one cone will become a garment. Perhaps another becomes a sample, a study, or the beginning of a new idea. That is part of the joy.

Our Beginning on eBay
Where sharing yarn became a connection.
That Yarn began on eBay, through a small shop known as That Yarn Outlet. It was our first window to the world, and a place where rare yarns met curious makers.
From the beginning, it was never just about selling yarn. It was about sharing material knowledge, answering questions, and helping each cone find its next storyteller. Many of our long-time customers discovered That Yarn there, one cone at a time.
That eBay shop is still part of our journey today. It represents our roots—built on trust, transparency, and genuine connection—and continues to shape how we curate and present yarn at That Yarn.
