Since Joann’s might be going under

#joannfabrics #joann #yarn #yarnspirations #yarnaddict

2025/1/18 Edited to

As Joann’s might be closing for good, it's essential for crafting enthusiasts to know where to find affordable yarn options. Many online retailers offer a wide variety of yarn and supplies at competitive prices. For instance, DROPS offers various yarn types, like their Muskat line, which is not only affordable but also known for its quality. Additionally, LindeHobby frequently has sales, providing discounts on brand-name yarns. Wool Warehouse is another popular choice, offering a diverse range of yarn coupled with sales and clearance sections that can help you stock up for all your crafting needs. Hobbii Yarns stands out with regular promotions and an extensive selection that caters to every type of fiber artist. Plus, they often have deals on summer yarn favorites, such as cotton blends. As these alternatives become increasingly crucial, knowing where to shop online can help you maintain your crafting passion without breaking the bank. Make sure to explore different retailers, looking for unique brands and deals that can keep your projects alive in the face of changing market dynamics.

This is so sad. I hate buying fabric online. Unfortunately, most people aren't taught fiber arts of any kind, and for many people, it's become much less expensive to buy clothes than to make them.

I went into my local Joann’s this week to ask if they were closing. They let me know they are NOT closing - some locations are letting their leases expire bc they were too $$$ but will be opening in new nearby spaces. 🥰🥰
