Handknitting.com


Handknitting.com was founded in 1996 - absolutely prehistoric in terms of the internet! Our company is the oldest continuously operating retail yarn, knitting, and crochet supply exclusively on the web. We are John and Laurel Murphy, and we bought the company in 2006.
We carry a wide variety of handcrafting yarns from famous manufacturers, including Lang of Switzerland, Frangipani, Istex Icelandic yarn, Erika Knight, Universal, and more. We also carry crochet hooks and knitting needles, notions & tools, buttons & shawl pins, books, dvd’s, and brand-specific pattern magazines. Our emphasis is on value and quality.
We established Dyed & Gone as part of Handknitting.com in 2013, in order to bring you the very best in discontinued yarns from select sources. These are first quality, new yarns discounted 30-80% from original price.
