Retail customers

We do not sell yarn directly to the public. For all of your knitting and crochet needs, please visit one of our fine yarn shops, listed below or on the Contact Us page.

Crystal Palace Yarns is a Richmond, California yarn company known for turning straw into gold: transforming natural and synthetic fibers into spun, dyed, and lightly twisted yarn in an extensive range of colors, weights, and fiber blends. Because the company does not sell yarn directly to the public, knitters and crocheters are guided toward independent yarn shops that carry the line, making this a resource for finding a local retailer rather than a checkout page.

The shop list on this page organizes retail locations by country, state, and province, covering California, Oregon, Washington, New York, Massachusetts, Texas, Illinois, and Canada, along with British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec, plus the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, Japan, and other regions. An online shops section points to retailers that carry Crystal Palace Yarns, and DAISY needles are available through online shops as well.

Beyond the shop finder, the site offers a wealth of free knit and crochet patterns, including sock, hat, and daisy designs, along with a sock index and bag index for browsing projects by type. Yarn cards, DAISY knitting needles, and felting resources support crafters at every stage, from choosing fiber and needles to finishing a finished piece with confidence.

The history behind Crystal Palace Yarns is tied to the early straw and fiber work of Berkeley, where spinning and dyeing traditions shaped a lasting specialty yarn house. Files, documents, and records of the studio's past give context to the company, while wholesale information for shops and indie yarn retailers helps extend the line into new communities of knitters, crocheters, quilters, and fiber artists.
