Take a drive upstate: we're located at 60 Broadway—in Tivoli in New York's beautiful Hudson Valley (near Red Hook, in Dutchess County). We're 5 minutes north of Rhinebeck off Route 9G, just across the bridge from Woodstock, Kingston and Saugerties—or a lovely 2-hour drive north of NYC.

Fab Yarn: your small local and online yarn store

We are a small local, independent luxury yarn and fiber shop—online here at fabulousyarn.com and in Tivoli NY at 60 Broadway. We focus on specialized, handspun, handmade and fabulous yarns for the most discriminating of knitters and crocheters.

What this means: Most importantly it means that we try, try, try to meet your requests as accurately and as quickly as possible. We strive to get you what you want, in the best way possible. We know in the online world, everyone is used to immediate satisfaction - but please, keep in mind: these are specialized, handpainted, luxury yarns. Sometimes getting you exactly what you want (ie, a matched lot of 12) takes a bit of time.

We're a small "Mom & Pop" shop with a HUGE selection. We started with one or two specialty yarns from Artyarns and Blue Sky Alpacas in 2005 and since then have expanded our line of knitting yarns and accessories to include all kinds of fiber and related products, from knitting needles and crochet hooks to books, patterns and spinning wheels, plus a big range of luxury bags and totes (good for carrying anything!)

More About Us

Fabulousyarn evolved from a hand knit business called fabsweaters, which was started in 2003. When you run a handknit business, you have tons of yarn sitting around, and people kept asking to buy it, so we started selling it.

What started as a small addition to a totally different business became its own thing in January of '06. And what started as a simple website devoted to one or two yarns has evolved into an obsession for us, a web site devoted to, well, fabulous fibers. We've grown and grown over the past year, and have made the commitment to brick and mortar after friends and customers hounded us to do it.

Why a yarn store in Tivoli, New York?

Well, it started with our friend Lisa. She was a real estate agent, and our space is next to Gary DiMauro (now Sotheby's) Real Estate (if you're looking for wonderful properties up here, I highly recommend them!). One look at this space--and we just had to do it. Besides getting all the yarn out of our attic, and saving ourselves serious head injury from the crossbeams, we now are part of a wonderful community. Across the street are wonderful eateries--for a list, checkout tivolinow.com. Our new space in Tivoli, NY is fabulous, beautiful and just waiting for you to visit.
