What is the NYC YARN CRAWL?

The NYC Yarn Crawl is an annual fall extravaganza where knitters, crocheters, spinners, dyers and fiber craft lovers of all kinds visit Manhattan and Brooklyn's finest local yarn shops to celebrate our community and love of fiber arts.  With stores in both Brooklyn and Manhattan, crawlers visit a wonderful variety of neighborhoods across NYC, and with shops ranging from tiny jewels to needlework meccas, and there are new discoveries at every turn.

Your favorite shops are thrilled to welcome you to safely touch, squeeze and sniff the latest yarns from your favorite dyers, check out the newest patterns, and savor the feeling of reconnecting with your best fiber friends. Manhattan shops are all over: Uptown East, Midtown West and the East and West Villages. The Brooklyn shops are in fun and ppopular neighborhoods of Red Hook, Cobble Hill, Windsor Terrace, Greenpoint and Bushwick.

There's something for everyone and each store has their own exclusives you won't find anywhere else.

To ensure your safety and that of the staff at each shop, we continue to follow CDC and New York State COVID guidelines.
