Description

We are two friends, Janis and Christen, brought together in the Queen City of Charlotte by our love for knitting and yarn. Casual wine and dye nights together nurtured our passion for putting color to skein. Now we want to share that passion with you!

Our products start with one of eight great yarn bases, each named for a neighborhood in the Queen City that reflects their personality. Seven of these bases are commercially spun superwash yarns.

Our non-superwash base, Berryhill, is Queen City Yarn's first locally sourced, small- batch, mill-spun yarn. We worked with Echoview Fiber Mill, located just outside Asheville, NC, to create this beautiful fingering-weight merino and alpaca blend yarn. Berryhill is well suited for color work and has a gorgeous hand and drape. You can be confident you'll have a soft and cozy finished object, no matter which you choose.

The colors we apply are inspired by the beautiful things we see around us, breathtaking places we have visited, as well as Christen's two young children. While each color we produce can stand on its own, one of the guiding principles of color development at Queen City Yarn is designing coordinating colorways as well as colors that beautifully contrast one another. We want to make choosing colors for projects easy, whether it be for a gorgeous fade or perfect color pop.
