Yarn brands

Choosing yarns by brand guarantees you’ll be working with materials that offer consistent quality, continuity across colour ranges, and reliable technical performance. Each brand has its own philosophy, production methods and quality standards. Some focus on sustainable fibres, others on a wide colour palette, or on creating yarns specifically designed for techniques such as crochet, knitting or punch needle. Buying by brand gives you the confidence that the yarn will behave exactly as you expect.

At Garmonyarns we work with a carefully curated selection of brands renowned for their quality, innovation and commitment to sustainability. Some of the brands you’ll find include Scheepjes, DROPS, Rico Design, Kremke Soul Wool, BC Garn, Erika Knight, Performance, Gazzal, Etrofil, YarnArt, Fibra Natura and Sensy. Each one offers collections tailored to different styles, techniques and needs, from vegan or recycled yarns to premium wools with full traceability.

There isn’t a single best brand, but rather recommended options depending on the technique. For crochet and amigurumi, brands such as Scheepjes, DROPS or Rico Design stand out, offering mercerised cotton, matte cotton or high-twist acrylic yarns. For knitting, options such as BC Garn, Kremke Soul Wool or Erika Knight offer merino, alpaca and sustainable fibres with excellent softness and elasticity. For punch needle, brands such as Rico Design, Scheepjes or Sensy offer yarns in weights and textures that work well with different needle sizes.

If you’re looking for yarns with a genuine commitment to the environment, at Garmonyarns you’ll find several brands that lead the way in sustainability. Kremke Soul Wool stands out for its recycled and vegan yarns. BC Garn offers GOTS-certified organic fibres. Erika Knight works with locally sourced British wool, produced with sustainability and traceability in mind. Other brands such as Scheepjes or Performance also include recycled or low-impact yarn lines in their ranges.

To choose the most suitable brand, think about three aspects: the technique you’re going to use, the fibre composition you prefer, and your personal values (sustainability, local production, price, etc.). If you prioritise colour and variety, Scheepjes and Rico Design are excellent options. If you value natural, sustainable fibres, choose BC Garn, Kremke or Erika Knight. For practical projects, or if you’re looking for great value for money, DROPS, Gazzal, Performance or YarnArt offer versatile, budget-friendly options.

Yes, you can combine yarns from different brands as long as they have similar characteristics in terms of weight, fibre content and tension (gauge). Ideally, make sure your tension swatch matches the pattern you’re following. Many crocheters and knitters mix yarns from brands such as Scheepjes, DROPS or Rico Design because they offer compatible ranges in colours, weights and textures. However, it’s best to work a swatch first to ensure the combination works well in the finished fabric.

Buying by brand at Garmonyarns gives you the peace of mind of working with guaranteed-quality yarns, with the assurance that you’re purchasing genuine materials with consistency in colour and technical performance. You can also easily access each brand’s full collections, filter by your needs, and get expert advice. We work with brands that share our values: quality, innovation, sustainability and a passion for yarn crafts.
