Why we offer yarn by the gram: Convenience and flexibility for every customer
But before we go into all the benefits, let’s remember that cone yarn is the “parent” of traditional skeins. The yarn you see in skeins at retail stores originally comes from cones. The difference is that cone yarn allows you to control how much you buy, rather than being limited to standard pre-packaged amounts. This helps you save money and storage space and opens up more creative possibilities.
💡 The Benefits of Buying Yarn by the Gram
Save Money: Buy exactly as much yarn as you need for your project.
Convenience: No need to store large cones - perfect for smaller projects.
Flexibility: Easily mix and match different colors and fiber blends without leftover waste.
For example, 50 grams is plenty if you're knitting baby socks. Or, if you need a few meters of an accent color for a sweater or accessory, buying by the gram allows you to get exactly the amount you need.

🔗 Fewer Knots
Cone yarn has much fewer knots compared to skein yarn, which is especially important when working with thicker yarns. This ensures a smoother knitting or crocheting experience without interruptions, making it a valuable feature for larger projects.
⚠️ Important note
We offer yarn starting from 50 grams. Additionally, if the remaining yarn on the cone after your order is less than 300 grams, we will need to offer you the option to purchase the entire cone.
For example, if you need 450 grams and the last cone has only 620 grams, we’ll offer you the whole cone, or you can choose to decline and we’ll proceed with the available amount. 🧵
But if you want a whole cone, who’s stopping you? Go for it, knit away, and enjoy the process!
This format is especially great for those who love experimenting with textures, combining colors, and trying out new yarn blends. Buying yarn by the gram gives you the freedom to create exactly what you envision! 🎨
🧮 We’ve Got Scales for You!
In our store, you’ll find several scales available for customer use, so you can weigh any cone yourself and purchase exactly the amount you need.
