Our Story
Knitting, crocheting, and the fiber arts in general are no longer a craft of the past. While yes your grandmother probably does one of these, that does not make any of the fiber arts a boring old-time craft! The Modern Skein is here to show you that no matter your age, background, or generation you might fall into, you too should have access to the finest, modern, up-to-date, yarn and fiber, notions, and accessories available.
With carefully curated yarns, knitting and crocheting accessories (we love crochet too!), totes, and other fiber related items, we strive to be your fresh, modern, go to source for all your Artisan craft needs.
Sharon's dream of owning a yarn shop came true July of 2017 and The Modern Skein Online Shop was born. Fast forward to January 2018, the dream of a storefront was taking shape, and we opened the doors March 8th, 2018. In February 2020 we were able to expand the shop and double the size, allowing for even more community! You will also find The Modern Skein at Fiber Festivals around the state.
Our customers are amazing, and we would love to have you join us! Become a regular of the shop if you are local, or come when you can or are in town. EVERYONE is welcome! If you are out of state or country, We hope you will pick us as your online shop of choice, follow our Instagram feed for the latest new products, events and more.
