is a small webshop, located in Switzerland, selling exclusively sustainable yarn. What makes the yarn extra sustainable is that it is a surplus product from the textile industry. This also means that the yarn you will find here you cant find anywhere else.
The yarn you find at Save the Yarn. You won’t find it anywhere else, as it’s all from surplus or overproduction from the textile industry. You also can’t be sure of reordering.
100% Alpaca
100% pure alpaca is a true luxury yarn. It will be very suitable for a nice sweater, vest, or cardigan or maybe a nice warm cosy blanket. You can of course knit and crochet with it, and the yarn has a nice thickness, so it goes quickly once you get started. We estimate that 2 skeins will be enough for a sweater in size M, but of course it depends on both pattern and knitting style etc.
Do you need yarn for a stripe, yarn you have previously bought here, or just less than the 100g we usually sell our skeins in. So have a look at our Flea Market.
Summer Yarns
In the category One of a Kind you will find yarns that only come in one colour. It can be all types of quality; wool, cotton, silk & blends.
Take a look!

The yarn is perfect for e.g. Sunday sweater or the Balloon Jacket from Petiteknit.
