How to Shop Discontinued Yarn for Your Next Project

Shopping a yarn clearance sale is a fantastic way to stock up on luxury fibers like merino, silk, and alpaca without breaking the bank. However, because these are discontinued yarns, the most important rule is to buy more than you think you need. Since we cannot restock these specific dye lots or colorways, ensuring you have an extra skein or two for your sweater or afghan is the best way to avoid the dreaded "yarn chicken."

The Best Projects for Closeout and Clearance Yarn

Closeout knitting yarn is perfect for a variety of budget-friendly projects:

  • Stash-Busting Blankets: Mix and match different textures from our clearance section to create a unique, eclectic throw.
  • Gift Knitting: Stock up on premium fibers at a discount to knit high-end hats, cowls, and mittens for the holiday season.
  • Charity Knitting: Our discounted yarn packs allow you to knit more hats and blankets for those in need while staying within your budget.

Why Do Yarns Go on Closeout?

Yarn manufacturers frequently update their seasonal palettes or retire specific lines to make room for new innovations. This doesn't mean the quality has changed—it just means you get to benefit from liquidated yarn prices. Whether it’s a change in branding or a color that is no longer in production, our yarn outlet section is updated regularly with fresh deals for every type of fiber artist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is closeout yarn?

Closeout yarn refers to high-quality skeins that have been discontinued by the manufacturer or are part of a colorway that is no longer being produced. Because we cannot order more, we offer these remaining items at significantly discounted prices to make room for new inventory.

Can I return yarn purchased from the closeout section?

Most items in our yarn clearance and closeout sections are considered "final sale." We recommend double-checking your project’s yardage requirements before purchasing, as we won't be able to restock the same dye lot once it sells out.

Is closeout yarn lower quality than regular yarn?

Not at all! Our closeout yarns are the exact same premium fibers we carry at full price. They are only moved to this section when a brand decides to retire a specific line or refresh their color palette, allowing you to get top-tier yarn at a fraction of the cost.
