Versatile and affordable yarn
I really like Northampton for its large color range and also it’s affordable. It’s great for items like blankets that will get a lot of use. It’s great for both knit or crochet blankets. It wears well.

Great yarn, wish for more options
I make wool beanies for a living. Quality and price are important. It seemed like a basic wool with a reasonable price. It is a basic plied wool, so I expect it to be durable. It is nice to work with and I have no issues. I like it and will continue to use it as long as it is available. I only chose this yarn because my favorites were no longer available through your website. You are out of stock of all my preferred yarns and no information as to whether you will restock.
Hello, thank you for your feedback! We’re really glad to hear the yarn is working well for your projects. We’re sorry your preferred yarns were out of stock. We understand how important consistency is and are working on restocking popular lines as soon as possible. If you’d like updates, please feel free to get in touch or use the "Notify Me" option on the product page to be alerted when items are back in stock. Thank you again for your support.

I knit this checkered band hat. Yarn is nicely soft and easy to work with.

Difficult to place order, poor customer service which took weeks to hear back from and was not helpful. I have never had trouble placing an online order and I couldn’t place it from multiple devices with multiple browsers.
One of my favorite 100% wool garment yarns
At the moment, I’m wearing a sweater knit from Valley Yarn’s Northampton and I have two more Northampton sweaters on my needles. This sweater is the first thing I put on in the morning. It’s so warm and cozy. There’s quit a bit of pilling at first but after the first few days of wearing a new Northampton garment, a good de-pilling sets it right. If you plan to gift a Northampton garment, be sure to include instructions on de-pilling so the recipient knows how to keep the garment presentable....
My new favorite worsted weight - non- super wash!!
My new favorite!! This is a lovely, super soft, untreated wool that is better than I hoped for. It is my new go-to standard. Fast service with shipping. All around great experience.
