About Us
About Yarning Hearts
Yarning Hearts was born from a simple belief: that the materials we create with should be as thoughtful as the things we make.
We are a Singapore-based yarn and fibre shop dedicated to curating natural fibres from around the world and building a welcoming community of makers who care about craft, quality, and connection.
Whether you knit, crochet, weave, spin, or are simply curious about fibre arts, we hope Yarning Hearts feels like a place where you can learn, create, and feel at home.
Our Story
Yarning Hearts began in 2019 from a personal search for yarns that felt good to work with, wear, and believe in.
As a knitter and crocheter living in Singapore, I was drawn to natural fibres but often found them difficult to find locally. Many yarns were designed for colder climates or made from synthetic materials that did not align with my values around mindful making. What started as a search for better yarn soon became a deeper curiosity about fibres, their origins, and the stories behind them.
I founded Yarning Hearts with the hope of creating the kind of yarn shop I wished existed: a welcoming place where makers could discover beautiful natural fibres, receive trusted guidance, and find a supportive community.
Before Yarning Hearts, I spent many years as an educator and later as a family photographer. Both experiences taught me the importance of patience, encouragement, and helping people grow in confidence. Those same values continue to shape how we serve our community today.
What keeps me going is not simply the yarn itself, but the people and the connections formed through craft. The beginner who finishes their first scarf. The maker who finally casts on a long-dreamed project. The friendships formed across a crafting table.
Today, Yarning Hearts is a place to learn, gather, create, and connect. Whether you are picking up needles for the first time or have been crafting for decades, we are grateful to be part of your journey.
Our Values
Natural First
We prioritise natural fibres that are enjoyable to work with, wear, and treasure.
Thoughtfully Curated
Every product is selected with intention, quality, and purpose in mind.
Community-Minded
We believe making is better together and invest in spaces where makers can connect and grow.
Trusted Guidance
We are here to support your creative journey with honest advice, education, and encouragement.
Full of Heart
Everything we do is guided by genuine care for our customers, our community, and the craft itself.
Our Commitment to Natural Fibres
Every skein and fibre we carry is chosen with intention.
We focus on natural fibres such as wool, alpaca, linen, cotton, silk, and other plant and animal fibres that bring unique qualities to the making experience. We believe that thoughtful crafting begins with understanding the materials we use and the stories behind them.
Whenever possible, we partner with independent dyers, artisan mills, and small producers who share our values around quality, transparency, and responsible production. We are especially passionate about sourcing fibres that work beautifully in Singapore's climate, helping makers create garments and accessories they will truly enjoy wearing.
Community at Our Core
Crafting may begin with yarn, but it flourishes through community.
Yarning Hearts is a gathering place where makers come together to learn new skills, share ideas, celebrate finished projects, and support one another through the occasional frogging session.
Throughout the year, we host workshops, craft gatherings, knit-alongs, crochet-alongs, and community events designed to help makers of all experience levels feel welcome and inspired.
Whether you are a seasoned maker or just getting started, there is a place for you here.
