Lion Brand Yarn Outlet

Awesome place! Great yarn for great prices. All the yarn is organized and neat making it easy to find what your looking for. They even have pre made items and I got an awesome hat with a huge Pom Pom for $ 5!!! The location is random, but I was impressed and pleased with this outlet! Will definitely be back.

Awesome! Much smaller than the pictures show, but awesome! I got 16 skeins of yarn in 7 colors for under $ 40! Much cheaper than a craft store, with great selection! The only downside is that it’s out of the way; if you don’t have a GPS or smartphone, don’t even try to get there.

best bang for your buck. The only draw back is the road leading up to the place sucks; it desperately needs repaving.

I went here for the first time and I’ll definitely be going back frequently. I’m extremely new to knitting and went here out of curiosity. The yarns are organized by type and color and are unbelievably a affordable. If I had purchased the same exact type and amount of yarn in any craft store, I would have spent more than double.

I absolutely love this place. I have made beautiful plush crochet blankets with their home spun yarns which would have cost a great deal more retail. The savings is huge but you do need to buy in volume. Which let’s face it if you are seeking this place out you are already prepared to do.
It is kind of hard to find but we’ll worth the trip if you love their yarns. I can’t leave the place without a few shopping bags. I haven’t attended any of their stitch ins but I really am looking forward to once my schedule allows. I’ve looked into their big fish bowl meeting room with envy. Everyone seems to be happy and comfortable.

OMG so much yarn. I loved it but I wish they had a little more selection. To be so out of the way, it doesn’t have as much as I’d hoped.
They do have a really cool little sit down area with coffee and a microwave to heat up food.

Yes you are in the right path… It’s pretty much the Teterborough area. Despite the industrial buildings around you. If possible drive your suv since the road is filled with potholes. My GPS failed me when we get closer but just pay attention to the signs and you’ll be fine.
There are ladies meeting every weekend (at least Sunday) to knit together and they are very friendly. I am a super beginner knitter and one lady went out her way to teach me a few things which certainly helped since I really have no clue!
Yes you do have to buy in threes but their prices can’t be beat, even after you take into account the abundant discounts from Michael’s. They have limited sets of needles but if you order online from their store, they will wave delivery fee.

Don’t waste your time! I was expecting this outlet to carry a vast selection of colors from all their styles of yarn, but that wasn’t the case. I was looking for wool ease thick and quick and they only had 2 vomit looking colors available. The one personnel lady was not personable at all. The only good thing, if you’re looking for the baby yarn, they do have that in various baby colors available. They also have a lot of the Vanna’s choice worsted yarn in neutral colors, i.e. black, taupe, etc. Otherwise, nothing that really screamed «Sale» to me. You are better of gathering a few 50% or 40% off coupons from Joann’s and getting it there. The Internet such as knitting-​warehouse has good lion brand prices. I was totally disappointed driving about an hour to get there, not worth it!

Lion Brand keeps getting smarter and smarter about marketing its wares! For standard items — great prices/​huge discounts. My price rating is based on the standard items as, unfortunately, LB Collection (with such items as the most yummy cashmere) are not discounted at all. However, consider that you pay no sales tax as you do at the NY Studio or no shipping costs when buying online. It appears that all yarns must be bought in bags of three skeins each.
Great selection — colors are popular ones,(well, ones that I like) and do not appear to be overstocks of unpopular colors or prior year remains.
Store is bright, airy, and clean. Love the exhibits, with their crocheted and knit animals and assorted props. Staff is very helpful.
Please frequent this store so that the company keeps it going! Plenty of parking. DRIVING TIP: Kero Road is very easy to miss, so watch road signs very carefully. Company sign on street sign is easy to miss too. Once you’re on Kero, go all the way to the end for the outlet. It’s closed on Saturdays but open on Sundays.

First quality discontinued yarns in bags of 3 at 50% off or lower. If you’re looking for Lion Brand Yarn no longer available online or at the Studio, I’d hit this spot up first before searching on Rav.
Outlet hosts surprise specials on limited quantity items including books and accessories. Like the Studio, there are Mac computers available to browse LionBrand.com’s 4,000+ free pattern website. Very comfy, there is free wifi and a lounge where you can sit and knit & crochet.
The LB Collection of luxury fibers of Silk/.Mohair, Superwash Merino, Baby Alpaca and Organic Wool are also sold in bags of 3, but these items are available at their regular prices.

Well done displays– the Coney Island Wonder Wheel and Cyclone Rollercoaster are amazingly detailed. The shelves are stocked 70% acrylics and the other 5% wool, 5% notions and books, the remaining 20% are the LB Collection.
There are 3 racks of pattern books and pamphlets but each rack had the same items. I did manage to spend $ 143 on 50 skeins– again, they bag up skeins 3 to a bag, the regular cost for one skein– say $ 8– is the cost for the 3 skeins in the bag. Also picked up a crochet hook for $ 1 and size 19 knitting needles for $ 2. There are sale priced and regular priced knit and crochet notions, most of these behind the sales desk.
I especially like the huge lounge with a mini kitchen, great for Sn’B’s and classes. They were stocked with different boxes of Girl Scout cookies and Splenda Fudge Dipped Vanilla Wafers. I made myself a cuppa to take about while I perused the shop and helped myself to a snack– bonus!
