​Since 2008 the Everlea Guide to Vancouver Yarn has been Vancouver's online DIY textile directory. 

There is a lot of fibre goodness to find in and around Vancouver British Columbia. In fact, Vancouver is a DIY textile destination -  particularly in the fall when the Maiwa School of Textiles Symposium occurs, as well as the annual festival Knit City. The Vancouver area is also home to many popular hand-dyed yarn companies and cherished knit and crochet designers.

​Here's what else you'll find here:
I list all the yarn shops in Greater Vancouver and beyond, all of which have a VY page displaying info like a map, phone number, website and some of the yarn brands they carry.

The events page offers a list of reoccurring events as well as a link to recently blogged-about events.

The Canadian Yarn & Fabric page features indie dyers, mills, farm-specific, breed-specific and Canadian-made commercial yarn, as well as a small list of Canadian milled fabric.

The Commercial Yarn Online page lists online commercial yarn and fabric shops which are based in Canada, many of which are in BC.

​There's so much more,  just look under the Around Town tab.

Vancouver Yarn is founded and run by Janna Maria Vallee.

​Hi, that's me pictured filming my tapestry weaving workshop for the School of SweetGeorgia.
​
I am a tapestry weaver, natural dyer, instructor and longtime knitter. I was born and raised on the Sunshine Coast of BC before living in Vancouver for over a decade, two years of which were spent in the late Textile Art diploma program at Capilano University. I then made the move to Montreal in 2010 to complete my Bachelor of Fine Arts in the Fibres and Material Practices program at Concordia University. After spending a few years based in the New York metropolitan area I returned to BC with my family in 2016. In 2018 I launched Everlea Yarn featuring organic merino hand-dyed by me with plant dyes.
