Let's get into Lucky Textile “10’s of Yarn”! Craft trends come and go, but some exciting ones never seem to disappear throughout the decade. So let’s turn to top yarn trends from the past 10 years, and celebrate the inspiration of yarn enthusiasts from the 2010s!
The 2010’s have been the decade of the hand-dyed/indie dyed yarn as crafters have looked more and more for specialty yarns that are one of a kind. Multicolored and audacious designs have become all the rage, giving a contemporary take on knitting and crochet tradition.
Sustainable knitting and eco-friendly yarn options Over the last decade, we have had more of a focus on the sustainability of the yarns we use and so on eco-friendly options - organic cotton, bamboo and recycled fibres are becoming increasingly popular amongst those of us who like to knit and crochet. This sustainability-led mindset has seen the rise of slow fashion and reinvigorated interest in handmade and crafted clothes.
A few of the most popular yarn brands of the 2010s were Malabrigo, Madelinetosh, and Hedgehog Fibres whose exceptional fibers and gorgeous colorways were loved by all. Merino-wool, alpaca and silk mixtures, were also the most sought after by knitters and crocheters in search of a luxurious hand feel and drape.
BOTH fans of the craft find the best projects and techniques of the past decade in the world of knitting & crochet, ranging from intricate lace shawls to stylish garments and cute toys. Brioche stitch, mosaic knitting and Tunisian crochet are just a few styles that have become favourites, encouraging needleworkers to experiment with new fibre techniques.
Yarn crafters across the globe have found ways for expression and community in their love for wool and needles in the 2010s, whether it be through blogging, social media, or knitting groups. Friendship and personal connection among makers has created an industry full of yarn lovers, and fans of handmade things!
