Our collection is a reflection of our love for artistic freedom, our appreciation for time-honored skills, and our commitment to delivering you a feast of the very best materials to satisfy your creative fancy. Whether you're visiting our online store from afar, or stopping into our workshop located in scenic Lakewood, Ohio, we invite you to explore our nurturing and whimsical habitat.
Soul Food for Fiber Artists
How about a warm fuzzy?... We stock inspiration you can touch -- ideas you can feel in textures like alpaca, wool, merino, angora, linen, mohair, cotton, and modern acrylic, viscose and polyester. Traditional, funky, wooly, sparkly and soft as silk -- a full house of yarns provides a diverse palette for fiber artists, yarn junkies, brand-new knitters and practiced hands.
Color your world... Natural yarns in the earth's favorite colors share space with hand-painted fibers that give pop and panache to any project -- eye candy! We invite you to explore the magic of color. The well-trained eyes of our staff will help you pair up surprising combinations for any pattern.
Only the finest... Fill your project bag with a sampling of some of the world's finest fibers and craft stock. Our studio is nestled on the Rocky River, with easy access to Great Lakes trade routes. This provides River Colors Studio a fortunate opportunity to capture a global assortment of superb-quality goods from places like the Silk Road of Asia and other fiber nations. We share these treasures with you!
An Inventive Approach
So many possibilities... Our studio is bursting with potential new projects, artistic embellishments, fashionable patterns and a well-rounded stock of yarns to satisfy your imagination. We admit, the assortment is overwhelming -- where to start? Luckily, our staff generates fresh ways to approach knitting projects every day. Thanks to our loyal customers (who usually become great friends and yarn addicts, just as we are!), River Colors Studio is a melting pot of creative energy.
We hate to brag, but... Our staff and customers are just as colorful and interesting as our fiber and craftstock collection. We're dreamers, entrepreneurs, creators, trendsetters and traditionalists. We're artists, and our common thread is a love and appreciation of the way we convert the most base materials into something quite wondrous.
Learn something new... Dress up basic knits, and learn how to master challenging cables, intarsia, lacework and other complex stitches. Or, get hooked on crochet, learn to knit for your children -- and of course, treat yourself with classes where our expert staff will teach you how to accomplish garments, designer knitwear and home décor. We can suggest project ideas for every skill level. We're always testing patterns, trying out color and texture combinations, and keeping our eyes and ears open to innovative suggestions. We collect a myriad of ways you can express yourself through fiber arts. That explains some of our new additions to the store: try beadwork or test your eye for embellishment with our extensive craftstock of handmade and interesting notions.
Knit, Purl, Exhale
Need some yarn therapy?... Stop in any day, and cozy up to our project table, which is always teeming with the latest designer patterns and projects still on needles (not to mention some of our "test runs" so we can try out new ideas and explain them to you). Give us a call with your questions, and don't hesitate to show off your latest fiber artwork. We can't wait to see what you've been up to -- and we always have plenty to share.
Shop, Find, Create!
Get Inspired! Settle in with a cup of tea and treat yourself to a shopping trip on our online store. Take your time browsing through our eclectic showcase of yarns, patterns, books, notions and embellishments. We are pleased to have your company.
