Yin and Yarn
With Anja
Welcome to my beautiful world of wool, knitting, patterns and all things yin. On this page you find how I weave my passion for wool with my Finnish roots, yoga and slow living.
This venture started a long time ago but officially launched at Wonderwool Wales 2023 at the end of April. My online shop launches on 5 May 2023!
Yin and Yarn Ethos
Here at Yin and Yarn our main ethos is around sustainability and supporting other small businesses. All patterns are designed in Wales by me, Anja (you can read more about me and my background on the ‘about’ page). In addition I support other local small businesses by using them as suppliers for wool and other items. To me this is very important and I believe the way forward to support creating a sustainable community. I have passion for hand knitting and teaching this craft to others. You can find my list of workshops on this page soon.
I am also very passionate about sustainability and environmetal matters. My background in environmental sciences and sustainability give me the knowledge in exploring the better alternative in terms of sustainability. This can sometimes be challenging and require thorough research into all aspects of sustinability from social and economical to ecological sustainability. We can’t do everything but doing our little bit makes a big difference.
