At Tribe our job is to bring you the loveliest, most inspiring yarns and accessories available, and to create a welcoming, informative, fun space for you to browse and buy, whether in our retail shop in stunning Richmond-upon-Thames, or through our online store.  It’s not an unpleasant job.

We are on a mission to get the world “making” again.
Create, not consume.

We truly believe that “making” is at our cores as human beings.

"Making is the most powerful way that we solve problems, express ideas and shape our world. What and how we make defines who we are, and communicates who we want to be.

"For many people, making is critical for survival. For others, it is a chosen vocation: a way of thinking, inventing and innovating. And for some it is simply a delight to be able to shape a material and say 'I made that'. The power of making is that it fulfills each of these human needs and desires." Daniel Charny, guest curator Victoria & Albert Museum, London

And, coz, damn, it feels good!  Let’s create, unplug, connect with each other and get back to the little things that make us happy. (Like sniffing yarn ...just me??)

We have put extra special care into selecting the fibres and materials that will give you the most intense pleasure in the priceless minutes you choose to spend with your yarn and yourself.  It's our obsession.

If there are any yarns or products which you think that we absolutely MUST make space for on our shelves, please do let us know.  We are big feedback fans, and there are hugs in it for you. Follow Tribe Yarns.
