Skein Train's
StorySkein Train's home base is in the Four Corners area of New
Mexico. We have an "on the farm" shop, a trailer which we
take to small towns that do not have a yarn shop and our internet catalog. We also attend many of the fiber arts festivals, wool festivals and
arts & crafts shows within a reasonable driving distance of La Plata, New
Mexico. Please stop by and see us at these festivals,
there is nothing that compares to actually getting to touch the fibers you are thinking of
purchasing. Our online store is open 24/7 for your
shopping pleasure.
We have ready-to-spin fibers, handspun &
commercial yarns, kits, & finished products. Knitting and crochet accessories and
patterns. We are still in the process of building our inventory, so if there is something you
are looking for and you don't see it, please email us and we will try to locate and add it to
our inventory. Email Skein Train.
We very pleased to be carrying Brown Sheep
Company yarns. These incredible USA yarns are
beautiful, economical and great for weaving, knitting, crochet and needle
