Best yarn shops in Melbourne (and beyond)

Categories: Crocheting

Melbourne is brimming full of creativity (and excellent coffee) and it’s my favourite Australian city! I love jumping on the tram and discovering different parts of the city. My top tip is to make sure you’ve got your Melbourne Snood with you – they’re not joking when they say there are 4 season in a day.

 

If you’re planning a trip to Melbourne then you must visit these yarn shops:

Sunspun has a great range of natural fibre yarns and the shop window is always inspiring!

There are some fabulous yarny places to visit just outside Melbourne too:

Great Ocean Road Woollen Mill in Ballarat is open on Saturdays (and I highly recommend popping into the Collin Bookshop on Lydiard too).

 

Tarndwarncoort have a wool shop on a sheep farm!

 

Bendigo Woollen Mills have an affordable range of yarns that are partially made in Australia.

Lynda | Homelea Lass

Hi! I’m Lynda (she/her) and I’m the lady behind Homelea Lass.

I’m here to help you improve your crochet skills and to help you find peace and happiness in your creative time.

In 2012 I was knocked down by debilitating chronic fatigue that put an end to my blossoming career as a Civil Engineer and Project Manager.

Early on in my illness, I discovered that I could crochet without draining my energy, so I spent my days crocheting, researching yarns and designing – this is how Homelea Lass was born.

My experience with chronic illness has guided me to combine my passion for exceptional design and crochet. I’ve developed a way of crocheting that’s enjoyable, easy to understand, and maximises it’s relaxing and wellbeing properties.

As my healing journey has progressed, Homelea Lass has grown, and I feel blessed that I can share my love of Australian merino wool, chunky crochet and creativity with you.
