ABOUT WOOLN

WOOLN brings together caring and talented New York grandmothers with people who want to know where their dream knits come from and who made them

All WOOLN accessories are lovingly hand-knitted by talented New York grandmothers using socially responsible yarn. We want to provide you with an individual and unique item you will love wearing!

WOOLN strives to act for the benefit of society at large : we welcome retirees back into the active work force, value forgotten talents, and foster intergenerational exchanges. A few of our knitters are younger New Yorkers, who knit to supplement their income and who enjoy being part of WOOLN. We also promote a new way of shopping, making the act of buying a more personal and considered experience.

We source two types of yarn:

- 100% American wool for most of our Men’s and Women’s collection. This wool is from sheep raised here in the USA and then carefully spun and dyed in a family owned and operated spinning mill in Nebraska.

- All of our Baby and Children’s collection and some of our Women’s and Men’s items are made from a super soft Alpaca yarn. Alpaca fleece is a lustrous, silky, and hypoallergenic natural fiber making it the perfect yarn for children. We partner with a socially responsible company and work with artisans in Bolivia and Peru.
