The History of Yarnplaza.com

"From a hobby that got out of hand to the largest online store for wool and yarn in the Netherlands"

For Petra, the owner, Yarnplaza started as a hobby. In 2011, she started tinkering with an online store in the back of her shop for crochet, knitting, and DIY fashion in Zaltbommel. Within three years, Yarnplaza had grown into the largest online store for crochet and knitting. Yarnplaza is a true family business; her son Koen has since joined the team and, with great enthusiasm, has taken over day-to-day management to continue building on his mother’s success story.

Yarnplaza.com stands for customer-friendliness, quality, and Inspiration. We strive to be the most customer-friendly online store in the world of crocheting and knitting. Quality is our top priority: premium brands at the best prices, fast delivery, and, of course, our “money-back guarantee.” Do you have questions about the products you ordered? Our expert Customer Service team is happy to help! We also want to inspire our customers and keep surprising them. Every day, we work with the utmost care on new projects and Inspiration just for you. Through our Newsletters, blogs, social media channels, the Yarnplaza Academy, and the Designers Master Club, we’ll keep you up to date on all the latest news and trends, share handy tips and tricks, and help you become part of a vibrant crafting community. We guarantee you’ll find great ideas for new projects here!
