Outlaw Yarn Home of New Zealand's most wanted yarn. Visit our boutique dye house. New Zealanders are recognised worldwide for their pioneering spirit and sense of adventure.

When you live in a country famous for it's wool industry it would be criminal not to take advantage of the wealth of stunning fibre on your doorstep. Outlaw is a new brand of luxury yarn from New Zealand, the country where the sheep outnumber people. Proudly made in two of the last remaining spinning mills in operation, Outlaw Yarn is committed to keeping yarn production local. This legacy continues in the Outlaw spirit as each of our colour ranges is themed to create visual stories inspired by the creative leaders of the world, past and present. The artists and explorers who challenge the status quo with daring visions of a new world are celebrated by carefully chosen palettes of colours to inspire crafters to create their own masterpieces. Why the magpie? Because they are collectors of the beautiful and the interesting. Visit us in person at Outlaw Yarn HQ, 22 Stanley Street, Sydenham, Christchurch, New Zealand.
