Creating consciously crafted fibers and patterns is more than just our focus, it’s our passion. Ever since we started with a small herd of alpacas in a Minnesota backyard, we’ve been committed to making yarn in the best way possible to show off its natural beauty. While our exclusive offerings have grown beyond alpaca to include wool, organic cotton, and silk, our desire for exciting makers about natural fibers and knitting hasn’t changed one bit. It all winds back to the yarn, ensuring that every precious, handmade hank is lovingly filled with endless inspiration.

Blue Sky Fibers started as a pet project, of sorts. Shortly after graduating college, previous owner/founder Linda Niemeyer's curious preoccupation with alpacas led to her buying one. Soon Linda found herself with a lot of yarn on hand. She took it to a nearby yarn store, which was willing to buy and sell it. The rest, as they say, is history. Fast forward to 2023, Blue Sky Fibers, now owned by Malabrigo, is known worldwide for its consciously crafted collection of high-quality natural fibers and patterns.
