Álainn Yarns was born from wanderlust. Stephanie created Álainn Yarns for travel loving crafters like her who want to enjoy high quality yarns, inspired by the colors of the world.
Álainn is Gaelic for beautiful and is pronounced as 'awl in'. It’s also a play on words as Stephanie is all in to yarn.

Color Inspiration from Stephanie:
Inferno Cone (Basalt): A rich Basalt color inspired by the Inferno Cone of the Craters of the Moon National Monument.
Sylvan Lake: This romantic colorway was inspired by a stunning sunset at Sylvan Lake in South Dakota.
Irish Blessing: A lovely combo of stone gray and a tonal green will instill the quietude of the Irish countryside.
Devil's Orchard: This deep earth toned colorway was inspired by the rugged landscape on the Devil’s Orchard Trail within Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve.
Land that Time Forgot: Land That Time Forgot is a rich brick red-orange, with subtle black splatters throughout.
Payatte Lake: A splash of cool teal inspired by Payette Lake in McCall, Idaho.
Summer's Last Embrace: The last show of trees clinging to their green leaves before embracing the autumnal change of colors inspired this colorway.
Garnet: January’s birthstone of deep red looks fantastic on this yarn base.
Amethyst Geode: This yarn shimmers with the stunning shade of purple.
