WELCOME TO PURPLE SPROUTING
Welcome to our independent yarn shop nestled in the heart of Ōamaru, New Zealand. Here you'll find Paula's hand-dyed yarns, created with care in home studio and brought to the shop to share their colour and character with makers near and far. Every skein is a labour of love, drawing inspiration from the vibrant hues of everyday life.
Alongside our signature hand-dyed yarns, we stock a curated selection of commercial yarns, tools and accessories to support your knitting and crochet adventures. From Miss Muffet's Knits ceramic buttons to ChiaoGoo needles and other favourites, everything on our shelves is chosen with thought and purpose.
Whether you're visiting in person or browsing online, we're so glad you've found your way here. Settle in and enjoy exploring.
