About the magazine & publisher

YarnMaker is a British magazine for handspinners, edited and published by Dorothy Lumb. The first edition was published in August 2010 and the final edition in December 2016.

Dorothy writes: I am a handspinner, dyer and weaver, and also enjoy knitting and crochet. I keep in touch with other spinners through local guilds and spinning groups, as well as Ravelry, and membership of the Online Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. I had been a spinner for 5 years when someone mentioned the need for a British based magazine and I responded by starting YarnMaker.

This website is maintained as a record of the publications and a resource for handspinners.
