Dear Friends,
We're reaching out today with important news—and hearts filled with gratitude.
Beginning in June 2025, Brooklyn Tweed will return to its roots as a pattern-only design company, transitioning out of yarn manufacturing. This decision was not easy, nor driven by any lack of viability: BT yarns remain beloved and vibrant, thanks to your incredible support.
Instead, we're following our personal creative paths, seeking space to explore new ideas while honoring the spirit of what we've built together over the past 20 years.
This change marks not an ending, but the next step in our ongoing journey. We're eager to learn, grow, and explore new creative avenues. Soon, we'll launch an updated website showcasing our extensive library of over 800 original patterns—an inspiring platform for both past and future projects. Our celebrated designs will continue to be available, and we look forward to sharing even more creative work with you in the years to come.
We're not going anywhere—this is simply the start of a new chapter.
Producing yarn in the U.S. has been profoundly rewarding and challenging. We've been incredibly fortunate to pursue our passion for quality and craftsmanship, thanks entirely to your support. Together, we've cultivated a community centered around beautiful American wool, thoughtful design, and the timeless art of knitting. Each skein and pattern we’ve created reflects our dedication to care, creativity, and purpose.
The final months of Brooklyn Tweed yarn production will be a celebration, honoring the yarns that have accompanied your creative journey. Complete your projects, stock your collections, and cherish these final yards along with us.
Our commitment to providing meticulously crafted, inspiring patterns remains stronger than ever. Brooklyn Tweed will continue to offer the exceptional quality and innovative design you’ve come to expect. Raising the standard for knitters everywhere has always been—and will remain—central to our mission.
We understand this news may feel bittersweet. Like all beautiful experiences, this chapter is fleeting, but the spirit of BT endures.
On behalf of our entire team, thank you for your trust, creativity, and unwavering support. You, our cherished knitting community, are truly the heart and soul of Brooklyn Tweed.
Join us in celebrating these remarkable yarns—collect, create, and treasure this moment. We look forward to continuing our shared journey with you. Keep in touch, and we’ll do the same!
With deepest gratitude,
Jared Flood & Luigi Boccia
Founders/Co-Owners

Your announcement about the next chapter of BT is indeed bittersweet, and so thoughtfully shared with this community. <3 <3 I will continue to follow you as your BT journey unfolds, I believe in you and BT, thank you so much.
Soooo sad to hear the news about my favorite yarn! But thrilled to hear that Brooklyn Tweed will continue on! Your Vogue Knitting Magazine cover of those Green Mittens years ago inspired me beyond measure! I may just get some green yarn to make them! I haven’t done that yet! Your talent is much appreciated and I love all things about your company! Thank you for everything with the yarn production and excited for the next chapter!
Jared and Luigi, you made us proud with your commitment to produce high quality American yarn. We will miss your contributions but happy we will still be able to enjoy your patterns.
I learned how to knit reading your blog, Shelter and Loft were some of my earliest treasured yarn purchases. Knitting has been with me through divorce, travels, college classes, the rearing of young children- it is core to my life, and your work is a part of that. Thank you🧡
Sorry to hear this news! Good luck on next chapter
