Celebrating Our Journey: Brooklyn Tweed’s Next Chapter
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. Starting today, all remaining skeins of Brooklyn Tweed yarn are available in our online store—if there's something you've had your eye on, now's the moment. At the end of this month, we'll launch a Farewell Sale featuring all remaining skeins from our final production runs, continuing through June or while our supply lasts. This gives you ample time to complete your projects, stock your collections, and cherish these final yards.
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

Your yarn and designs have made a huge mark on the knitwear design world. I’ve interrupted my designs due to injury, but rehabilitating with some easy designs of my own and one of yours, “Little Wave”by Gudrun Johnston, a designer’s designer. Best of luck in your next chapter. Your yarns will be missed!

I am so sad but yet rejoice in what your future holds for you both. Love your patterns. Change is not always an easy process but it does give us something to look forward. I will so miss your yarns with the tariffs going on now its so important to support our yarn being made in America. Is anyone picking up your yarn making if so would love to support them. Best of good will to your next endeavor.

Congratulations and best of luck to you! Super saddened by the news of you eliminating your yarn line, it is completely enjoyable to work with and I’ve enjoyed the sustainability and the level of detail you offer in an all American product. Thank you for the tremendous amount of work and pride you put into your work!!

Seriously sad news in a way, but how BT has enriched the lives of knitters with such wonderful yarns and patterns through the years! There is a lot that I could say about quality, charity, generosity, and eyes toward the greater good that have always resounded throughout BT’s contributions, and I am sure that will continue. Very best wishes as you go forward into this new chapter, and thanks for the wonderful contributions to and through fiber arts you have already made and, I’m sure, will continue to make. We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on your patterns!! Will be interested in your yarn recommendations for new patterns, thanks.
