We've been immersed in this industry since 2015 when we wrote our business plan for our brick-and-mortar yarn shop. Through our shop we learned that owning a local yarn shop is incredibly rewarding...and challenging! We started dyeing Hand Dyed Diva yarn at the end of 2019, launched the brand on March 7, 2020, and decided in 2022 to pivot from brick-and-mortar retail and focus solely on Hand Dyed Diva - and now the diva is going WHOLESALE!
Here are the FAQs about our change to WHOLESALE:
WHEN ARE YOU GOING WHOLESALE?
As of September 1, 2023 we will sell only to businesses with current Sales and Use Tax Exemption Certificate numbers.
I HAVE A GIFT CARD! WHAT DO I DO?
Pick out yarn and use your gift card by August 31, 2023. We are also able to accept gift cards for custom dyed yarn and fiber orders (minimum of 3 skeins/bumps per order) thru the end of August. Delivery times will vary depending on our dye schedule and shipping.
WHY ARE YOU GOING WHOLESALE?
Dyeing yarn is a labor intensive process that doesn't leave much time for serving the public directly. And, yarn shops are such amazing, welcoming spaces in business for just that purpose - to welcome you! We've decided to focus our attention on dyeing so we can give the yarn shops and other industry businesses we serve the very best we have to offer - and they, in turn, can give YOU their best!
ARE YOU MAKING CHANGES TO YOUR BASES?
Some - like discontinuing yarn bases made outside the United States. That's because we are so passionate about USA raised and spun yarn, and USA raised and processed spinning fiber!
