Founded in 1878 in New York City, Lion Brand Yarn Company is a fifth-generation, family-owned and operated business. We are devoted to inspiring and educating knitters and crocheters around the world with quality yarns. Lion Brand offers a wide range of yarns in fibers from 100% cashmere to wool and wool blends to premium acrylics. Our website offers over 7,500 free patterns, how-tos, and ideas that elevate the yarn crafting experience.
Lion Brand yarns are sold online, in major brick and mortar retailers, and craft chains worldwide, as well as at lionbrand.com.
We have donated millions of dollars to various charities and have partnered with organizations like Warm Up America! and Project Linus, which provide hand knits to those in need.
Lion Brand’s spokesperson is Vanna White, America’s favorite crocheter. Through the sales of Vanna’s signature lines of yarn, we have donated over $1.9 million to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Lion Brand has an in-house design studio, video production team, and marketing department producing Lion Media, which reaches more knitters and crocheters every month than all top 10 knit and crochet publications. Our social media presence includes a Facebook page, YouTube channel (featuring 800+ videos), Instagram, and Pinterest, along with nearly 2 million subscribers to our weekly newsletter.
We're a Yarn company that started back in 2015. Our four founders wanted to supply yarn and free patterns to knitting and crocheting enthusiasts around the world, and that's what Hobbii has been committed to ever since.
From our 10.000m2 warehouse we shipped +1,5 million parcels last year to yarn lovers all over the globe and so far we've opened retail stores across Denmark and Germany. By building digital offerings from scratch we wanna continue to delight our lovely customers - and quietly revolutionise the industry.
Behind the scenes we’re a team of ca. 200 Hobsters enjoying the crazy journey 🚀. Working at this pace means everything feels possible, there is no legacy and every day offers a dose of dopamine for making an impact. Hobsters, you ask 🧝🏻♂️? We’re a bunch of playful and creative people who fundamentally feel that we’re better together. We put our hearts into the things we do and we believe that done is better than perfect.
We do all this from our office located in the Brooklyn of Copenhagen (yes NV💥). This is where we play, have breakfast, catered lunch, Friday bars, damn good coffee and great parties.
Working at Hobbii should be exciting, fun and meaningful. We have a dedicated People & Culture team that spend all their time making sure going to work doesn’t suck💆.
So, wanna join and see what the fuss is about?
