Stock Yarns: Let’s Clarify Things (Once and for All)

Lately, we’ve been receiving a large number of inquiries that highlight one simple issue: very often the information is there, but it is either not read carefully or misunderstood.
For this reason, we decided to write this article—to explain clearly and transparently what we do when we talk about selling stock yarns, and how to correctly interpret what you find on our website.

What “stock yarns” really mean

We purchase and resell warehouse leftovers coming from:

• knitwear manufacturers

• spinning mills

• industrial auctions

These are original yarns, created for professional production, which are no longer used due to end-of-collection, article changes, overstock, or commercial decisions.

👉 They are not yarns produced on demand
👉 They are not continuous or repeatable articles

This is a fundamental point to understand.

Quantities are often limited (sometimes very small)

Another key characteristic of stock yarns is limited availability.

Very often we are dealing with:

• one single cone

• two cones

• small lots only

This is absolutely normal.
If you are looking for color continuity or future reorders, stock yarns are not the right solution.
If instead you are looking for industrial-quality yarns at advantageous prices, then stock yarns represent a real opportunity.

Product photos on our website

The photos you see on our website are not casual or approximate.

• they are taken professionally

• using natural light or studio lighting

• with lighting set at 5500 Kelvin

• and white balance calibrated at 5500K

This allows us to achieve a neutral and technically correct color rendering, the best possible from a photographic standpoint.

📸 In other words:
the photographic starting point is calibrated 100% to the actual yarn colors.

Why colors may look different on your screen

Despite all of this, colors may still appear different on your screen compared to reality.

The reason is simple:

• every monitor has a different calibration

• brightness, contrast, and color temperature vary

• smartphones, tablets, and computers display colors differently

For this reason, we strongly recommend relying on the color name, which is the only objective and shared reference, in order to avoid misunderstandings or color incompatibilities when placing orders.

Purchasing as a company? You can register

If you are a company or professional with a VAT number, you can register on our website and access reserved pricing.

Registration allows you to purchase directly as an industry professional, under dedicated conditions.

Selling stock yarns means:

• offering real opportunities, not promises

• working with limited quantities

• valuing high-quality industrial yarns

• being transparent about availability and presentation

When these principles are clearly understood, stock yarns become a valuable resource.
If, on the other hand, you are looking for the guarantees of made-to-order production, it’s important to know this before purchasing.
