Welcome to Bloomsbury Trading which has evolved as a result of a worldwide search for beautiful yarns
and knitting accessories. The outcome of this comprehensive search has been the formation of “Bloomsbury Trading” supplying retailers with the highest quality fashion and classic wholesale yarns.
Bloomsbury is still a young company, but we now have a beautiful selection of high quality wholesale yarns, buttons and accessories to offer. You will find everything from Merino to Cashmere, Silk to Alpaca, Fancy to Classic Yarns, Laceweight to Chunky - there's something for everyone.
Trendsetter and Lane Borgosesia yarns from the USA were the first to be featured at Bloomsbury, along with Feza hand-tied yarns from Turkey, which continue to be very popular with textile artists, embroiderers and knitters for embellishment.
Recognising the demands of knitters in the UK, Bloomsbury's aim is to bring retailers a collection of yarns that are sought after, but not readily available in the UK whilst also catering to differing tastes and prices.
We will continue to source beautiful new products for retailers and are committed to offering our retailers a professional, reliable and friendly service.
Bloomsbury was delighted to be appointed the sole UK distributor for "Trendsetter Yarns" from the USA in January 2006. Trendsetter celebrated 17 years at the design forefront of innovative fashion yarns in November 2005.
Barry Klein, the founder and President of Trendsetter Yarns, has been voted one of the most influential men in world knitting of all time. His dedication to supplying yarns in an amazing array of texture, fibre and colour combinations takes him regularly around the world where he then carefully selects and designs a new yarn combination.
Feza has been established for 48 years producing knitting yarns. Their latest collection includes three hand-tied yarns feauturing multi-tied and multi-textured skeins of 210 yards in length. The three yarns Bloomsbury are importing are Alp, Premier and Dazzle.
There are some fabulous possibilities in design terms with these yarns and they are great fun too. Sophisticated colour combinations and something completely different for the UK. We stock all Feza yarns available to order right away. Please check out the full range here.
