🧶Baltimore’s Colorful Secret: A Day at Neighborhood Fiber Co.🧵

May 22, 2025•3 min read

If you’re a fiber enthusiast, color junkie, or just someone who’s been low-key curious about yarn (no judgment here!), then Neighborhood Fiber Co. is about to become your new obsession. Tucked right in the heart of Baltimore’s Midtown-Edmondson area at 700 N Eutaw St, MD 21201—just a hop, skip, and a yarn ball away from the action—this place is serving serious color, creativity, and community vibes.

šŸŽØ A Splash of Color in Every Skein

Let’s just say this ain’t your grandma’s knitting store. Walk into Neighborhood Fiber Co. and you’re immediately hit with a rainbow wall of hand-dyed yarns—each skein more vibrant than the last. We're talking rich jewel tones, dreamy pastels, moody neutrals... You name it. Every colorway has a story, often named after Baltimore neighborhoods like Roland Park or Station North. It's local love, wrapped in Merino wool.

šŸ‘‰ Why it’s special:

  • Hand-dyed in small batches right in Baltimore

  • Ethically sourced wool and sustainable practices

  • Colorways inspired by the city’s architecture, neighborhoods, and spirit

And yes, touching is encouraged. Trust me, you’ll want to pet this yarn.

šŸ‘©ā€šŸŽØ Meet the Genius Behind the Dye Pots

The magic all comes from founder Karida Collins, a total powerhouse in the fiber world. She started dyeing yarn in her basement in Washington, D.C., and built this brand from the ground up. Now, her studio is one of the most well-known indie dye companies in the U.S.

Even cooler? Karida’s on a mission. She’s a fierce advocate for diversity and inclusion in the fiber arts, and she co-founded the Organizing for Anti-Racism initiative, pushing for real change in the crafting community.

🧵 Workshops, Events & Yarny Shenanigans 🧘

If you think you’ve gotta be a master knitter to show up here, think again. Neighborhood Fiber Co. hosts a ton of events that welcome beginners, pros, and everyone in between. Keep an eye out for:

  • Dyeing Workshops – Learn to mix up your fiber rainbow

  • Knit Nights – Chill evenings with local makers

  • Mindful Making Meetups – Stitch and decompress

Not ready to commit to a full-on project? No worries. They also sell DIY kits, hand-dyed embroidery floss, and weaving supplies. It’s fiber paradise.

šŸŒ‡ What’s Nearby? Make It a Day Out

Neighborhood Fiber Co. is just around the corner from some of Baltimore’s coolest spots. After you snag a few skeins, go explore:

  • Lexington Market – One of the oldest public markets in America (hello, crab cakes)

  • The Eubie Blake Cultural Center – Art, jazz, and history in a stunning space

  • Mount Vernon – The architecture! The art museums! The vibes!

  • Station North Arts District – Murals, galleries, indie film nights... It’s artsy heaven

Need some fresh air? Head over to Druid Hill Park, just a 5-minute drive west. Stretch your legs, then get back to your yarn.

šŸ“… Pro Tips Before You Visit

  • Check their website or Instagram for class schedules and pop-ups

  • Street parking is available, but it’s city-style—bring quarters or download the app

  • Most purchases support community projects and nonprofit efforts

Neighborhood Fiber Co. isn’t just a store—it’s a movement, a creative sanctuary, and a love letter to Baltimore. Whether you're crafting a sweater, learning to weave, or just want to be inspired, this spot is worth the trip.
