The Dickson Family has always been involved with the textile industry in one way or another. Kerry Dickson has been in the industry for over 30 years. With his son, Aaron, following in his footsteps having been in the industry for over 10 years. It was not until about 8 years ago, when they were in Paris for a Textile Machinery Exhibition, that they came across a little village. There they discovered a Frenchman making unusual yarns, these yarns were very exotic and nothing like anything they'd seen in Australia. This was the beginning of Yarn Barn. The number of Textile Manufacturers has rapidly declined in Australia, giving little opportunity for the craftsperson to obtain supplies in small amounts. Aaron saw an opportunity to service this market. As this developed, enquires started to flow in from a wide variety of people: from Crochet to Hand Weavers to Felt Makers to Machine Knitters where they found it hard to find their supplies at a reasonable price. This lead to a new range of products that Yarn Barn offered to its customers. As the Textile Industry in Australia battles to keep up with the highly productive Asian countries, sourcing quality fine-knitting products within Australia becomes harder and more expensive. At Yarn Barn we endeavor to overcome this problem by offering you, our valued customer, an extensive range and affordable product. Yarn Barn imports, manufactures and sources the widest range of textile products from fine lurexs, silk, wool tops, Machine Knitting and Hand Knitting yarn in Australia.
