River Knits is a UK‑based indie yarn brand founded by knitters and crocheters Becci and Markus, born from a passion for colour, creativity, and sustainable craft. The brand’s tagline — hand dyed colour – adventure in the making — reflects its mission to offer beautifully hand‑dyed British yarns that make every stitch feel like part of a creative journey, not just a finished object.

River Knits sources and dyes 100 % natural fibres grown, spun, and dyed in the UK, combining traditional British wool breeds with original dyeing techniques to deliver reliable, repeatable colourways that inspire makers of all levels. Sustainability and community are at the heart of the brand, with eco‑conscious materials and collaborative relationships with local flocks, designers, and yarn shops. From its beginnings hand dyeing on a narrowboat to its current studio near the Grand Union Canal in Weedon Bec, Northamptonshire, River Knits continues to celebrate creative expression, environmental mindfulness, and the joy of making.
