Sweaters & Knitted Accessories
From our first days in the yarn business back in the 1920s, National has been the premiere US sweater yarn resource.
Today we offer a broad range of products for flat and circular knitting. Our knowledge of domestic knit resources gives you the opportunity to learn not only about yarns but also about contract knitting and finishing resources.
