Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Xander — founder of Xander’s Cottage.

My journey into the fiber arts began in my mid-20s, when friends started asking me to knit custom pieces. That curiosity led me to spinning my own yarn… and before I knew it, I had fallen deep into the fiber world. What started as a passion quickly grew into something more — and today, I’m proud to run a small business dedicated to hand-spun, high-quality, and affordable yarns.

Crafting Should Be for Everyone

In a world where everything feels a bit more expensive, I believe that creativity shouldn’t be out of reach. Everyone deserves the joy and comfort that crafting brings, no matter their budget. That’s why affordability is a core value here at Xander’s Cottage — because crafting should be accessible, not stressful.

Flexible Payment Options

We understand that budgets can be tight. That’s why we’re proud to offer flexible layaway plans to help make your fiber dreams a reality. Whether it’s weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly payments — you set the pace that works for you.

And please — never feel uncomfortable asking for a payment plan. We're always happy to reserve your fiber and hold your order until it’s fully paid. Supporting your creativity is what we’re here for.

At Xander’s Cottage, we’re more than just a yarn shop — we’re a community. And we can’t wait to be part of your fiber journey.
