Joann fans are a big update to know about

  • Michaels purchased Joann’s intellectual property and private label brands and Gabys products from the current Joann stores closed.

  • This includes the popular Joann Big Twist yarn, a cult favorite product.

  • It is part of a high expansion sewing supplies and concepts at the craft store.


If you are something like me, the news that Joann is closing was a devastating blow. I spent hundreds of hours in Joann’s aisles and, although I was provided with Exing Out Business sales, I will spend shopping there.

Joann’s final places have just closed the door in late May. However, the surprising hero steps to save some of the cult products from the grave.

Michaels stores have just announced they purchased Joann’s intellectual property and private label brands; The Joann.com site now automatically directs the Michaels website that reads: “Welcome to Michaels, Joann fans! It’s hard to lose your favorite store. We’re here to help.”

Michaels stores gifted with selected Joann BrandsExpand your supply in threads, sewing supplies and sewing concepts with more than 600 new items. This step is the greater extension of Michaels to sewing supplies and fabrics. The chain did not acquire physical stores where Joann used Joann, but Michaels will offer several bestsellers Joann.

What is the biggest Joann product that is saved? IT is the cult of the cult of the great big twist that is popular among budget artisans (Not to mention my “go-to-to” brand). Big Twist is loved because it has many different colors and is a selection of cheap hobbies that can quickly make expensive. ($ 5 for a yarn strand doesn’t seem like a big thing until you need 6 different colors – and don’t start me starting with yarn during the project!)

Big Twist yarn is noticeably softer and nicer to work than other inexpensive acrylic yarn brands that can be scratched. But I will admit that I am biased – I sit on my desk when I write are the pads I made from the Big Twist yarn.

Without my personal excitement (and good news for craftsmen!), This is a big deal for the other two reasons.

This is a great extension of Michaels products.

Michaels moves. They recently announced the 200% expansion of their party’s supplies, trying to fill the hole left by the closure of Party City. They are now expanding their yarn and sewing supplies to help eliminate the gap left by Joann.

According to a press release, Search Search has been 39%increased by Michaels.com since last year. Their extended offers containing 600 new products will include sewing machines, threads, interfaces, fights, special scissors, sewing ideas and more for both beginners and tailors. They also expand their assortment of yarn 25%to help feed the crochet masters trend by ensuring a well -equipped yarn passage for fiber art fans.

It is a drama of niche yarn.

Big Twist was the Joann’s House brand yarn. This is a bold step when Michaels has a big turn because already Michaels have to Home brand yarn called loops and threads. The big turn and loops and threads were direct competitors in the budget yarn space. It seems that if Walmart has started selling target brands, this is a definite surprise if you care about the cheap yarn niche world, that is.

In my opinion, Big Twist is of better quality. In courtesy, loops and threads do not have a cult favorite product after a big turn. When Michaels struck Big Twist to become distribution again, the Big Twist seems to win this phase of yarn battle, and artisans win by fundamentally by expanding Michaels’ products.
