Tucked away in the heart of Norwich, our tea room and yarn shop is a warm, welcoming space where good tea (or coffee), beautiful yarn, and a lifelong love of craft come together. Founded and owned by Karen, a passionate knitter and crocheter with decades of experience, Yarn in a Teacup is built on care, creativity, and community. Whether you’re popping in for a quiet cup of tea and slice of homemade cake, or hunting for the perfect ball of yarn for your next project, you’ll find a relaxed atmosphere where everyone is welcome.

We’re proud to be a female-owned, independent business with a strong belief in shopping small and supporting local traders. Every visit and every purchase helps sustain traditional crafts, local creativity, and a small business driven by passion. Our shelves are stocked with quality knitting and crochet yarns, and our tea room offers a cosy place to sit, stitch, chat, or simply enjoy a moment of calm.

From quality knitting and crochet yarns to a comforting tea room where ideas (and stitches) flow freely, we’re here to offer something a little more personal than the high street. Slow down, browse, chat, and enjoy a space made with love and care, right here in Norwich.

You’ll find us conveniently located on 2a Sprowston road, Norwich, NR3 4QN

Beyond shopping and tea, we’re also a hub for the local crafting community. We host regular events, including knitting and crochet groups, relaxed stitch-and-chat sessions, and occasional workshops for beginners and experienced makers alike. These events are all about connection, learning, and enjoying the shared joy of making something with your hands. Be sure to check out our Events page for more details.

Whether you’re a lifelong knitter, a curious beginner, or someone who just loves a good cup of tea in a welcoming space, you’re always welcome.

Support small, support local, and enjoy something made with love.
