Collection: Fantasy Fibers Yarn Company

Meet Marissa – the Creative Heart Behind Fantasy Fibers Yarn Co.

Marissa’s journey into the world of yarn is one filled with resilience, creativity, and a bit of serendipity. Growing up as the daughter of an interior designer, she was surrounded by color, balance, and thoughtful aesthetics from an early age. Though she always had a strong creative streak, she struggled to find the right outlet—traditional art forms like painting and pastels never quite clicked (and her stack of discarded projects could vouch for that!).

While pursuing her doctorate, Marissa was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that greatly affected her health. During long stretches at home recovering, she discovered knitting—and from that moment, everything changed. Yarn became her comfort and creative spark. 

That discovery lit a fire. After a year of knitting, Marissa picked up her first skein of hand-dyed yarn—and it was love at first stitch. She knew she had found her calling. Ideas for colorways and dyeing techniques started pouring in.

Through every skein, Marissa shares her story, her passion, and a touch of magic with the fiber community she’s so grateful to call home.
