The Future of Joann | What You NEED to Know in 2025

Big news in the craft world—Joann has officially filed for bankruptcy…. again. As crocheters, this could have a real impact on where we buy our yarn, what’s available, and even the future of big-box craft stores. But what does this actually mean for us? Are stores closing? Will prices change? And most importantly—what’s happening right now at Joann? I’ve been doing my own research to see what’s happening and I’m also heading to my local Joann to see for myself. I’ll be checking out the yarn section, looking for clearance deals, and seeing if anything feels different. So grab your hooks, and let’s go see what’s happening!
