What are some good places to purchase yarn online?

I have only bought yarn online from JoAnn but I would like to get my hands on some of the handmade stuff I see on Etsy.

Someone suggested this site to me today: Knit Picks

And I'll post more online stores as I come across them...

My friends and I just made a huge group purchase at Knit Picks. Everything was on sale whee

I like the Lion Brand site. And if you want luxury yarn... Purl Soho is gorgeous. I so want to go there sometime.

I'm a big proponent of Etsy (already linked upthread), and that's not just because I'm a seller. I've been a buyer for a while now, and I have never been disappointed with an item I've purchased there. And I love how so many of the items available there are one-of-a-kind. If you want a list of sellers I like, I can gladly provide. :3

I had a pretty good experience with Yarnzilla when I bought from them a year or two back. Knitpicks has been good to me, too. I love my Harmony needle set. I haven't gotten around to trying the yarn I bought yet. Too many projects.

I also like the independent crafters who have their own sites. I've been a big fan of Hello Yarn since I bought my spindle kit from her. It's really hard to get her items when she updates, though. Very popular now.

Sunshine Yarns just moved to her own site. I really love the colors she produces, even if the one yarn I bought from her tended to pool every time I tried a project with it (but I haven't given up hope yet!). I've been eyeing up the semisolids for a while, but I am so overflowing with yarn, especially sock yarn.

Believe it or not, I get lots of yarn on ebay, and usually for a good price.

patternworks has some good yarn, for good prices. So does Mary Maxim. I got some nifty yarn from them for a good price.

I like the yarn from Knitpicks. It is a nice yarn for a reasonable amount. Another place that I have been looking at is Webs. I would like to get some spinning fiber from there when I start spinning.
