House of A La Mode began as an artist-owned indie-dye yarn company that has grown into a full-service yarn shop.

Heather was born and raised in the Portland, Oregon area. Her first foray into crafting was sewing, which was an easy choice for relaxation while raising a child with autism. She published a book, Pillow Pop, and continues to dye fabric and create beautiful pieces.

In late 2014, Heather's craft world expanded when she began dyeing yarn in her home studio. Her unique eye for color and trends has made HoALM yarns an indie staple for over a decade. The first store to feature HoALM's stunning and coveted yarn was a popular LYS in SE Portland. There, Heather met lifelong fiber friends while continuing to grow her brand.

By 2020, House of A La Mode had expanded into a brick-and-mortar in Gresham, OR. After relocating the LYS to The Dalles, through the spectacular Columbia River Gorge, HoALM is now a must-see stop in Eastern Oregon. House of A La Mode is a welcoming and inclusive space for all levels of yarn crafts.
