Fine Yarns in Exceptional Colors

 

We are updating pictures so that you can see  a better representation of what we have ~ 

Colors listed are a starting point. We have many colors that are not listed. Sometimes I have an idea what color way I want to create and sometimes I let the colors take me where they want to go.  I experiment, I play! I have old favorites that are always in demand and new colors that keep it fun and interesting for me and you.  All yarns are dyed by one person ~  I consider each batch unique. I do not have formulas!! I like to think this is an art ~ not suitable for mass production. Inspiration comes from many sources, both internal and external. If you need help with choosing colors, please feel free to call. I hope you can visit us in Maine or at a show to see so much more!

We don't have color cards.
