One of the things that we love to do at our little hand-dyeing company is work with both yarn and spinning fibre. Since the beginning, we’ve offered the same colourway in both yarn bases as well as spinning fibre and I personally love the infinite variety of results you can get from working with one or the other. I love that the yarn spun from spinning fibre dyed in a certain colourway can look so incredibly different from yarn that is dyed with that same colourway.

In the special issue of Spin Off: Spin and Knit!, our yarn and fibre are featured along with four other hand-dyeing companies. Check out this special issue, starting October 25!
