KinfolkYarnandFibre

Dyeing, spinning, knitting and all things fibre are my passion, my raison d'être! I find endless fascination in the alchemy of dyeing and spinning, how the fibres and colours interact with each other and transform into something entirely new.

I aim to make products that you’ll enjoy using as much as I enjoyed creating. I dye with professional acid dyes and I only use materials that I like spinning and knitting with myself. Because my dyeing is a joyous, little bit of this, little bit of that process, even yarn and fibre dyed in the same batch can have slight variations. Each item is one of a kind. Handspun yarn, by its very nature, has slight inconsistencies; I think this is part of its charm.

I do my best to accurately describe and photograph items but your computer monitor may not display colours exactly the same way mine does.

All work is done in a non-smoking environment. I do however have a cat, who shares my interest in yarn. Once “finished”, all items are stored in sealed bags and boxes but please be aware that the occasional stray cat hair may make its way into yarn and fibre during production.

By the way, my spelling of the words “fibre” and “colour” is not a mistake – I’m Canadian, aye, and that is how we spell those words ☺
