5 out of 5 starsFirst, I would just like to comment on the INCREDIBLE, above and BEYOND service that I received from Cinnabar Pink. In the midst of a global pandemic, the holidays, and through international shipping, Lynda was there, she was proactive, and she was positively LOVELY. I really cannot express my gratitude for her kindness and professionalism. I was able to get my very best friend the most perfect gift. We were both blown away by the contents of the gift box and the quality of the items. I am so thankful to Lynda for her persistence in making this happen for me. I will ABSOLUTELY recommend her to others and would 100% order again.

5 out of 5 starsBeautiful yarn and mini. My husband has already shown an interest in this one, which doesn’t happen very often so it will become socks for him.
Very well packaged and arrived quickly
Thank you x -

I love seeing how the yarn knits up..
I am so happy to share my hand-dyed yarn with you!
Hi, I'm Lynda, the dyer behind Cinnabar Pink. I rediscovered my love of knitting a few years ago and, once I found the wonderful world of hand-dyed yarn, there was no looking back. After dyeing yarn for my own knitting projects for a couple of years I decided to open my Etsy shop. The name Cinnabar Pink comes from my days as a History of Art student. I was writing an essay on portraiture and was struggling to describe the particular shade of a sitter's dusky pink gown. That shade was cinnabar, and the name has stuck with me ever since!
I absolutely love creating new colourways, and seem particularly drawn to dyeing tonal self-striping yarn. Inspiration strikes from so many places, often I see colour combinations in nature or in a work of art that I recreate in watercolour on paper before translating into dye and yarn. I never use my dyes as they come. For me the creativity, originality, and enjoyment comes from mixing the different colours, and working out the intensity of colour I need before dipping the bare yarn in the pot! To see the finished yarn knitted up is so satisfying, particularly with self-striping yarn (which knits itself really).
Follow me over on Instagram for shop update news, lots of knitting, and of course hand-dyed yarny adventures! Lynda x

I am happy to dye a custom order for you on request. I typically need around 10 days to create this as unfortunately dyeing yarn is not my day job! Send me a convo and let me know what you would like :0)
Is your merino yarn mulesing free?
Yes, my yarn suppliers do not stock yarn from producers who practice mulesing.
