Our Yarns
We are passionate about dyeing high quality yarn bases in a range of animal fibres from merino to silk and cashmere, sock yarns and British fibres. Our colourways cover the whole spectrum and are inspired by the world around us, events and our imagination.
We are based in Newbury, Berkshire in the UK, but ship yarn worldwide.
If you are based in the EU our website is set up to collect your local VAT and submit it for you on all orders under €135 so your parcel does not get stopped by customs and there are no further charges to pay. We are also fully compliant with the EU GPSR regulations and can provide our EU Rep's address on request and it is included in all EU orders.
If you are outside the UK or EU then the prices on our website will be adjusted to remove the 20% VAT when you put your address in.
Please visit our store to see the full range.
