I'm selling off a load of ready mordanted yarns which are prepared for natural dyeing. Most are mordanted in alum which vastly improves the results with natural dyes, giving brighter more long lasting colours. These are available at discounted prices so are a fantastic deal.

Use kitchen leftovers such as onion skins or avocado peel and you will get some interesting results! Also flowers e.g. marigolds and dahlias will give good colours.

They are on my Etsy shop and in the workshop, see link in bio to buy.

Another treat for you...I'm clearing out a lot of ready mordanted yarns which are prepared for natural dyeing. Most have been mordanted with alum for brighter colours and better colourfastness. There is a wide choice of different types to choose from.

You can use items from your kitchen such as onion skins and avocado peel, or flowers such as marigolds and dahlias to achieve lovely colours. Check out the link to my Etsy shop below πŸ‘‡

Grab yourself a bargain and get inspiration for your next knitting or crochet project. In the workshop and on Etsy, these yarn bundles are available in 4 ply, DK and aran packs varying from 120g to 500g. They are at least half the usual price, I'm having a clear out as I will be moving out of the workshop in June.

I will be carrying on from my new home based workshop once things are sorted.

Hellooo!! After an extended period of hibernation I'm back in the land of the living. A series of life events forced me to take a break. My website is no longer online but I have just reopened my Etsy shop Colourworkscreations where you will find my knitted merino hats. More stock will be added soon.

Wishing everyone a very happy New Year πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‡

This year I will be making some changes to the business. The website is going offline for a while from 3rd January while I take a rest and step back. 2025 was challenging for both personal and business reasons, with the Christmas season being underwhelming to say the least. I would like to thank all of my customers and followers for their support and will post updates when I've had some much needed 'R & R'.

When you've had to come up with so many colour names and the inspiration has gone...oh well, it's Just bloomin Green! On the plus side, lots of lovely (imaginatively named) colours of naturally dyed yarns will be for sale this weekend - at Meet the Makers market this Saturday in St Nics Arcade, and Sunday as part of King Street Christmas Market at my workshop in the Covered Yard. Joining me will be Diane Hinson of Fool Moon with her lovely cards, prints and jewellery.
