I took advantage of the buy 2 get 1 free sale in a BIG WAY. Sam was concerned that maybe my credit card information had been compromised, and he contacted me to doublecheck that I had indeed purchased that much yarn. - This goes well beyond customer service!

Wonderful yarn, excellent service and prompt delivery, beautifully packaged. My one slight niggle would be that I didn't find it easy to visualise what I was getting from the photo on the website. I was expecting a blend including dark green which turned out to be blue.

A kaleidoscope of hand dyed yarn awaits

Colinette and myself (her son) welcome all knitters, textile creators, and lovers of fabulously coloured fibres.  We wish to invite you on an exploration of our scrumptious hand dyed yarns. Colinette Yarns has been hand dyed yarn specialists for nearly 40 years now and just like the very first days on our kitchen stove, we still follow my father’s book of spells and incantations. He was a true artist who craved colour. Each skein of yarn from wool to cotton is dyed in small pasta pots, a nod to our times in Italy. I could tell you so much and will do, but for now sit back and enjoy our world of stunning colours. Created by us artists for artists… yes that is you.

Very pleased with the lovely box of goodies that arrived. Excellent service and product. The wool chosen hopefully will become a woven top or jacket at some point in the future. Thank you Colinette for the choice of yarns available.

Such gorgeous yarns, so glad you started producing them again! Toughest decision is selecting which ones to buy and knit into what...Can one have too many throws? Many thanks for your help, swift dispatch and beautifully wrapped packages of yummy skeins.

Your yarn is absolutely gorgeous. However, the wool I ordered was not the colour I received. I emailed your customer service and was told to send it back. I did so and some days later the correct colour was sent to me. But, and this does matter, at no point did the person apologise to me or acknowledge the hassle and time spent for me having to return the wrong wool. When I received a new email with a tracking number from the delivery service, I had no idea what was happening, I just guessed it was the correct colour being sent. So I emailed the office to ask if this was the case: no reply.
I work with the public, and the easiest most effective thing one can do is be polite and keep people informed. I felt somewhat disappointed on both these scores.

Vibrancy, Love, Passion, Yarn, Wool and Fibre

The purity and intense bursts of colour that we paint onto our hand dyed yarns are straight from the playbook of artists like Turner, Monet and Giotto. We blend shades from primary colours just as the masters have done down through the ages.

colinette's Journey

The road that led Colinette to play with hand painted yarn
and fibre started out many years ago. There was something very tactile about
super chunky wool that embraced the jewel- like colours. I called this slub yarn
‘Point Five’ and it became Colinette Yarns’ signature dish.

Other fibres followed. Silks, textured chenille, soft mohair
and finer sock wool to name but a few. All waiting to be hand dyed.

 

Let’s go back to the early 1970s and meet the two creators.
Colinette a textile artist and her artist painter partner Geoff. The setting is
southern Italy where the beautiful sunlight starts the magic….
