I reported a shortage in my order. Sam cheerfully sent the additional skeins even though it meant his dyeing an extra lot of my color... There was a surprise of two extra skeins packed with my order. Thank you!

I absolutely adore your Skye yarn & so I bought quite a lot as it was the last time I could buy the discontinued yarn. I am rather sad that I will not be able to buy any in the future. I do not understand why you have such limited chunky yarn now!

Excellent. Have used Colinette yarns for many years. Delighted they are being sold again. My recent purchases have been sent, safely wrapped, in a timely manner; complete with tracking information. Some months ago I placed an order for three skeins of a discontinued yarn. Sam contacted me to alert me to the fact that one skein, whilst the same color way, was quite different from the other two. I had the option of dropping that skein from my order. I appreciated the attentiveness and care.

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.

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 magicâ€Ļ.
