I only buy Colinette now as I love the range.At present I am knitting mohair which is the finest quality I have found anywhere.Add to this the packaging which is a pleasure to receive and opening the box, to find tissue wrapped gorgeous coloured wool is a good start to the day!
I love my boxes of yarn. I enjoy the time taken to choose what to do with it. Maybe a bit of weaving this time. I love the shawls and blankets I knit. I made a jumper that is ideal for these cool mornings before the sun warms up. So happy with the collection of different yarns
I love Colinette yarns, and they're such a good company to deal with. Will be ordering again soon!
Great hat pattern but needed more than 100 grams even though I did a tension example

Fabulous year n and quick delivery thank you
Great service, packaging and the yarn is exquisite!
Customer service was excellent. Product just as I remember it from decades ago!
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.
Beautiful yarns even better than the pictures portrayed.
Very pleased with my recent purchase, excellent service and product as usual. Thank 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.
I was so thrilled to find a few hanks of the sadly discontinued Skye in the recent sale that I bought as much as I could. Delivery was as swift & safe as always.
Prompt delivery. Beautiful packaging and excellent customer service as always with Colinette. Probably my favourite yarns to knit with ever
Very happy with all the help on finding the yarn that was discontinued. Received the yarn pretty quickly. All is good.
Efficient service
Bought a big armful of lovely colours of Hullabaloo in the sale. So far they are knitting up beautifully - one or two of the colours weren't quite as expected, but monitors can differ and most of the ones I chose are lovely. Knitting with them is satisfying. Just wish I could afford some of the pricier ones!
Lovely to have Colinette yarns available again. Same stunning colours, and beautiful new packaging.

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….
