Great yarn.
Verified ownerI had an unusual problem, but Sam at Colinette was incredibly helpful and great to communicate with. I had run out of yarn in the middle of a project. Sam sent numerous photos, and we went back and forth over email until the right yarns were selected and ordered. My order arrived from the UK to the US 10 days ago, and I have been happily knitting away, combining and replacing bits of the old yarn with the new. The yarn is beautiful, and it matches well with the old skeins. The colors are gorgeous, and the wool is lovely in my hands. Thank you Sam and Colinette Yarns for all your help and for your spectacular yarn.
I love your yarn . The website needs to be a little more friendly as I can’t always see what is available. The parcel is always amazing and do well presented. I am always delighted with the prompt service.
Verified ownerSimply lovely. Better than the photos!
Verified ownerI ordered a Free Spirit kit from Colinette. It is over-the-top gorgeous and I would recommend to anyone considering it, to get it, by all means. The yarns are outstanding, and you won't find anything even close from anyone else. I want to also say that my experience with Colinette was simply wonderful. Sam is such a courteous, kind, and professional person to deal with. I send many thanks to Colinette for supplying me with the best knitting experience I could hope for.
Verified ownerI haven't used my yarn yet so can't comment on the yarn itself.But hand painted yarn is very beautiful and my yarn came in a wonderful package making it particularly suitable for a gift.However ,the beauty of the yarn makes it expensive too and therefore rather outside my means unless in a sale.
Would it be worthwhile giving the buyer the choice of beautifully wrapped or simply packaged so as to save money on the latter?
The advice given has been prompt and helpful and the scarf pattern is excellent value for money and inspiring.
I look forward to your next sale 😍
Lovely, friendly and informative and once I found out that the yarn had to be dyed for the order it arrived much quicker than expected

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you interchange the yarns?
Not all of them. You can interchange the mohair skeins with mohair. You can interchange the DK with the DK skeins. The other skeins (cotton tape E, Aran 120g B and Aran 80g F) are NOT interchangeable
Is there enough yarn to make a throw?
Yes there are three designs and enough yarn to make any one of the designs.
What are the sizes of the throw?
Throws measure typically 78cm x 145cm
Are the crochet patterns the same as the knitted pattern?
The Crochet patterns mimic the knitted patterns but are interpretations of these designs.
Are the kits hard to make?
Colinette believes in keeping things nice and easy. Most of the time the throws are done on 8mm needles and use basic techniques.
What size knitting needles?
Generally the patterns use 8mm knitting but the information will be included in the booklet.
What do you mean by the colours vary?
With each colourway we select individual hanks that maintain the spirit of the core colours. For example 'tidal trace', will always be soft blues with hints of green and pink. The ‘free spirit’ kit takes its name from this variety and sense of adventure.
