NEW! Dyed In The Wool from Spincycle Yarns
We are so pleased to introduce our newest yarns, Dyed In The Wool, a 2-ply, sock weight BFL super wash yarn.
These designer yarns are the product of our desire to merge the beauty and texture of a handspun yarn with a more efficiently produced millspun yarn. We collaborated with a nearby woman- owned fiber mill on Washington’s coast. This collaboration ensures that our yarn maintains the color artistry of our original handspun product. Because we dye the fiber before it's spun, colors meet and part ways in stunning, unique combinations; the overall effect is of a balanced, seamless whole. Like our original line of handspun yarns, color changes are always brilliant, never repetitive.

Renegade by Westknits
Stephen West has done it again. He's arguably Ravelry's most loved designer, and his new pattern, Renegade Slouch, published in Amirisu (Spring 2013) uses two of our yarns! Find Chicken Payback [100% bluefaced leicester, worsted weight] and Siren Song [80% bfl and 20% kid mohair] in our Etsy shop!
Wanderlust
Our latest knitwear pattern is in Knitty! Wanderlust is a pair of fingerless gloves with deep, sidewinding cables. This is the kind of warmth we need up here in the PNW while we try to ride our bikes in the rain or have to roll out of bed at dawn to let the chickens out. (Just some examples pertinent to a couple of spinsters!)
Anyway, visit the Etsy shop to get the yarn, Gluttony, or any other worsted weight singles... Or get some roving and spin it up yourself!
