Pick a project to estimate

Hand-dyed in small batches, so colors shift a little between dye lots. We recommend one extra skein so you never run short mid-project.

How many skeins? Roughly — hat 1 · socks 1–2 · shawl 2–3 · adult sweater 5–7. ✦ Each colour is hand-dyed in small batches — order your whole project at once (plus one spare) so every skein is the same dye lot.
