Colorista Hand Dyed Yarn in Quebec

Welcome to Colorista’s online shop!

You will find here the results of my exploration of colours and dyeing on different types of yarn and bases. My skeins of yarn are impatient to be transformed by your talented hands!

About our colours: the process used produces unique skeins of yarn, that’s what makes them so beautiful. The skeins are dyed in very small quantity, if you need a larger number of skeins of the same colour, please send us an email so we can dye them together in the chosen colour to ensure a more even result. Please allow two to four weeks for the preparation of any custom order. For variegated or speckled yarns, the results will differ from one dye bath to the other. Even skeins prepared in the same bath will differ from one another, but the spirit of the colour combination will remain.

Don't forget that shipping is free in Canada with any $100 purchase, otherwise, the flat shipping rate is $9.95 in Canada. If you are ordering from outside Canada, please communicate with us to discuss cheaper shipping options.
Happy knitting!
