All our own brand yarns are dyed, using only natural materials. We do not use heavy metals or other colour enhancing chemicals. All our dyes are organic and homegrown whenever possible. All our yarns are made from only natural materials, like yak, wool, silk, ramie, bamboo and nettle.
We also stock Donegal Tweed yarn, but those are not dyed by us.
Lima Sionnach (Fox) ~ Wool/Linen/Tussah Silk yarn dyed with madder root
Lima is a new and rather cool addition to our growing yarn range. The yarn is soft, light and with a little sheen. Rather than mulberry silk, Lima is made using tussah silk, also known as peace silk. The worm had the chance to leave the cocoon, creating a partly crystalized silk thread. This results in a difficult fibre to dye, but works beautifully in a blended yarn.
Add the linen content and Lima has a more speckled and slightly textured appearance. Lima is a versatile yarn, with structure, softness and longevity. A pleasure to knit and wear, especially in the warmer seasons.
Lima is made from 50% pure wool, 25% Tussah silk and 25% Linen. The entire wool production is done in Peru from the raising of the sheep to the finished yarn. The mulberry silk is imported from China and the linen from South America, but all is spun in Peru.
Once done, we apply the final colour touch, using only sustainable, no impact dyeing methods and organic ingredients.
In a nutshell:
Weight: 100g = 3.5 oz skeins
Meterage: 350m = 383yards = 4ply/Sport
Suggested Knitting Needles: 3mm (metric needle size) = Size 4 (USA)
Lása Sionnach (Fox) ~ Wool yarn naturally dyed with organic hawthorn berries and madder
Lása is an unusual addition to our yarn range and should strictly speaking be on the weaving page. It is considered a weaving yarn and I always feel like getting loom every time I look at it! The colour uptake of this yarn is unreal ~ incredibly deep and satisfied colours, though still being semi solids. Lása can be added as an additional yarn to thicken a thin yarn or even held double, though it is very fine. For the lace maker a joy to work with and anyone else who enjoys delicate knits.
Lása is made from 100% pure wool. The yarn is fully processed in Peru, from raising and shearing of the sheep to the finished yarn.
Once done, we apply the final colour touch, using only sustainable, no impact dyeing methods and organic ingredients. Lása is a joy to dye and it has a beautiful saturated, deep, yet semi solid, colour uptake.

Corrie Sionnach (Fox)~ Wool yarn naturally dyed with organically madder, hawthorn berries

Síoda Solas na gréine (Sunshine)~ Merino Silk yarn dyed with Madder & organic hawthorn and organic buckthorn bark
