Medieval Mishaps
Shop Medieval Mishaps
The process of hand-dying yarn is always full of surprises. These skeins are most often one-offs offered at a reduced price. They are sometimes happy accidents, but mostly experiments from the Yarnian lab. Always in perfect condition, just not making the cut for the permanent store.

Inspired by History

History is more exciting than we often imagine. It can tell stories about people and events in ways that shock, make us think, and inspire. I love reinterpreting and honoring people who have been forgotten or erased as yarn colorways. Each yarn strand—and the creations you make—connect us.
