Use Spincycle Yarns Dyed in the Wool and you'll be hooked! The colours are mesmerising as they slowly unfurl and form the most beautiful designs while you use them.
The fibre of this gorgeous 5ply/sportweight yarn is kettle dyed before it's spun, and the colours meet and part ways in stunning, unique combinations; the overall effect is of a balanced, seamless whole. The yarn is saturated with colour and there's no need to worry about your garment fading over time.
As every batch of Spincycle Yarns is unique, we take new photos every time we receive Dyed in the Wool. Let us know if you'd like photos of the skeins we have in stock.

This yarn has a bit of a thick & thin texture. This can cause the weights to vary a little so the weight of the skein is not listed on the label, but rest assured that the yardage is always accurate.
Looking for patterns? Dyed in the Wool is the star in the Inclinations Cowl, The Shift cowl, Shifty sweater and Stonecrop Pullover by Andrea Mowry, Newleaf sweater by Jennifer Steingass and Lovebirds Sweater by Kate Oates; or see more patterns suggesting Dyed in the Wool on Ravelry.
Please note: the colour transitions are slow and dramatic, and no two skeins are alike. When planning larger projects requiring more than one skein, allow for nuance. The colours can vary quite dramatically in every colourway. Each time we receive a shipment of Dyed in the Wool, we rephotograph any skeins that are different to our current images. We are happy to send you images of the skeins that we currently have in stock so that you can choose the ones that you love.

Incredibly gorgeous yarn
By: Robbie on 14 January 2022After receiving my first batch of Spincycle Dyed in the Wool in different colourways, I can now completely understand why so many knitters are obsessed with this yarn. It is simply exquisite. Photos don’t come close to doing it justice. I’m split between “Can’t wait to use it” and “Don’t want to use it” because it’s just so lovely I just want to look at it. Thanks Skein Sisters; what would I do without you?
