Product Details

Brand: Made with Love: Hand dyed, Handspun Art Yarn

This is a handspun thick and thin bobble/coiled chunky art yarn made with hand dyed merino and textured silks.

This yarn is sold by the yard (3 feet increments).

This yarn is also available on my Etsy website, however the cost is higher due to the extreme fees Etsy charges its users. If there are other yarns you see on my Etsy website (https://knottielove.etsy.com) that you don't see here, please send me a text (250 806 0583) or an email (knottielove@gmail.com) and I will happily make you a custom listing. Thank you for being here.

Tips and Tricks for using Handspun Coiled Art Yarn:

It’s important to be gentle with this kind of art yarn. Some may have added fibers like silk, and thread that may shed if handled roughly. Also, coiled handspun yarn has a specific amount of twist in them. When handling do not pull too hard or change the direction of their twist as this can unwind them.

When cutting coiled handspun yarn, grab two pieces of thin string/thread and wrap each (2 or 3 times) around the top and bottom of the area you want to cut and tie a double knot. Make sure to leave about a 1” gap between the tied strings. Once knotted you can cut the section in between both knots. For added safety I suggest knotting the tail end of the cut yarn ensuring that the fiber and the core are part of this knot. Or, some take the core string of the art yarn and knot it with the string that’s been tied. These are just some ways people have found to keep the integrity of the yarn. Don’t feel intimidated, everyone finds their own way with experience. I personally use an over hand knot in a thinner bit of the yarn and snug it up under a thicker bit if I can. Then I cut off the tail after the knot and you can’t see the core; the yarn looks seamless.

About Us

Samantha Rose

Fiber Artist

Hello, my name is Samantha (she/her), a local Kootenay fiber artist who’s been graced with the pleasure of residing in Kaslo and now New Denver in beautiful BC Canada. Thank you for visiting my online shop.

My love for tying knots started as a self care practice during the Covid lockdowns of 2020 and evolved as I experiment with different fibers. Currently my passion is hand dyeing fibers and spinning them into beautiful textured art yarns. These art yarns can be used in tapestry weaving, macraweave, macrame, hand weaving, knitting crochet and embroidery.

I love playing with different colour mixtures to see what combinations I can create. I also draw inspiration from the magnificent forests, mountains, lakes and rivers in this stunning place I'm grateful to call home, you’ll see many of these magnificent color ways in my selection of yarns.

I'm pleased to share my love for fiber art. I hope you enjoy adding texture, dimension and colours to your sacred spaces and projects as much as I do.

Look for me in person at markets and artisan fairs in the West Kootenays; you can also find my on Etsy at https://knottielove.etsy.com and of course here at this website.

Thank you, I’m grateful you stopped by.

Location
