Fall is full steam ahead....

Summer is still here with its sunny warmth and swimsuit temperatures, but fall is full steam ahead at the studio.  It's actually beginning to take on an orange glow.  Yarn and wool are being dyed daily, all day long, and even in the after hours the elves are working on the magic of autumn palettes.  

For those that hook with yarn and the many punch needle enthusiasts out there, we have hand dyed, richly saturated colours to do your autumnal rugs the justice they deserve.  Remember we will gladly put our patterns on in reverse for you!  

And for the rug hookers that prefer dyed wool, Shane has been creating spot dyes perfect for the changing leaves on your trees.   We all love fall.  It is one of the most colourful and scenic times of the year, the varied palettes bring our hooked landscapes to life with bursts of colour.  Yesterday, as yellow leaves were falling from the birch trees in our yard, it struck me that this marvelously beautiful season is actually all about endings, even death.  Trees preparing for the cold temperatures, dropping their plumage to prepare for the long hibernation of winter.  Annuals drying on their stems, crumbling to powder.  The foliage turning golden shades of brown, red and orange, the grass giving up its green.  It is all about one season ending; the colourful slide into the slumber of winter to reawaken for a renewal in the spring.

Orange pumpkins or white we have you covered.  And if there is a particular colour you have in mind for your Autumn projects, The Dye Guy can make it happen.  

We are busy dyeing plaids for our Fall Bundles once again.  Stay tuned!  

Some spot dyed wool from yesterday's yield.  The pans are in the oven again today. 
​We're filling the racks with fall colour!
