Blind Dog Yarns

Made to order handspun yarn

I spin my yarn on my Schact Ladybug spinning wheel in a smoke-free, dog friendly home. My yarns are not washed with traditional detergent, but are given a soak in Eucalan Delicate Wash.

In many cases, the fiber is hand dyed by me as well. I hand paint my wool using environmentally friendly, heavy metal free acid dyes. The dyes I use comply with the Organic Trade Association's criteria for organic processing. I prefer to dye my wool prior to spinning so that I have more freedom to play with color during spinning and plying.

Pricing

Pricing is based on yardage and weight, as well as the type of fiber base and whether or not I have hand dyed it myself. Specialty fibers such as alpaca or hard to find wool breeds may cost more.

For non-specialty fibers that I have hand dyed, pricing is $3.75/oz of fiber and .10/yd of yarn spun
e.g. 4oz spun to 250 yds (roughly DK weight) will be $40
