The Australian Wool Store Artisan yarns - unique hand dyed yarns and fibres Welcome to The Australian Wool Store. Gorgeous, hand dyed artisan yarn in a variety of plies and bases.

Postage is a flat rate of $10 with a tracking number for anywhere in Australia using Australia Post. I recommend hand washing your yarns and fibres in cold water and drying flat in the shade. I take a lot of care to represent the true colours of the yarns and fibres in my photos. I cannot be held responsible for inaccurate colour representations on your devices.

Another fabulous day at Knit August Nights - Knitters Retreat
Today I taught 10 lovely ladies how to dye gradients and they all produced amazing results.
In the afternoon I taught my whimsical embroidery class where we painted and embroidered onto fabric. It was such a fun class with the most incredible women.
I’m on such a high after being surrounded by so many creative people.

Another fabulous day at KAN.
It started with a glorious sunrise and ended with a beautiful gathering of knitters enjoying each other’s company and some delicious nibbles.
Throw in an embroidery workshop with an amazing group of women and some retail therapy and that’s a perfect day.

I love the Tin Can Knits blanket pattern, Bounce — it's a lovely, easy knit that looks just as gorgeous in strong, vibrant colours as it does in soft, subtle neutrals.

The pattern is written for an 8 ply yarn, but really, any weight works. Just keep in mind that using a different yarn weight will change the finished size, I've shared my measurements and yarn quantities over on my blog post.

Esmeralda is our feisty, hot-tempered Queen of Green. She's a fabulous salsa dancer and a genius at whipping up a frock on the sewing machine.

A vibrant blue green shade that brings instant character to any project, whether you're seeking bold contrast or layering with complementary tones. Perfect for knitters who crave that pop of colour to brighten their work.

Esmeralda will work really well with super strong contrasts or keep it simple and add Esmeralda fluff - delish!!

Each skein is completely unique, with gentle shifts in tone that reveal themselves as you work.

If your order includes multiple skeins, they will be dyed together as a single dye-lot.
