Hello and welcome to the Joy of Yarn online store specialising in hand dyed knitting yarns. Thank you for stopping by and dipping your toes into the temptation that is hand dyed yarn!

You can cut to the chase right now by selecting a category from the left to start exploring the store or you can keep reading for a little more information to help you on your way.

One of the frustrations I have when purchasing hand dyed or self patterning yarns myself is the uncertainty of what the yarn will look like when knit up. To help take that frustration away from you I have knit up a baby sock in each of our multi-coloured yarns so that you can have a sneaky peak to help you with your decision making. Just click on any yarn photo while browsing the site and another photo of the yarn will be displayed which includes an image of the baby sock.

Please remember that the process hand dyeing yarn can result in a wide variation of colour between batches and even within a batch. This adds to the excitement of knitting and makes the finished knitted project even more unique.

If you have any questions about the yarns on offer, questions about the online store itself or have any feedback you would like to share don’t hesitate to contact me.

I hope these yarns seduce you into loving knitting as much as I do!
