Knitknacks & Whatknots

We craft whimsical delights—from knit hats and crochet to embroidery, sewn goods, and hand-painted yarns.

Perfect for Ren Faires or city strolls, our pieces and tools blend charm and style so you stand out with every stitch, seam, and skein.

Fresh from the drying rack and ready for their debut! 🎉

We’re excited to announce that two new hand-dyed cotton yarn colorways are now available:

🧶 Artichoke Bloom
🍬 Cotton Candy

And that’s not all! We’ve also finished two new batches of our popular Final Pour colorway, created from the last drops of dye from previous dye sessions. Each batch is uniquely beautiful and impossible to duplicate exactly.

The first four new colorways are available now, and we’re already working on the next two. Stay tuned as they finish their rinse-and-dry journey!

Which one are you most excited to see? 💜💚💗

The dye studio is busy again! 🎉

We’ve gone back to dyeing and currently have TWO brand-new colorways in the rinse stage. They’re not quite ready for the drying rack yet, but we couldn’t resist sharing a sneak peek. 👀

We’re also excited to be adding not one, but TWO versions of our newest Final Pour colorway! Since every Final Pour is created from the last bits of dye left from previous batches, no two runs are ever exactly alike.

Any guesses what we’re calling the new colors? 🤔

Drop your ideas in the comments and we’ll see who gets closest!

🎨🧶 We’ve been back in the dye studio, and we’re so excited to share a peek at what we’ve been working on!

Fresh from the rinse tubs are two new colorways:

💚 Artichoke Bloom – inspired by the beautiful colors hidden inside an artichoke flower

🍭 Cotton Candy – a sweet blend of pinks that looks just like its namesake

We’re also experimenting with something new: our very first Final Pour colorways! Rather than letting leftover dye go to waste, we combine the last bits from multiple dye sessions to create completely unique skeins. This first round produced not one, but two different Final Pour colorways, and we’re excited to see how they turn out.

These skeins are still being rinsed and finished, but we couldn’t wait to share a sneak peek. One of our favorite things about hand-dyeing yarn is that every batch has its own personality, and sometimes the most unexpected combinations become our favorites.

Which colorway are you most excited to see finished?
