A little wild, wonderfully colorful, and full of unexpected charm.

This week's collection introduces a brand-new Single-Ply Worsted yarn, spun from beautifully soft 100% Superwash merino wool. With its plush, rounded texture and generous 219 yards per skein, it's a lovely choice for any project that welcomes a little color.

Four richly speckled and variegated colorways take center stage, inspired by the tangled, unruly beauty of the natural world. Alongside them, you'll find a handful of one-of-a-kind Lucky Strikes.

Everything is hand-dyed in small batches, with plenty of character and no two skeins exactly alike.

How the Shop Works

Fiber for the People yarn is dyed by hand in small batches and released through shop updates every other Saturday at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time.

Most updates are built around a collection or theme, with colorways that are designed to work together while still pairing beautifully with existing colors in the shop. Because everything is dyed in small batches (by a single dyer), quantities are limited and colorways may not return once they sell out.

The best way to stay in the loop is through the Fiber for the People newsletter. Subscribers receive collection previews, inspiration notes, shop update announcements, and occasional behind-the-scenes glimpses into what’s happening in the dye studio.

You'll also find shop updates and occasional yarn-related news on the Wool Needles Hands podcast, and if you enjoy seeing the process behind the colors, the Wool Needles Hands Patreon is where I share dye days, collection development, and studio life.
