Welcome!
Hey! I’m Vicky, a color-obsessed indie dyer who believes creativity should feel like freedom, not pressure. I dye yarn for the makers who are done chasing perfection and ready to embrace the wild, the bold, and the beautifully imperfect.
Mistakes? I call them milestones. Tangles? They’re teachers. Dropped stitches? Just part of the adventure. Whether you’re a brand-new crocheter learning stitch by stitch, or a seasoned knitter who still rips things out (because, same), our yarns are dyed with joy and rebellion.
Because the real magic? It doesn’t come from getting it “right.” It comes from getting it real.
Cheers,
Vicky Brehm
