The House Dye

'The House Dye' (THD) yarns have been created by Jamo. Each skein has been dyed with love (and sometimes tears).

Many of the yarns are based on images that catches Jamo's eye. Then other times he will pick out certain colours to create matching or complementary semi solids for your fabulous projects. Let’s face it who knows where Jamo's mind will take him... no one else has worked it out yet, not even the professionals!

We dye in small batches; it works better for us. So stocks change often. Drop us a line if there is something you see that we do not have enough of.
