The Wool Monty

80 SKEINS

80 Skeins is a small online shop, but the selection of yarn here will please every person who admires real wool. First of all, the shop stocks Latvian wool Dundaga.  It is quite rustic yarn, dyed in small batches, which makes it very unique. One can easily fall in love with this magical, colourful wool, where colours change like a kaleidoscope! There is soft mohair to be found there too. It can be beautifully knitted on its own or can compliment Dundaga with an airy softness. 80 Skeins is a shop to go to buy Icelandic Lopi, not only the most popular Lettlopi, but lace weight Einband as well. Last but not least, the shop has all colours of Lykke needles – to match your project!

I have self-published three books: An Elven Reckoning, Beautiful Knits for Beautiful Sticks and Winter Blooms. My patterns have been published in Knitting, Knit Now!, The Crochet Project,  Knitty.com and in Bespoke book by Baa Ram Ewe and Rowan Yarns.

Tine and Floyd

Tine is a hand spinner and indie dyer and passionate about all things sheepy and woolly (and about Border Collies). Part of her wool comes from farms where she trains her Border Collie, Floyd. She enjoys blending fibres in batts which are suitable for spinning and felting. Some of her yarns are hand spun by her and she also undertakes spinning and dyeing commissions. Tine and Floyd are dealers for SpinOlution wheels and sell a variety of Turkish spindles, dealgans, niddy noddies, spindle support bowls, nostepinnes and knitting kits. She also writes knitting patterns and teaches spinning and continental style knitting.

Oh my, where to start! I’ve learned spinning from my godmother’s mother when I was 5 and at the same time I learned knitting in school (in the art classes 🙂 ). Since then, I basically never stopped. I fell properly in love with sheep as a teenager and spent holidays shepherding in Hessen (with German Shepherds). So some years ago I turned my livelong wool hobby into my new business and I’ve never really looked back. I’m doing European shows as well (with a bit of difficulty after Brexit!) and I like the insight into different “national” preferences re colour, yarn blends etc. – I’m selling SpinOlution wheels and the related products and wooden hand spinning related items that a Hertfordshire based wood turner produces for me. I’m also selling spinning and knitting kits, and hand dyed and hand spun yarn. Apart from that, I’m selling all sorts of spinning fibre as rovings or batts, some of them are vegan blends.

Vegan Yarn

Based in South Yorkshire and established in 2019, VeganYarn.co.uk offer a range of plant-based, sustainably and ethically sourced fibres.

Our journey began from a love of indie dyed yarn, and a frustration of only being able to find it in animal based fibres. Of course there’s a lot of dyers offering cotton or bamboo bases alongside their woolly offerings, but we wanted to shop completely vegan…and so veganyarn.co.uk was born.

We source sustainable, ethical, and where possible, recycled fibres. We only use vegan products in our dying process and are opposed to the use of plastics both in our yarn and our packaging.

Offering plant base hand dyed yarns and fibres – including Cotton, bamboo, seaweed, tencel, nettle, pineapple and hemp!

Velvet Sixpence
