Pretty String Yarn Co. — Small-Batch Hand-Dyed Luxury Yarn from Ottawa

Karin of Pretty String Yarn Co. dyes small-batch hand-dyed yarns on a range of luxury bases, and her reputation in the hand-dyed community has been built on quality that knitters describe as genuinely exceptional.

Hand-Dyed Yarn in Luxury Fibres and Weights

The focus at Pretty String is small-batch hand-dyed yarn across a range of fibres and weights. Fingering, DK, and worsted are the mainstays, with bases that include Merino, Merino/Nylon, Silk, Yak, Cashmere, and Alpaca blends.

Pretty Soft Fingering Weight — A Sock and Shawl Knitter Favourite

The Pretty Soft fingering weight — an 80/20 Merino-Nylon blend — has developed a strong following among sock and shawl knitters.
