The Bard’s Yarn

British Wool Hand Dyed in Stratford-upon-Avon

Welcome to The Bard’s Yarn. We are a micro-crafting project creating beautiful yarn, hand dyed on British wool bases in Shakespeare’s County.

We create unique skeins of yarn. Each carefully crafted with the purpose of creating blankets, shawls or accessories.

As we hand dye to our own special blends, no two yarns are ever the same, although our colourways are similar and can be worked into a larger piece.

This replicates the processes of Shakespeare’s day - nothing mass manufactured here!

Our colours are based on our interpretation of the life, work and characters of William Shakespeare, The Bard!
