Kraemer Natural Skeins is a collection of all natural wool and wool blends in a wide variety of weights and styles, specifically made for you to dye at home.

These yarns have been developed to provide you with wonderful canvasses for hand dying to lend a sophisticated yet natural flair to every creation. Whether you are looking for basic worsted weight wool, sock yarn, bulky, or even thick and thin, these natural skeins have it all.

Please experiment as each yarn takes dye differently. The superwash yarns tend to be more vivid than the hand wash. 'White Veil' features metallic fibers spun in, which really pop out when dyed in darker colors.

We love to dye these yarns in store (you can find our yarns here). Any of the yarns we carry are mainly made from animal fibers, making them perfect for dyeing with Jacquard Acid Dyes. We hope you are inspired to fill these blank canvases with lots of color!

Made in the U.S.A.

If you have never dyed yarn, visit our blog for an in depth video on How to Dye Yarn. You can even dip dye your finished items.
