Have a color palette in mind? Let’s bring it to life.
This custom dye session gives you the opportunity to choose your colors and base, and I’ll create a one-of-a-kind yarn just for you. You can send inspiration photos, color palettes, or specific shades you love, and I’ll translate that into a hand-dyed colorway.
Please keep in mind that all custom dye work is created by hand. While I aim to get as close as possible to your inspiration, variegated colorways are an artistic interpretation, not an exact formula. Every skein is painted, poured, and layered individually, which means variation is part of what makes it special.
By purchasing this listing, you are commissioning a piece of hand-dyed yarn and trusting my eye as a dyer to interpret your colors in a way that works beautifully on the fiber.
If you’re looking for something truly unique, this is for you.
Custom colorways may be added to the Mountaintop Yarn collection and released in the future. By purchasing, you understand that this is a custom dye service, not an exclusive design purchase.
Due to the nature of hand-dyed yarn, custom orders are final sale.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Non-superwash wool must always be hand washed in cool water with a mild wool wash and laid flat to dry. Do not machine wash, as it will felt and shrink with heat or agitation.
Superwash yarns can be hand washed in cool water for the best longevity, but they may also be machine washed on a gentle cycle inside a garment bag. Always lay flat to dry.
Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and high heat, as these can damage the fibers.
Blend-Specific Notes
Sock yarns with nylon (such as Snowdrift Select Sock) are more durable and tolerate gentle machine washing, though hand washing will still extend the life of your project.
Glitter yarns with Stellina (such as Gold Glitter and Silver Glitter) should be handled gently; avoid wringing or twisting to protect the sparkle filament.
Bulky yarns (such as Salcantay Bulky) are heavier when wet and should be fully supported while drying flat to prevent stretching.
Hand-Dyed Yarn Notes
Hand-Dyed Yarn Notes
Colors may be slightly different than actual product as computer and device monitor settings can alter the color appearance. We do our best to ensure that the yarns appear as they do in real life.
Our yarns are hand-dyed in small batches, so slight variations may occur between skeins. For larger projects, we recommend alternating skeins every few rows to blend color shifts.
While every effort is made to set dye thoroughly, some color transfer may occur on the first wash, especially with highly saturated shades. Wash separately the first time.
Yarn is dyed in limited lots, and colors may vary slightly from batch to batch. Please be sure to purchase enough for your project at once.
Large orders placed together will be dyed in the same session to ensure the closest possible match.
