Spun Right Round has arrived fresh from Rochester. This small-batch hand dyed yarn comes to us with vibrant colors- and plenty of speckles to inspire our projects. Started in 2009 as a small, part-time operation in central New York, Spun Right Round starts with ethically sourced base yarns from South America, then layers on the colors.
Our first yarn from them is the Classic Sock. This yarn is hot hot hot, so we will only be offering this in store!
