We do not offer skein winding services. 

Bad Sheep Yarn strives to represent the true colors of our yarn in the photos we post. We also work hard to make sure that larger orders are in the same color batch. In spite of all this, please keep in mind when ordering that each batch is done by human hands; and that some computer monitors have different light settings. Our ultimate goal is to create something beautiful, as close to the photo as we can, just for you.

This colorway called my name from the first time Marcie presented it. It is even more beautiful in person. I haven’t used it yet but I hope too soon. In the meantime I can’t stop staring at it ❤️.

MacBeth’s Witches in Fingering
Written by Mary Brinton on Oct 7th 2023

This is the first time I’ve ordered from you, and I fell in love with the rich colors in this offering. I am certainly not disappointed, seeing the colors and feeling the softness of the yarn in person! I look forward to making something beautiful with it. And there a couple other color ways that might just be calling my name as well…

It looks more brownish than I thought it would, but still beautiful and witchy.
