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.

Red Rider yarn
Written by Kate on Jan 23rd 2023

Pictures don't do this yarn justice. It is so vibrant and beautiful. I"ve been buying from Black Sheep for a while and I have not been disappointed in any of their yarn. Just wish they'd roll it for us! Good thing I have a willing husband who helps me roll all my yarn.

Red Rider sock yarn
Written by Dale W Kirkland on Feb 4th 2022

I love this yarn for socks. It knits up beautifully. I had a special project I was working on for a friend and I had to order more Red Rider to finish it. I could not believe how fast it got here to Northwest Florida.. This is not my first purchase from Bad Sheep Yarn and it sure won’t be my last. If you want a beautiful red yarn then Red Rider is perfect for you.
