Dancing Colors™ Hand-Dyed Kits and Exclusive Designs

All the kits are available in any of the 13 shades of Dancing Colors. In the two-color kits, black* is the contrasting color. Kits include enough yarn for one garment and a clear and detailed pattern portfolio. The pattern portfolio includes instructions for one design (unless otherwise specified) in three sizes with charts, technique primers and other informative articles. A good basic knowledge of knitting is sufficient to complete these garments.

Pattern portfolios are also available separately for all designs. The pattern portfolios are designed to be like workshops in the techniques involved. Lots of information is included!

Dancing Colors Hand-dyed yarn included in the kits is a 50/50 merino/mohair blend. Because each skein of hand-dyed yarn is unique there are no dyelots for these colors; variations between skeins are inevitable and actually add to the beauty of the designs.

*The contrasting solid color 100% wool yarn is available in either black, dark blue or dark brown. Black is the most popular choice but if you prefer blue or brown, please specify this when you order.

Please note: Kits will usually arrive within 3 weeks but because the yarns are hand-dyed a skein at a time, orders for kits may take 4 to 6 weeks to arrive.
