Ewenique Yarn

Ewenique is our own special brand of yarn, designed especially for Nantucket Rug Hooking. We use our own Jacob wool and Mohair to create this versatile and durable yarn. You will find it is very easy to hook with and is strong enough to hold up to heavy wear and tear.

It is naturally gray, but can overdye into a range of colors. You can purchase colors, or get the natural and dye it yourself!

The color card to the left is just a suggestion of the range of colors possible with Ewenique, but there are so many ways to dye the yarn, it would be impossible to show them all. I can mix dye colors, or dye yarn for a variegated effect.

If you would like me to dye colors for you, just provide me with something that represents the color that you want (fabric strip, paint chip, construction paper, wall paper, etc.), and I will create the color that you need.

Of course, the very best way to shop for Ewenique Yarn is to visit me in person! Since that is not possible for most internet shoppers, I offer a Ewenique Rug Hooking Yarn Sampler. You will receive samples in three colors, 1/2 oz each for you to try. (This sampler will hook an approximatley 6"x8" area). Then if you like Ewenique and would like to order more, you can e-mail me and we'll get the design process started. I will ask you to send me some color samples, such as fabric, paint chips, photographs, anything that represents the colors you are going for. Then I will send you samples until you get the colors that you want.

The Ewenique Rug Hooking Yarn Sampler is an excellent way to gather yarn for your "hit or miss" projects!

Handspun Rug Hooking and Knitting Yarn

I can also create handspun yarn for your projects. You can specify the color, texture and durability/softness that is right for you. Whether you are designing a special floor rug, or a soft, delicate scarf, you can incorporate handspun yarn in your project.

As with Ewenique Yarn, the very best way to shop for my handspun yarn is to visit me in person! Since that is not possible for most internet shoppers, I recommend a Handspun Yarn Sampler. I will send you three samples, 1/2 oz. each, in either the Rug Hooking weight, or the Knitting and Weaving weight for you to try. If you like the samples, and would like to order more handspun yarn, then you can e-mail me, and we'll get the design process started. I would need to get some samples from you, such as fabric, paint chips, photographs, anything that represents the colors that you want. Then I'll send you samples of the colors that I come up with.

These samplers are also an excellent way to gather yarn for your "hit or miss" projects!
