When a Customer Turns an Idea Into a Unique Yarn

At Addiction Yarns, nothing excites us more than seeing makers take our yarns and dream up something truly their own. That’s exactly what Hug Your Uglie Crochet did: she wanted a yarn that was special, unlike anything she could find in a shop.

The Desire for Something Custom

Already a fan of our yarns, she wondered: “What if I could have a colorway just for me?” The answer was simple: yes! On a cotton/silk base, we explored playful techniques like tie dye and even ice dyeing. The result was a set of skeins full of unexpected color variations, each telling its own story.

The Magic of Holding Your Yarn

When she received her custom-dyed skeins, her excitement was contagious:

“I can’t believe I’m holding yarn I got to customize!”

It was exactly what she was hoping for — a yarn that felt personal and unique, sparking her creativity in new ways.

Fuel for New Projects

With these one-of-a-kind skeins in hand, Hug Your Uglie Crochet immediately found inspiration for new designs. As she put it:

“This cotton/silk blend is both sturdy and soft — perfect for this look.”

The yarn became more than just a material; it became the starting point for something new.

Why Choose Custom?

Her story is a reminder that sometimes the perfect yarn doesn’t exist yet… until you create it. Custom dyeing is a way to bring your ideas to life and transform a project into something completely unique.

So if you’ve ever dreamed of a yarn that no one else has, know that it’s possible. And who knows — your next project might start with a colorway the world has never seen.
