Ontheround is an independent yarn dye studio located in Rockland, Maine and is owned and operated by Rachel Jones. We offer a wide selection of yarn in unique hand dyed colorways for knitting, crochet, and weaving. We carry a variety of yarn weights and specialize in soft merino wool yarns in both superwash and untreated bases and occasionally fiber for hand spinners.
At ontheorund we take pride in offering consistently hand dyed colorways that are available in larger dye lots for all your project needs.
We always carry over 30 unique hand dyed colorways that offer multiple options for mixing an matching- including speckle dyed yarn, varigated, and semi solid colorways. We also carry two untreated, non-superwash merino wool yarn bases in our Cottage Collection featuring extra fine merino wool, Cottage Fingering and Cottage DK.
While our yarn is dyed in small batches we still offer larger quantities for projects of all sizes! The studio is closed to the public.
