We have taken great effort to ensure that our photos are as true to color as possible.  However, due to the hand-dyed process and differences in yarn bases, variations in color and patterning may occur.  Your individual monitor settings can also cause the appearance of the color on the screen to differ from our actual photograph.

For best results, we recommend alternating skeins as you work. Purchase adequate amounts to complete your project.

    I am making many red hats for friends. This yarn is not only lovely to knit but makes a clean, crisp toque.

    The Iron Horse yarn together with the Altitude Mohair is like knitting with butter. The combination yarn is so soft and easy to work with. This color is so vibrant. Very happy with my purchase!!

    Yarn

    Posted by Ellen on 14th Feb 2026

    I love all the different yarn weights I have purchased from Polka Dot Sheep. Especially watching the color gradient as I knit. And the softness of every skein I have purchased makes it a pleasure to knit with.

    Helena-Stumptown DK

    Posted by Sheryl Small on 8th Feb 2026

    I have purchased the Helena colorway in fingering weight. I loved the color way. When I needed a red yarn for a Melt the Ice hat, this yarn was at the top of my list. Every other Stumptown DK I have knitted has been wonderful to knit with and worn well.
