Yarn Bases
Here you will find a catalog of our various yarn bases, along with descriptions for each one. You can choose to order most of our colors on any of these bases. While not every color can be dyed on every base, we strive to accommodate as much as possible. If you're unable to find the specific color and base combination you're looking for, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Our yarn bases are carefully selected, dyed, worked with, and softness checked to ensure our customers are getting the best quality yarns. Our yarn bases are ethically produced, ensuring that no animals were harmed or subjected to mulesing in its creation.
If you would like us to add a particular yarn base, feel free to drop us an email and we would be more than happy to help! inspiredbymargot@outlook.com.au
