Hello! We are Angela and Heather, two friends who love the fiber arts and have always been drawn to the beauty of hand-painted yarns. Eventually we decided to try dyeing our own. Decked out in plastic aprons, heat-proof gloves and respirators, we looked like mad scientists. But most importantly: once we started mixing dye and creating our own colors and color combinations, we FELT like mad scientists. And thus, NanoStitch Lab was born.
We find inspiration for our colorways in all aspects of science: astronomy, biology, chemistry, geology and more. We are inspired by and celebrate women in STEM. We have a whole line of tonal colorways named after female scientists, like Annie J. Easley who was an actual rocket scientist. We dye colors that inspire us. We dye colors that we want to work with and eventually wear. We dye colors that we love and we hope you do too.
You can find a gallery of our colorways on our website as well as info on all of our yarn bases. There is also detailed information on our “Science is Real” bi-monthly yarn and enamel pin club which can include a beautiful project by by That Crafty Little Fox. You can find the dates for all of our upcoming Etsy shop updates, club sign-ups, trunk shows and special events.
