Araucania

Araucanía Yarns is a group of artisans and designers dedicated to the artisan dyeing of fibers for weaving and knitting located in Santiago, Chile, on the southwest corner of South America.

Each hank is different; its individual beauty emerges as the artisan blends color to create several unique shades. Each fiber is carefully selected from our providers around the world, (from our Patagonian Wool to the Peruvian Alpaca, from Turkish Angora to Egyptian Cotton) to offer the best textures possible.

Araucania Yarns are inspired by ancient South American crafts which were often created using hand-painted natural yarns. These beautiful tonal, tone-on-tone, and multi-colored natural hand dyed yarns are supported by pattern books by Cornelia Hamilton, Jane Ellison, Jean Moss, and most recently – Jenny Watson, as well as many free downloads & individual patterns.
