About 

Based in beautiful BC Canada, Fidley Dyeworks was created out of a love for family, yarn and colour. I dye everything by hand in small batches and I work to bring you an interesting selection of high quality yarns. I can also accommodate large or special orders with enough notice and depending on my schedule. My name is Kate and I hope you enjoy my experiments and adventures with colour as much as I do!

Please visit the Giving Back page to read how Fidley Dyeworks is supporting one of my favourite Autism charities.

Why Fidley?

We spend a lot of time traveling on BC Ferries to visit family and friends. On each boat, there’s a diagram showing the schematics of the engine and supporting machinery. Something called the “Fidley deck” caught my eye. It’s a raised deck above the engine that helps with venting the area around the smoke stack. For some reason, the word stuck with me and made me smile. And since dyeing yarn helps “ventilate” my stress levels, it seemed like the right name for my little venture :)
