Ripples Crafts is an independent yarn dyeing business based in the North West Highlands of Scotland.   Helen Lockhart hand-dyes all the yarn herself, gathering her inspiration from the colours, landscapes and traditions surrounding her home in the crofting community of Assynt.  The yarns are dyed in small batches and the colour combinations are many and varied, from multiple shades to simpler variations in colour.  Helen loves her work, enjoying the creativity and thriving on the sense of connection with her customers, many of whom return time and time again to acquire hanks of yarn which are unique and individually dyed.

To keep up with Helen's day to day life with her husband and two terriers in the Highlands, visit  her blog at http://www.ripplescrafts.com/dropone or join the Ravelry Group (Ripples Crafts) or follow her on twitter @ripplescrafts.
