ABOUT VINNI'S COLOURS

Vinni's Colours is a wholesale yarn company based in Cape Town, South Africa. We specialize in hand dyed cotton and bamboo yarns with a palette of over 200 colors.

Our History
In 2004, Vinni Nielsen, a nurse and a native of Denmark and an avid knitter since childhood, started her business in South Africa. She soon realized that the South African yarn market was in dire need of a good range of colored cotton yarn. She began to experiment with dyes in her kitchen and Vinni's Colors was born. Very quickly she needed to hire staff to skein and ball the yarns that were draped over her furniture and hanging up in the windows to dry. The business moved from the kitchen to the garden shed, where the yarn was dyed in baths. After 6 years she was finally able to move her rapidly expanding concern into its current premises, which is two factory buildings in Cape Town.

This success has had much to do with the dedicated help of a team of supportive staff (as well as faithful customers who love this unique South African product) who live within a stone's throw of the factory. All processes are done by hand, from the dyeing to the balling and skeining, and the yarn is sun-dried in the factory forecourt.

The product
It is the wide range of colors, from soft pastels to deep, vibrant colors that makes our product perfect for the needs of the most artistic crafter. Vinni's yarn is available in all the major yarn shops in South Africa and is loved by a growing number of clothing and interior designers. Many of these are entrepreneurs who are, in turn, employing many people who would otherwise have no work.
