Welcome To Natural Fibre Arts
Welcome to Natural Fibre Arts, a boutique, indie dyer and fibre arts studio, located Brisbane Queensland, Australia.
We are fibre crafters ourselves and we love to create beautiful artisan, hand dyed yarns from Australian and international luxury fibres.
It is important to us that the products we source are beautifully made, quality products that we would use ourselves. We try to support Australian farmers, producers and artisans as much as possible with some gorgeous international products added to expand our collection as well.
We are authorised retailers of ChiaoGoo and Knitpro fibre tools, WAStylz handcrafted items and Twig & Horn products.
Meet The Makers - Cheryl
I am Cheryl and I am the owner and main dyer at Natural Fibre Arts. When you email or phone, I am the one who will answer your questions and look after you.
Cheryl has been a knitter since she was about 8 years old, taught by both her mother and grandmother. She has been dyeing yarn since 2008 starting with natural dyeing and eventually moving into our preferred methods using the Greener Shades Dyes we currently use.
Vanessa
In 2012 Vanessa, Cheryl's daughter, joined Natural Fibre Arts as a dyer with a wonderful creative flare for gorgeous colour combinations and a passion to develop new colourways.
As a busy mum of two gorgeous boys she has limited time to knit but manages to create a sock or two here and there. She would much rather spend her time creating gorgeous colourways whenever she gets the chance.
Sandra
In 2021 Sandra, Cheryl's sister, has joined the Natural Fibre Arts team as both a yarn dyer and as our very own wood worker and fibre arts jewellery person. Sandra makes the most gorgeous wooden accessories and beaded stitch markers to add to our locally made and produced artisan fibre tools.
Together we lovingly and artistically dye gorgeous yarn that is sustainable and ethically sourced. Our established practices and unique dyeing methods produce professional and quality hand dyed yarns. The Merino fibre is sourced from mills who in turn source the wool from farmers that do not use mulesing on their flocks. We support the local Australian wool industry where possible and other small crafting businesses like ourselves.
