Wren
If you love real, honest wool, Wren is it. Made from 100% non-superwash Corriedale, this yarn hits that perfect sweet spot between soft and sturdy. It’s got a great bouncy texture, awesome stitch definition, and that beautiful, natural woolly feel that keeps its shape for years.
We’ve hand-dyed Wren in rich tonal colorways, so you get lovely, subtle shifts in shade throughout your project. It gives your fabric a lot of depth and character without fighting against your stitch patterns.
Perfect for everyday sweaters, cozy hats, or anything with cables and texture.

Purling Pigeon is our in-house hand-dyed yarn line, created by owner and artist Jasmine Clayton. We dye it, we knit with it, and we’re a little picky about what makes a good skein—so we stick to really beautiful bases and high-quality dyes that feel great to work with and hold up in real projects.
We work hard to keep our dye lots consistent and put a lot of care into every batch. That said, hand-dyed yarn can be a little unpredictable, and you might notice slight shifts in color from one batch to the next. It’s just part of the process—and part of what makes each skein feel special.
