Jelly Shoes — Neon Orange Hand-Dyed Yarn

Step straight back into the totally tubular 80s with Jelly Shoes! 🧡🍑 This playful colourway combines light pastel peachy orange with bright pops of neon orange speckles, creating the perfect blend of sweet, sunny nostalgia and fluorescent fun.

Inspired by those iconic jelly shoes we all wore (or desperately wanted to wear!) back in the day, Jelly Shoes is a little bit pastel, a little bit neon, and 100% retro fabulous. Think warm summer days, plastic sandals, roller rinks, sticker collections, and the unmistakable feeling that everything was just a little more colourful in the 80s. ✨

Whether you’re knitting or crocheting, this hand-dyed yarn is ready to bring a cheerful splash of vintage personality to your next project.

🧡 Pastel peach. Neon orange. Pure 80s nostalgia.
Because apparently, we never really outgrew our jelly shoes… we just turned them into yarn. 😉

Tips

Although dyed in small batches with the same process, different fibers and artistic mood create a unique finished yarn. Please look carefully at the pictures to be sure you choose the fiber and variation that best suits your project. There is no dye lot for a hand dyed yarn as each skein is unique as it is created! Each skein is truly one of a kind!

It is recommended that you alternate skeins during your knitting or crochet project, to blend out variances that occur within the yarns.

Due to the variances in the fiber blends, twist or plies of the yarn bases, colors may shift or appear to have different tones.

Processing Time

With made to order yarn, the average shipping time is 5 to 7 business days after you place your order. Larger orders may take longer to process and ship, please message us prior to ordering to discuss the processing time for your specific needs.

Care

Super Wash Merino wool is known to be machine wash/dry friendly, but I still recommend hand washing and laying flat to dry to extend the life of the yarn and your project! I carefully rinse and wash the yarn after the dye process, but it is still possible a small amount of color may bleed out in the first wash.
