Thank you so much for your patience while we worked through the new U.S. shipping tariffs, duties, and fees. We’re excited to let you know that shipping to the U.S. is now sorted out! There will be a small price adjustment, which brings our yarn in line with U.S. dyers, and all purchases shipped to U.S. addresses will now appear in USD.

THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY EXTRA FEES WHEN YOU RECIEVE YOUR ORDER

HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM WHO LOVE ADDING COLOUR AND FUN TO THE WORLD

Gingersnap is a fibre-forward studio rooted in story, texture, and thoughtful craft. 

We create hand-dyed yarn and lifestyle bags designed to be lived with — pieces that move seamlessly from creative moments to everyday life.

Our yarns are carefully dyed in small batches, inspired by nature, folklore, and emotion. Each skein is layered with depth and nuance, offering colourways that feel intentional, wearable, and deeply personal. From sock sets to gradients, our palettes are designed to spark creativity and invite slow, meaningful making.

Alongside our yarn, we design and produce lifestyle bags and accessories made to support makers on the go — project bags, stitch & store bowls, and thoughtfully designed essentials that balance beauty with function. 

Many of our textile pieces feature custom prints, heritage influences, and collaborations with artists and designers we admire.

At the heart of Gingersnap is a commitment to craftsmanship, community, and storytelling. We believe the things we make — and make with — should carry feeling, memory, and care.

 Every piece is created with intention, meant to be used often, loved deeply, and woven into the rhythm of your creative life.


Gingersnap is more than yarn and bags — it’s an invitation to create with purpose.
