Welcome

Hi, I’m Brittany, the dyer and spinner behind Crux Fibres.

I was born and raised in Whitehorse, Yukon, in Canada’s wild and beautiful North, where the landscapes never cease to amaze me. Aside from a few years spent living in England, South Wales, and Turkey, I’ve called this place home my entire life.

Creativity has always been at the heart of who I am. From knitting and crochet to yarn spinning, I’ve explored countless ways to express myself artistically. While there are unlimited colourways of yarn available, I realized I wanted to create something uniquely beautiful for myself—something that resonated on a deeper level.

In 2019, while on maternity leave, I sought a way to brighten my days even more—beyond the precious smiles, laughs, and snuggles from my children. What started as a personal hobby, experimenting with the endless possibilities of yarn dyeing, quickly grew into something more. What began as a way to indulge my creative side turned into a full-fledged business, with my yarn being sold locally at Itsy Bitsy Yarn Store and to friends.

Today, dyeing yarn is my main outlet for creative expression. I’ve also been spinning yarn for myself for the past three years, and occasionally offer handspun fibre for other spinners to enjoy.

The process of working with professional dyes and high-quality yarn is a challenge, but once you get past that learning curve and start to see how colour and technique dance together, the magic happens. A rich tapestry of colour emerges, full of depth and warmth that’s both visually pleasing and soul-soothing.

Determination is a big part of who I am—I strive for excellence in everything I do, and I believe that’s reflected in the yarn and fibres I create.

If you love what you find here, I’d be thrilled if you tagged me on Instagram or worked your Ravelry magic with some of my yarny goodness!
