About Ewe Ewe Yarns
Hi, I’m Heather Walpole — founder of Ewe Ewe Yarns
I’m a graphic designer turned yarn company owner who believes knitting should feel joyful, colorful, and completely your own.
I created Ewe Ewe Yarns to make choosing yarn easier — and more inspiring.
Whether you’re casting on your first project or your fiftieth sweater, my goal is simple: To help you knit something you truly love!
Why I Designed These Yarns
Color should feel exciting — not overwhelming.
That’s why every shade in the Ewe Ewe palette is carefully curated to coordinate beautifully across all four yarn weights. You can choose a bold pop like Berry or Sunshine, or build a soft neutral palette with Wheat, Vanilla, or Mocha.
Each color is consistent across:
- Fluffy Fingering (fingering weight merino)
- Ewe So Sporty (sport weight merino)
- Wooly Worsted (worsted weight merino)
- Baa Baa Bulky (bulky merino yarn)
So once you find a shade you love, you can use it again and again!

Premium Superwash Merino — Designed for Real Life
All Ewe Ewe yarns are 100% superwash merino wool.
That means:
- Soft enough for baby garments
- Smooth stitch definition for sweaters
- Durable enough for everyday wear
- Machine washable for modern life
I design yarn for knitters who actually wear their projects — not just display them.
When you invest hours into knitting a sweater, blanket, or hat, the yarn should support every stitch.
Knitting Patterns That Build Confidence
Ewe Ewe patterns are designed to feel approachable.
Each project adds just enough technique to keep things interesting — without becoming overwhelming.
Whether you’re knitting:
- A top-down raglan sweater
- A textured baby blanket
- A one-skein hat
- A colorful shawl
You’ll feel supported!
Our Community & Values
Knitting is better together.
At Ewe Ewe Yarns, we foster a welcoming and vibrant community of makers. We believe everyone — regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability, age, gender identity, or size — belongs in the creative space.
Inclusivity is foundational here.
We are committed to learning, listening, and growing — because creativity thrives when everyone feels welcome.
Want to Knit Together?
If you enjoy the ideas and projects you see here, you might love our online community.
SSK is where knitters gather for encouragement, project sharing, and gentle skill-building. It’s a welcoming space to ask questions, show progress, and connect with other makers who love color and soft merino as much as you do.
Whether you’re knitting your first sweater or your fiftieth hat, you’ll find friends there.
A Little More About Me
Before yarn, I worked as a professional graphic designer for newspapers, a small ad agency, and IKEA North America after graduating from Philadelphia University.
Then my sister lured me into the yarn world — we co-owned a yarn shop together — and I never looked back.
I’m a lifelong DIYer. I paint, sew, cook, build furniture, and once helped replace both a roof and a radiator. If I can learn it, I’ll try it.
I run a bi-weekly knitting group at a local spot in Oceanside, CA. You should come sometime!
And my favorite thing to knit? Hats. They fit in my hands just right.
Ewe Ewe Yarns is still a small business of one (plus my husband sometimes!). I design the yarn, build the website, answer your emails, and ship every skein myself.
This company is my favorite hobby — and my life’s work 🎨
