About Us

 

Nicole is the founder and creative force behind Colagirl Collective, an Adelaide-based hand-dyed yarn studio established in September 2016. Inspired by a lifelong love of fibre arts, Nicole combines nearly four decades of knitting experience with a deep appreciation for colour to create vibrant, thoughtfully dyed yarns for knitters and makers.

Nicole began knitting almost 40 years ago, with crochet following soon after. Over time, her passion for working with yarn naturally evolved into dyeing it—allowing her to explore the endless possibilities of colour, texture, and fibre. Through Colagirl Collective, she enjoys experimenting with a wide range of natural fibres and dye techniques, carefully developing colourways that bring out the best qualities of each yarn base.

Each skein is dyed with creativity and care, designed to inspire makers and add something special to their projects. Nicole’s work celebrates both the artistry of colour and the joy of working with beautiful yarn.

When she isn’t dyeing yarn, Nicole is a wife, mum, devoted knitter, and an admirer of all things equine.

Thank you for taking the time to explore Colagirl Collective yarns. If one of the colourways inspires your next project, Nicole is truly grateful for your support.
