 From Hannah, founder of Circus Tonic Handmade: Circus Tonic Handmade was formed in 2014 after a break from many years studying molecular biology and working in the field of genomics. Having been a maker and collector as a child my collections past and present, love of natural history, colour and community come together on a daily basis dyeing knitting yarn that travels the world. So much of the joy starts in the inspiration for the colours and my focus on Australian native birds has sparked a real interest and sentimentality within my customers. The planning, prepping and slow methodical work of a dyer is very reminiscent of old laboratory days so it suits me down to the ground. At this point, my love of the knitting and yarn community seems to know no bounds!

Even in Australian conditions, Smooth Rolling Skin (SRS) Merino are not prone to fly strike so mulesing is unnecessary.
