Barker Wool

Home of the original Assigned Pooling yarns and patterns, plus beautiful color collections on luxurious bases.

I’m Dawn Barker, a fine artist and fiber lover who fell headlong down the rabbit hole of dying fine yarn. My lifelong passion for color dynamics and love of knitwear design led me to create a line of high quality, small batch hand-dyed yarn in an array of deeply saturated colors. I believe that beauty should go beyond the skein. I use bright speckles and subtly shifting tonals dyed on an array of luxurious bases to provide a platform for you to create beautifully wearable knitwear.
