About Robin's Nest

You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never be hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, And live like it's heaven on earth.

Welcome to the nest

Hello and thank you for stopping in to the Nest.

Robin’s Nest Fiber Arts is a small family run business located in Ketchikan, Alaska. We ship worldwide!

Robin’s Nest Fiber Arts was born in 2015 out of my love for knitting and the beautiful colors of Ketchikan. I started dyeing yarn because I was working at a Yarn Store in Ketchikan, and we had so many requests for hand dyed yarn that Robin’s Nest Fiber Arts was born. I started out small with my daughter Caitybug, she would take pictures around Ketchikan for dyeing inspiration. She is my biggest helper from helping dye yarn to finding inspiration in nature, Disney, Books and all our favorite things for new color combinations and designs.

In 2018 my Business partner, Nancy Elkins and I bought the yarn store we worked at, Fabulous Fiber Arts in Ketchikan, which gave me a bigger love of all things yarn and color. Over the past few years we have expanded with our Sock and Accessory Club with another Alaskan Dyer, Raven Frog Fibers. 

I have continued to grow my yarn dyeing business and am excited to start branching out into other venues.  Blaine, my husband, joined the team this year, truly making Robin’s Nest Fiber Arts a family run business. Whenever you open an order, know that it was Blaine and Caitybug that loving packed your order!

I love my team and I hope you will enjoy your yarn that has been created for you. 

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us!
