Vix is the Nottingham dyer behind Velvet Sixpence. The shop specializes in semi-solid colors on wool and wool/silk blends. Colors are quite nice in both the semi-solids and the variegated fiber. Although Vix warns that sometimes shop inventory is low, at this writing, there’s a lot to see. Velvet Sixpence is currently shipping only to the UK.
