Our Team

Hi! I’m Amy, and I dye pretty yarn.

My favorite number is three. I have three kids, three dogs, and it’s just always been that lucky number. Tulips are my absolute favorite flower, so “Three Tulips” seemed like a natural name for this little business born from a passion for color and, of course, for sock yarn.

I’ve been knitting for the last 18 years, but I haven’t always been able to spend my days experimenting with yarn. My time to knit came between raising my kids and working as a dental hygienist full-time, and socks became a favorite because they’re the perfect portable project.

When COVID-19 hit our area hard, I stepped away from the office and found opportunities to explore and learn more about fiber, color theory, spent time teaching and mentoring other local sock knitters, and really rediscovered the joy that comes from that one dreamy skein.

I love the idea of micro-batched yarn. Like unique wine or microbrewed beer that’s so popular these days, the colors you see here now may (or may not) come back around…and that’s the beauty of it. It means that I can keep playing, learning, and imagining possibilities - and so can you. Thanks for getting to know me, and I’m so excited to see what you create!
