Is A Holding Cabinet The Right Choice For Your Yarn Dyeing Business?

If you've an indie yarn dyer, you may have considered investing in a holding cabinet to speed up your dyeing process. Or maybe you’ve just found yourself wondering what all the hype is about. 

Either way, you're in the right place. 

As a yarn dyer myself, I understand that the decision to invest in a major piece of equipment can be both exciting and a tad (okay, maybe more than a tad) confusing. But fear not, because I'm here to guide you through the process and help you make the best choice for your business.

As the creative mind behind Hypnotic Yarn and the hand dyed yarn subscription, Yarnable, I've been on this yarn dyeing journey for many years. In my business, we dye and ship over 2000 skeins of yarn every single month. I know firsthand the challenges and triumphs of getting it all done as quickly and efficiently as possible while maintaining the highest quality standards.

I've poured my knowledge and expertise into a comprehensive guide that demystifies the world of holding cabinets (or sometimes incorrectly referred to as ‘proofers’) - those tall oven-esque things you may have seen larger yarn dyers using to heat set mass quantities of yarn all at once.

Let me walk you through all the key features to consider when selecting the perfect holding cabinet for your yarn dyeing needs. From insulation to pan depths, wire slides, and more, I'll provide you with essential insights to ensure you're equipped with the right knowledge to make an informed decision.

This guide is a must-have resource for any yarn dyer looking to invest wisely and achieve stunning, consistent results. As an added bonus, I've also included direct links to the exact equipment we use every single dye day at Hypnotic Yarn and Yarnable!
