Kas Carpet Yarn Dyers

We’ve been here on Station Road for a long time now. Most days it’s just us working with the yarn and getting the colors right for the carpets. It’s messy work sometimes, but we’ve got a routine that works for everyone. The machinery isn't new but it does what it's supposed to. We spend a lot of our time checking the dye vats and making sure things aren't sitting too long. People around here know where we are because of the sign near the tracks. It’s not a fancy place, just a workspace where we get things done day in and day out. Sometimes the weather makes the drying take longer than we'd like, which is always a bit of a headache. We just handle whatever comes in and try to keep the workflow steady. It’s quiet enough most mornings until the machines start up. We don't really do much besides the dying. That's our main thing. We keep the shop floor as organized as we can, though with all the yarn moving around, it’s a constant task. If you walk down Station Road, you’ll probably smell the dye before you see the building. It’s just how it is. We aren't trying to be anything big, just a local spot doing the work we know how to do. Most of us have been here for years, so we know the rhythms of the place pretty well. We just take it day by day.
