It’s so funny how every single time when I dye my Jutland Rhubarb, halfway the process I go ‘nah, this can’t be right!’ And each time everything comes together in the end. This colourway truly blooms when all the colours merge. Anyway, restocking soon! #yarn #knitting #crochet #sockknitting #handdyedwool #handdyedsockyarn #merinowool

It’s time to pause the winter knitting ❄️!
Will continue this merino wool scarf after summer ☀️!

Tässä oli niin monta ekaa kertaa, joista ehkä merkittävin se, että testasin ketjukertaamista ekaa kertaa. Ja hauskin se, että testasin Ashfordin Kiwi3 -rukkia, johon tykästyin kovasti.

Tämä on sitä samaa villaa, josta jaoin värjäyskuvan joskus aiemmin.

Villalankaa, jossa väri vaihtelee pinkistä violetin eri sävyihin.

Sateisella terassilla villalankaa, jonka väri vaihtelee pinkistä violetin eri sävyihin.

I have a new design on the needles for my youngest—who isn’t so young anymore. Time flies, and the kids grow up so fast!

It’s a long-sleeved sweater with an interesting detail on the collar, cuffs, and ribbing. I’m knitting it in #EasyCare merino wool by @Mayflower, in the color Powder 🩷 Perfect for the coming spring.

The knitting pattern will be available on www.woolwolfknits.com later this spring!

Working with the softest pure merino wool I have ever felt! Divine colours, too - this reminds me of the prettiest Australian native bird, the galah. From Leahcim Wool in South Australia.

A cake of soft pink and grey yarn sits with lace knitting in the same yarn on circular needles, all in a yellow, black and green striped basket.

A pink and grey galah on a branch lifts its wings and crest, while fixing the camera with one beady eye.

@saiga in onze jaren-'70 rottende betonnen blok was vorige winter de verwarming ook stuk. Deze winter is het er ook gewoon niet warm te stoken boven de 3de verdieping. Dekentjes, sjaals, skibroeken horen bij m'n werkkledij (mijn werk zit tussen bureau en niet geklimatiseerd labo).
Hertoginnedal is niet het enige onverwarmde overheidsgebouw :/
#MerinoWool is mijn tweede huid.

A scarf my friend commissioned me to knit. She wanted long, luxurious and soft. Do you think I nailed it?! It’s made with 100% superwash merino wool.

Just picked up some gorgeous 8-ply merino wool for my next project! 🧶 The softness is incredible, and I can't wait to see how it turns out. There's nothing like working with quality yarn to spark creativity.✨

Good morning from Minneapolis. We've clawed our way to Friday!

I have the day off walking our friends' dog so I'm lounging around the house in my merino wool, an industry that wouldn't be where it is today were it not for the Australian kelpie.

As @HopelessDemigod has cited, "Mornings are for coffee and contemplation."

Very Dry:

#mnwx #MerinoWool #AustralianKelpies

Snippet of the Area Forecast Discussion as displayed in a screenshot of a graphical weather station display:

"it`s the icing potential that led us to issuing a Winter Weather Advisory for Friday night into Saturday along and south of a line from Redwood Falls to the Twin Cities metro. This initial issuance of the advisory was drawn for counties where we have ice accumulations in excess of 0.03" and therefore have the greatest potential for getting a little glaze of ice on roads. We left the Eau Claire area out, since as you go east, precipitation will be arriving later in the day on Saturday, with warmer temperatures likely limiting winter weather impacts there."

I'm sorry if this offends some people, but when I wear my good socks, my #darntough #merinowool #socks I wear them two days in a row.

I take them off while I sleep and turn them inside out. Then in the morning I flip them back and put them on.

Yes this is a habit from #hiking and no I won't stop. They're very nice and I don't have enough of them in winter.

Another birthday gift is stitched. This is the *free* Sunday V-neck (https://fridaypatterncompany.com/blogs/blog/free-pattern-the-sunday-v-neck). Thanks to #FridayPattern for their generosity. I like the curve on the raglan sleeve. #sewing #MerinoWool

V-neck t-shirt in two small checked/plaid fabrics that are similar in design size, different in coloration. Blue and white checks form the sleeves and collar band while the body is blue and tan with a hint of a red stripe.

Finally! The merino vest is done. I'm particularly happy with the inner pocket detail of contrasting merino. I'll carry on with wool on the next project, a light stretch merino with 3% Spandex. The woolens are destined for one of my Colorado kids. #sewing #MerinoWool

On the left is a navy plaid vest with a mandarin collar. The right hand photo shoes the inside pocket detail, a contrasting light blue plaid.

Details, details. I've spent time matching the plaid on this merino vest. The basted collar is cut on the bias so no obvious matching there. Taking my inspiration from @elfkin, I am finishing the exposed seams with binding. #sewing #MerinoWool As always, thanks to the great sewing community here on Mastodon!

Details of blue wool plaid project. The left shows a basted collar, button loop, big blue button. On the right is a seam finished with bias tape.

Call on #NIKE to make sure that any #MerinoWool used in their products isn't sourced from sheep subjected to the cruelty of #mulesing

Mulesing is a barbaric practice that involves cutting off large skin folds around the buttocks of young lambs, often without adequate pain relief

No lambs should be mutilated for fashion

Call on NIKE to join the growing number of companies that have committed to going mulesing-free

Current #Knitting project, the vacillate stole in #MerinoWool , #cashmere , #silk , and sparkle. It's been a fun and easy one!

A piece of knitted material in gray, blue, green, and brown featuring a pattern of stripes and chevrons

I’ve been wearing #Merino wool ever since the dry cleaner closed at the beginning of the pandemic. Very comfortable, easy to maintain, and lots of compliments. I’m not going back!
