Not every dye day goes to plan. 🌿 These six were meant to be Jutland Rhubarb, but the colour had other ideas. They didn’t make it through quality control, so they’ve landed in the Second Skeins section of the webshop. 40% off and still perfectly good for your next project. 💪✨

Because sometimes the almost-perfect skeins deserve love too. 💚

Meet my very first assigned pooling yarn and it’s berry special!
I paired this playful colourway with a strawberry stitch, and watching those little berries pop up exactly where I wanted them feels like magic.

Available in my store through my website and Etsy later this week ✨

This is what happens when yarn and stitches dance together.

The sun is shining, the dye pots are bubbling, and I’m completely in love with mohair. ✨ There’s something about this fibre—its airy softness, the way it catches the light, the gentle halo that makes every stitch feel like a dream. Today’s batch is fresh from the pots, glowing in the sunlight, and I can’t wait to see it on the needles. ☁️💛

Mohair has a way of wrapping you in warmth without weight, of turning simple stitches into something ethereal. What’s your favourite thing about knitting with mohair?

Last week I showed you this gorgeous yarn by RMR Yarn Co. I've balled up the first skein, now to decide on what to knit with it.... 🤔

A vibrant dark pink ball of yarn, sitting on a white background, with a circular knitting needle sticking out of it.

#StashdiveSaturday This stunning yarn by @rmryarnco is the El Barney colorway on the Gloria Aran base. I must admit that I didn't capture the true richness of the color. In person, it has a lot more depth with a tad bluer hue. I don't know yet what this yarn wants to be when it grows up, Please do let me know if you have suggestions!

I started unpacking the parcel send to me by @rmryarnco. First up is this cute little bag! The large circle, with the RMR Yarn Co. logo, is actually a little mirror. I will put it in my purse, always handy to a little mirror with me. The smaller circle is a button 😃

A while back, I told you about the collaboration with RMR Yarn Co. Earlier this week the package with gorgeous yarn arrived! Soon, I’ll show you the lovelies that this package contains, which I’ll be using for a new shawl design 😃

I have exciting news: RMR Yarn Co. has become my Yarn Sponsor on Patreon, and we're collaborating on a new shawl design! The picture shown is just one of the gorgeous colorways available, so do visit https://rmryarnco.com/ to see the rest. I can't wait to get started on this new design 😃

Pale pink yarn with dark and bright speckles in red, pink, orange, green etc. One skein is shown twisted, the other untwisted on a light wooden background.

3 new versions of Assynt Storms on my Quinag base have gone up in the shop. Quinag is a 100% Bluefaced Leicester 4ply superwash wool, and each 100g hank contains approx 400m of yarn. I don't often do the Assynt Storms style of dyeing on the Quinag base, so if you like it, grab it!

2 hanks of yarn against a white background. One is twisted neatly with a label, the other lies loosely alongside it, showing the different colours in more detail. This colourway is a mix of blues and cream

Two new "Assynt Storms" colourways are up in the shop now. They are both on my Reliable Sock Yarn base which contains approx 420m of yarn and is made up of 75% wool and 25% nylon.

Any hank named Assynt Storms is dyed using a technique that results in a colourway that is unique and unrepeatable.

I don't do shade cards, simply because I have so many colours in my range, and colours look very different on different bases, so my shade card would be never ending and a constant chore to keep up to date. But I needed a few cards for a specific project, and they are pretty. I'll give them that.

Photo shows some shade cards of different coloured yarn. There are 2 cards, and the colours are written in pencil alongside the yarn sample.

First 2024 event applied for. It sometimes feels like the treadmill of show applications is endless!

Working on a super secret assignment, and it feels good to be analysing colour in such detail again. Breaking every colour up that I need to use, work out quantities precisely, while still maintaining a bit of artistic flair.

Working with one of my current favourite colours - Midnight at the Village Hall. So difficult to capture the intensity and deep shades in this variegated colour, but this got quite close. I'm using it as my main colour in my version of the pattern Pressed Flowers Pullover. My contrast is an orange/red shade, so I won't be missed when I'm wearing it.

Photo shows a hand holding a cake of yarn. It is a variegated, deep, intense midnight blue shade.

I've added colours in my Reliable Sock Yarn base to the shop today - including the 3 shown below which are Was That a Kingfisher? The Weathered Fairy Goes Swimming and The Greeness of Life. The yarn is 75% wool, 25% nylon to give it some extra strength for socks. Enjoy!
