2026 flax planting is a success! Do I wish I'd planted earlier? Yeah, but it's working out fine. It's been about 2weeks and there's some nice growth already. The pot next to my feet has a nice bush of sage that will go in my front flower beds to feed bees and other pollinators this summer, then give me material for a gorgeous yellow dye in the fall.

I used a rolling planter my daughter built about 6yrs ago so she could have a moveable garden and take it with her wherever she goes. Unfortunately it couldn't go with her this year so she told me to go ahead and use it.

I purchased 4oz of "Avian" flax seed (imported from The Netherlands) from in Pennsylvania. I used half of them in this box. For the flax newcomers, Anita, the farm and shop owner, includes a thorough explanation of how to plant, harvest, and properly ret your flax, plus pointers for processing into linen thread/yarn. I still have my dried flax from three years ago hanging out in my house. Maybe I'll combine the two when it's time to process it.

Finally, what are the sticks for, you may wonder? To discourage birds from eating my seeds and to keep squirrels from digging in the planter. Jerks. As you can see, it mostly works 😅

*Newsflash! I'll return to the Athens Farmers Market this Saturday May 16 with the Athens Art Guild, 9am to Noon!*

I've been absent for the last month as I recover from a double hernia repair surgery. That recovery included a 10lb weight lifting restriction that I'm starting to increase -water is very heavy, in case you didn't know 😂

I am being very careful as I ease back into my work, so if you need some yarn for a project, please come see what I've got!

If you like my Jacob yarn, come check out this triple skein Red White and Blue set I pulled together! Perfect for a patriotic shawl or cardigan in color blocks, stripes, or a fade! I'm working on a set of new colorways in my DK merino that I hope you'll enjoy - stay tuned for those as they will be available in the next couple of weeks. See you soon!

I've curated some Jacob wool yarn sets that you might like for a sweater (Rhinebeck?), hat, scarf, cowl, or shawl! 

I'm bringing back my Patriot colorway to celebrate our country's Independence in 1776.  This blue-grey-red version has that old timey look to it, and you can get it with a darker red for a more vintage look. 

A colorway I dye for fall is also represented here, Summer's End with a deep warm green, golden yellow, and crisp orange for a cozy project. 

I also realized I have a very vintage 80s double combo of a dark teal and my dusky pink Memaw's Parlor mauve colorway, if you're looking for something fun!

My Ohio University "OU, Oh Yeah!" colorway with grey yarn instead of white, would make a lovely hat and scarf set for you or your future (or current) Bobcat to wear at football or hockey games next year.

These and several other suggestions are going online this evening. Head to my Linktree in my bio for the links you need 😊

I will have some red skeins of my Jacob wool yarn, a cozy non-superwash yarn, available at the farmers market this weekend on Saturday morning 9:00 a.m. to noon. Buy one for your hat making needs! If demand is there, I will dye some more next week. Link to the pattern for the Melt Ice hat is in my Linktree in my bio ❤️

I have all my floss wound up and organized by fiber type and color! I hope to have new colors added by spring. Not all of these are on my website, but I'll be at the indoor farmers market this Saturday!

INSIDE the Athens Community Center, you'll find most of the farmers and lil ol' me slinging yarn and thread for you! Grab some Jacob yarn while you can, quantities are limited for most colors.

Hey everyone! I am tentatively planning to be at market Saturday, but if the weather is bad, I'll have to stay home 😭 That means three Saturdays in a row of lost income. Instead of worrying about bills, I spent the last three days working on my website!

If you're looking for yarn to get you through the upcoming winter storm and beyond, please use the link here or in my bio: https://seohiofiberworks.square.site/

I just updated my site to reflect current yarn stock and made it functional. Be aware that out of stock items are still listed so you can consider placing a special order for any favorite sold out colorways. I will ship orders, or if you live nearby, you can schedule a time to pickup your order at my home - or at market!

If you can help me out, I would be grateful, and I know you will make something beautiful!

See you next week - weather permitting! If you need any yarn or floss before my next pop-up, please reach out! I'm always happy to accommodate a sale.
