Have you been missing my Entanglement base? I am SO in love with the replacement, I have for it, Byte! It's the same 4 ply construction, with an 80/20 blend of US grown superwash merino and cashstyle nylon--cashstyle just means brushed, so it adds softness and loft to the yarn while retaining its most important property, adding longevity and durability to your finished projects!

I find that Byte has more bounce and more stretch than Entanglement had, making it a much better choice for projects like socks--it lends itself beautifully to a bouncy ribbing and makes for a nice squishy sole.

I just finished an entire sweater project with this yarn and it was an absolute joy. Even seaming didn't cause the yarn to fray or fuzz.

So, if you're looking for a new yarn base to try, why not give this one a shot? It's got 447 yds per 100g skein, so plenty for that sock project in just a single skein!

Today's agenda is finish winding Oenology and Fermentation, and start winding the Turing I finished dyeing last week.
Any requests for what I should put in the dye pots next?

From Wikipedia: Hydra is the largest of the 88 modern constellations, measuring 1303 square degrees, and also the longest at over 100 degrees. One myth associates it with a water snake that a crow served Apollo in a cup when it was sent to fetch water. Apollo saw through the fraud and angrily cast the crow, cup and snake into the sky.

Hydra is one of my favorite colorways. I've made several things with this colorway, including a Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend shawl and a sock head hat, pictures here.

Origami Animal Stitch Markers! I made small ring, large ring, and lobster claws, and I of course had to use square beads because origami is folded squares 😁
I spent a TON of time matching the seed beads to each individual charm and I'm pretty happy with how they came out.

These are up on the website now! All my stitch markers and earrings are buy 4, get the 5th free (online only).

I finished my sweater!!!!!!!!!

With the trials and tribulations (rewriting the sleeve increases, running out of yarn, dyeing more, but wrong, and then finally dyeing more of the correct colorway) this took way longer than it should have, but I am in LOVE! I am already planning another (or 2🤪)

I used 5 skeins of Diode in Byte, and a full skein of semisolid blue (also in Byte).

Pattern is Joyce Cardigan by Andi Satterlund
Mods: I made the bodyal and sleeves longer, I used a semi solid for the button bands and cuffs, and I made the top of the sleeves wider

If you want to make one like this and need a semi solid dyed, I am always open for custom orders of full skeins of solids upon request!
