Trying to select a random color palette is harder than it looks. 😂

I fell in love with the Mixtape Tee by and knew we needed a North Bay Fiber version 😍 It’s such a fun design—and such a great project for playing with color and using up those little bits of leftover yarn.

Our friend Karen Preiss is going to help us knit up a shop sample in BayHouse Fi*****ng, so I pulled out ALL the colors and started mixing and matching.

The idea is to be random…but that has proven to be difficult for me. 😂 I keep wanting the colors to feel unexpected while still somehow looking cohesive.

I think I’ve landed on a palette. What do you think? Random, but cohesive? 🤔🌈

I’m super excited to see this sample come together!

📣 Show your spirit with some back-to-school knitting! 🧶

Fresh off our needles: the Sis Boom Bah Cowl + Go Team Go Hat, two of my older patterns knit in our local school colors—even customized with our school name and mascot! 💚🤍

Our sample is knit in North Bay Fiber BayHouse Fi*****ng and it's just perfect for this pattern. If you'd like to cast on for one, with over 50+ colors we are sure to have the combination you are looking for!

Both patterns are available on Ravelry.

🏈 It’s almost kickoff to football season!

The Night & Day Cowl by Andrea Mowry / / is such a great two-color blank slate for showing a little team spirit—and you know we had to knit ours in colors inspired by our favorite team—Go Lions! 💙🩶🦁

Our sample is knit in North Bay Fiber BayHouse DK in Hudson + Steelhead, and with football season right around the corner, we thought it was time to bring the Night & Day Cowl Kits back!

We’ve put together a lineup of two-color kits inspired by some of your favorite teams. Each kit includes 4 skeins of BayHouse DK—2 skeins of each color—everything you need yarn-wise to knit your own Night & Day Cowl.

And if you don’t see your team colors? Choose the Custom Kit option! With 50+ colors of BayHouse DK, we can help you put together your perfect pairing.

Cast on now and get game-day ready! 🏈🧶

I found this hiding in a project bag—and now I can’t stop thinking about it. 🧶

The kids started school this week, and while getting everyone ready over the weekend, I stumbled across my Owen Sweater WIP. I had completely forgotten about it all summer!🫣

Needless to say, it went right back on my needles. The yoke is officially finished, and now I’m on a mission to get this one done.

Isn’t this yoke so pretty?! I absolutely love this color combination. ❤️🩷🤎

The Owen Sweater has always been a favorite of mine, so it feels like the perfect pattern for a little - revisiting some of my older designs and giving them a fresh look in North Bay Fiber yarn.

Now… onto the body!

As promised… new North Bay Fiber ice-dyed hats will be hitting the website very soon! 🧊🌈✨

I’m back in the dye studio creating another small batch, and one of my favorite parts of ice dyeing is that you never quite know how each piece is going to turn out. Every hat is completely one of a kind!

A limited collection of hats, along with a few ice-dyed totes, will be available online soon. 👀

And if watching this makes you want to try ice dyeing yourself… I may have just listed another Ice Dye Workshop under the Classes tab on our website. 😉

I came back a day late from Sleeve Island…but I made it nonetheless! 🧶🏝️🙌🏻

My third Outsider is complete, and I love the subtle, beautiful tones of this version. BayDrift in Beachcombed paired with BayHouse DK in Sand Point creates the softest coastal palette—subtle, beautifully textured, and so easy to wear. It’s going to look fantastic with a favorite pair of jeans! 👖
