My variegated colorways are a labor of love! They take extra time to make because of all the layers of color so I always do them in big batches! They’re the hardest to make and I love them the most! Shown here: Rebel Rebel, Heartbreaker, and Season of the Witch.

And I’ve got a new one in the works, but it still needs some tweaking. Dyeing this is hard, but designing them is even harder!

Happy Tour De Fleece to those who participate! I’ve been spinning away on these hots days while I give my hands a break from too much knitting it June. I’m finishing up this gorgeous 8 oz spin of Candy Mountain on Polwarth (I think 🤔) from Created by Elsie B dyed fibers! I cannot wait to see these colors plied together- this is going to be such a fun yarn!

Are you spinning for ?

I’m just a reminder that there are no shop hours this week! Why? For like a million reasons but the most important being this- I need some sit outside time and since this week is too damn hot for the dye kitchen and there is a holiday then why the heck not?

The website is always open and I’m still shipping as usual.

Ps check your email for the July COTM reveal. 💕

Shop hours will resume next week!

Summer Shop Hours are officially in effect! I’ll be at the studio from 12-4 today so come on in and get your June Color of the Month!

Next week, July 1st-4th there will be no shop hours with the holiday and I need to deep clean after getting heat pumps installed.

Online will not be affected, just no shop hours.

After that it’s smooth sailing- Thursday and Friday’s 10-3 and Saturdays 12-4 and of as always appointments are ALWAYS welcome if you’re coming through outside of shop hours- just shoot me a text!

I will be doing a making night on Wednesdays from 3-6. I don’t have an official start date set as I have to beef up the lounge area but stay tuned for that announcement!

There’s only a few days left to get your June Color of the Month on Wisteria! Available now until the end of June on Nimble Sock, Plush Single, and Plush DK.

Also there is some Hydrangea tucked in there which is available in the dyed to order section of the website, but I’ve been known to keep some skeins around in the shop!
