I came across a bunch of my photos of yarns from @allisonbarnesyarn.bsky.social and felt wildly nostalgic for the days I spent capturing new shop stock. Her colours are 🤩 and 😍 with a bit of 💥.

I’m feeling sooooo much better today. 💪

Started a new sweater. Tata Matilda by marziasknit. The striping colour is my handspun yarn spun from a braid of “Campfire Nights” on 100% targhee from @craftythatway.bsky.social
The light peach colour is a lighter version of “Curiosity” on 80% Targhee/20% alpaca from Rosebud River Fibre Mill.

Learn to dye yarn at home. I’ll hold your hand while you learn to dye yarn. My videos are easy to follow and come in either English with captions, or English with French subtitles.

Pick up some bare yarn and dyes available on my website, and download my videos to get started dyeing your own! #dyer

I have two: eyeshadow and yarn.

You know that shawl I’m working on? I finished the skein, but I didn’t finish the shawl.

Currently knitting the Spring Thing shawl. I’ll be cutting my hair soon and will need to keep my neck warm.
