Took my unblocked Abby’s scarf on a little bird watching stroll with my kiddos this morning! And look! It matches my most favorite hat!

This scarf was designed by Bridget of BZBeeKnits and is releasing next month! The hat is my Toto Worsted Hat available on Ravelry!

What do you wear on your walks?

Two lovely handspun yarns destined to become a new Loro Cowl!

Yarn details: 2-ply, worsted spun from batts made from @mellyknits.bsky.social True North guts
Pattern is available in my Ravelry shop!

Got a nice start on the #Scrapalong2025 today! This will be a Toto Worsted Hat by @bebopandknit.bsky.social in some leftovers of Woolfolk Får (I’m still mad at how much it catches on things for how expensive it is, but it will be a soft warm hat for sure).

This beyond delightful spin is half over and I’m an emotional burrito of excited and sad it’ll be done soon!

“Woodland Walk” on BFL dyed by my dear friend Kim of @moss-and-fern.bsky.social

Hey, we made a starter pack!

Here are all the sheep farms we've found here so far, follow them to learn where your wool comes from - and for cute lamb photos!

We'll keep adding accounts, so if we've missed anyone please let us know. 🧶

And begins the fiber update control card stamping!

Our little family business is growing and I can’t wait to share more!

Feeling very seen by my thoughtful son. He’s just the best. New notions bag (knitting stuff bag as he likes to say) and this fun sticker for my spinning journal.

Lets do it! A Knitalong to get the community going here on @bsky.app!

Start something new (or pick up an old project) using blue yarn, any shade and use the #SkyKAL hashtag to post progress or finished projects. We will let it roll until the end of February. To keep things simple. See comments…

Dreaming up my first fully handspun sweater…and wow, this dream is lovely 😍

All I need to do is spin my main color. More on that later. For now, I’ll just be staring at these skeins…and dreaming.

The joy I have found processing fleece, blending batts, and connecting with a new side of this fiber craft has been a dream.

This batt is 50/50 CVM and Shetland, with a dash of sari silk! Can’t wait to spin up a sample!

And guess what?! Coming March, these batts could be yours to spin too.
