Mood.

I love dyeing Willo-the-Wisp Lace. Silk and mohair take dye with such intensity, I keep having to stop to drink it in (not literally - don't drink the dye water, kids). It's the same when I'm knitting with it, which adds time to my knitting, but gives me much joy.

I've got some new custom blended fibre in stock. This is Kite Flying - a blend of Corriedale, Merino and mulberry silk. It's the most uplifting colour to spin - pops of pink silk really stand out from the rich turquoise. I absolutely love it.

I had to cancel my stand and workshop at the Big Flock (which I am VERY sad about) thanks to a nasty dose of ocular shingles. I do not recommend. Good luck everyone, especially @birdstreetuk, who have worked so very hard to bring this into being. You guys are amazing.

I honestly thought that you’d somehow got into my house and taken a photo of my cat.

It's only a few more weeks until #wonderwoolwales! I'm very excited to be exhibiting, and I'll be on stand N2 and I'll be bringing lots and lots of fibre with me, as well as sweater quantities of my #superherodk, #toastyaran and #rollingstonesock.

Come and say hello!

New colourway alert! This is Hummingbird – a rich mix of royal purple, turquoise, peacock blue and deep petrol blue – dyed onto my Polwarth/Shetland/Silk blend. I love dyeing jewel tones onto this base, because it takes dye so very beautifully, and with such depth of shade. It's quite captivating.

Sad sock alert! Alas, my very special Roseraie socks, which I designed and knitted in my lovely NON-SUPERWASH #RollingStone sock yarn, made it into the laundry basket this week. Their adventure in the washing machine (30 degrees) and tumble dryer, has left them feeling a little shrunken. 😭

I’ve taken the day off today to spend the morning at Bristol Lido with my lovely husband. It’s absolute bliss and the food is always spectacular. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Tregaron’s Daughter i was obsessed with this as a teenager. Mayhem, mystery, italian counts, brooding heroes, peril!

This is in the Lendrum right now. I’m going to go and ply it.

Look at this handsome beast. #allotmentlife #cat

I’ve been spinning up lots of samples lately. All new shop stuff. It’s been so much fun. #yarnspinning #handspinning #woollygoodness
