It’s about to get moooody over here!
Gonna wind up and cast on The Frosted Stitch’s colorway Maelstrom on Winter Worsted.

After a week like the one I had, some moody (but simple) stitching is exactly what I need.

Are ya knitting or crocheting this weekend?!

Two skeins of hand dyed wool yarn are held up before a bookshelf. The skeins are dyed in moody blacks, greens and blues while the overall image is bright and inviting.

My First Tour de Fleece is a wrap! 🐑💫
I spun 6 oz of a Fossil Fibers gradient on the drop spindle, and started this beautiful BFL braid on my spinning wheel. 🧶

I split this braid into 14(ish?) looooong strips to experiment with shorter color repeats.

A close up of a bobbin on a flyer of a spinning wheel with green house plants in the background. Around the bobbin is the start of a new spin of very thin yarn in greens, teals and browns. A braid of BFL wool roving is wound in a spiral on a board. The roving is hand dyed in browns, teals and greens. Little bundles of BFL wool roving lay on a deck waiting to be hand spun into yarn. Some are in the sunlight and others are in the shade. They dyed in are browns, teals, greens and creams. A hand dyed and spindle spun gradient of mini skeins of yarn lay on a deck railing. They range in color from blues on the left through purple, red, orange, yellow and into cream on the right. A greenhouse and hillside are in the distance.

💫Tour de Fleece Day 15

I would love for input (validation or correction!) from more seasoned yarn spinners!

I used to be seriously anti-plying-ball for use in spinning a 2 ply yarn on a drop spindle, but over the course of this TdF, here is what I’ve learned:

A hand holds a drop spindle and two balls of hand spun yarn in the sunlight. They have a blue triple moon tattoo on their wrist. A hand holds a hand spun ball of blue yarn and a drop spindle with a cop of purple and blue plyed yarn in the sunlight. A close up of one corner of a kniddy-knoddy with a mini skein of hand spun 2ply yarn wound around it. The skein shows reds, blues and purples and is held in the morning sun. And hand holds a mini skein of 2 ply yarn in a shadow of a porch railing. The skein is red, blue and purple and the hand has a blue triple moon tattoo on the wrist. Blurry, and in the background, the kniddy-knoddy used to wind the skein can be seen on the porch floor. Sunlight and shadow show the porch railing

The Bluster Biased Scarf is back 🌾🧶
This simple, cozy knitting pattern just got a new sample in The Frosted Stitch’s colorway Abandoned (But Loved), a mustard that looks like sunshine and summer grass (but won’t give you allergies 😘).

And she is on sale!

A partially wound ball off cream colored yarn is in the foreground with kinky strands of yarn that have recently been pulled out of a knitting project piled on top. Behind it are a coffee cup with blue swirls, three other balls of yarn in blue, yellow and rainbow colors. The table top is infront of a large window.

Tour De Fleece Day 11 💫

Actually this video is from day 8 or 9 but I was lost in this craziness and didn’t share 😆

I have 2oz left to spin and I’ll have the most lovely gradient yarn set! What shall I knit with it?!

This started as a 6oz BFL fade from @fossilfibers 🧶
#tourdefleece #knitsky
A gradient of wool that fades from blue to cream to gold to red and into purple lay on a table. Some of the wool are blue roving braids near the bottom of the image, some roving has been divided, cream hand spun yarn on a drop spindle is in the center of the gradient and hand spun and plied skeins of yarn in golds and reds near the top.

When my yarn matches the Land I become so inspired! 🌾🧶✨

What magic in hand dyed yarn! I’m stitching high-desert summer into every row with @thefrostedstitch.bsky.social's
colorway Abandoned (But Loved).

I'm knitting that part of summer when green dries to gold& the air *smells* warm.

I blocked my Bellingham Bay Shawl for the first time in 5 years and she grew five inches deeper and TEN inches in wingspan 🤣🙌🏼
Block your knitwear y’all!

Now you can totally see the sail boats and waves in the rain along the bottom edge! 🥹⛵️💕

I spun very little yarn but I did sew patches on my kiddo’s favorite pants so he could keep wearing them.
I call that a crafty win.

Anyone else spinning along with Tour De Fleece? I have a gradient from @fossilfibers.bsky.social and since Saturday have spun on my drop spindle at the ocean, in the mountains and my cozy back yard so it’s been quite a journey 😆

Today feels like one of those days that should include dipping cookies in our coffee while knitting socks. 🧶
A hand thrown sage green coffee cup, a pot of succulents and a rusty red sock knitting project rest on a porch railing. Behind them the sky is wildly blue as it welcomes the sun and the rolling hills are bathing in the morning light.
