I have discovered a life cheat-code!

If you buy yarn/fiber and then WAIT 10 (+) years, knitting your own sweaters makes economic sense!

I was looking at some nice sweaters for sale and... Several were actually more than a sweater worth of fancy handdyed yarn (was, 10 years ago). 🧶

Woven a simple scarf over the last couple of days using handspun, hand dyed wool and alpaca.
Will be on sale at #YarniesAtTheFlaxmill in #Shrewsbury on Saturday on the Guild of Spinners, Weavers and Dyers table.

Like it isn’t just that my personal preference is color, it’s the way certain zeitgeists are moving against handdyed yarn, patterns that don’t also have tutorials (patterns are not there to teach you to knit, GET A BOOK), patterns that are interesting or funky or more recipe-based.

Chonky skeins, this came to 355g and handspun in DK weight. No idea what to make with it yet, do it goes into storage. Made from handdyed fleece and commercial tops, and drumcarded also with wool left over from our local mills. It’s an upcycled mishmash! #handspunyarn

Prepping for a mermaid coloured spinning session. Mostly alpaca, some handdyed merino fleece, and really old fibre stash from Bendigo Woollen Mills #fibreprep #drumcarder.

I'd also like to give a shoutout to www.theweeyarncompany.com who makes absolutely best use of bouclé: he carries it as a lace quality that is intended for combining with a second strand to form a DK or worsted yarn🧶

TA DA! Finished in no time. Six little wreaths with velvet ribbons. I used a handspun, hand dyed wool from La Lana Wools that I carefully stored for decades.

Directions in the first comment. 🧶🪡🎄

Tonight, I got it off the needles, and I wove in all the ends, but I still need to wash it and block the ever loving bejesus out of it. But it's almost 10 pm so it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

This month’s subscription from #TheSheepyShire arrived today!! Below are pics of the inspiration photo and the resulting yarn. Can’t wait to create something amazing from this! #HandDyed #Yarn #IndieDyers 🧶
Inspiration pic is the striped rock formations of the Arizona desert. Mauve, dusty rose, cream, purple, sand. The yarn perfectly reflects the colors of the inspiration pic and has subtle speckles

Another finished project! I had to get this one done, because I had already embroidered the date on it. 😆

I got through the fifth chart and the fifth decrease row, so now I'm down to 277 stitches per row from the original cast on of 547. Four more charts to go.

My Let It Snow cowl is done and all ends are woven! It's super cosy and comfy. I love it! 🧶

#crochetsky #crochet #interlockingcrochet #crochetersofbluesky #handdyed #indieyarn #moonlightfibre #yarnsky #finishedobject
An interlocking crochet cowl with a repeating pattern of rows of crosses and boxes. The main colour, so the colour outlining the crosses and boxes, is white. Each pattern repeat is worked in a different colour to form a gradient: from bottom up, neon pink, violet, purple-violet, light blue, aqua light blue, then the same in reverse.

Decided to wind the yarn I got to knit socks. for my sister Sam. Her favorite colors are yellow & red. So far, I’ve focused on yellow. Notes are in alt. #Yarn 🧶 #HandDyed #IndieDyers #EvergreenYarnStudio #ThreadsByMegannicole
These are both by Evergreen Yarn Studio. Front is Solar Eclipse (yellow, fuchsia, orange, black, and white) and back is Lemon Drop. Solar Eclipse, Lemon Drop, and Good Vibes (yellow, fuchsia, orange, and purple) also from Evergreen Yarn Studio that I already had on hand. Scorch from Threads By Megannicole. This one is a 70/20/10 wool/nylon/cashmere blend so it will be knit by itself.

No.
This would have been great a few years ago. Now it's not enough, as addressed to white cis straight ablebodied women who can afford sweater quantities of handdyed yarn (and who aren't single moms).
The only thing I agree about is that yes, spending energy carefully. But the way this is written

Last month, when I was making socks for my sisters the main colorway was from Evergreen Yarn Studio in Washington state. When we got back I ordered these. They’re due to arrive Monday. #Yarn #IndieDyer #HandDyed 🧶
Clockwise from the top left: Prickly Pear-brightly contrasting pinks and green with white and black Pink pop tonal-highlighter neon pink Lemon Drop-highlighter neon yellow Solar Eclipse- The same yarn base as prickly pear with the bits of black and it’s bright pink, orange, and yellow. Steph’s favorite color is pink and Sam’s favorite color is yellow. So eventually these will be for them.

This is one of the 50g braids of handdyed fibre I bought a while ago for a quick spin. This one is a very skinny single.
