Still working with yarn but using it as embroidery thread to embellish a straw hat I bought in a charity shop. Embroidery isn’t my strong point, but if you squint it doesn’t look too bad!Now it’s finished, it’s ready for some sunshine adventures. ✨🌿🌸☀️🌸🌿✨.

Look at these slices of woolly heaven ✨🐑✨from lovely Lora @spinjones …..a little self treat for me 😊. I was powerless to resist these little batts and they are even prettier ✨🧶✨ in real life. For now though they are pets, stroked and admired whilst I hatch a plan for them.

Equinox off my super silent wheel ✨🌀✨a mix of my Albion British blends and Massam. Jen @wee.chickadee spun a lovely yarn from Massam last week and inspired me to try it too ✨🐏✨.
I don’t have any more of this colour on Albion but I do on BFL seacell on Etsy and one Massam on Folksy.

The small yarn mountain ready for @thesodburyyarnover ✨🧶✨. Twisted, labelled, packed . Now to panic about the rest of it. Oh and I spent part of my day being a car mechanics assistant, Oggy needed a new shock absorber ✅. Shall I paint the house as well? 😆. Ask a busy person syndrome currently.

Blossom ✨🌸✨ coming with me to @thesodburyyarnover this time next week ✨🧶✨

I’m currently barely visible above the mounds of fibre and yarns that need labelling.

So excited for next week, please find me and say hello if you’re coming. I’m in the Old Grammar School venue where the alpacas 🦙 are too.

Yarn noodles for the ever growing crochet jacket…..it’s definitely going to be sleeveless at this rate of devouring yarn ✨🧶✨. And why are Franken yarns so damn pretty when you can’t reproduce them?
