Welp, I kind of forgot about this app for a minute 🙈

But I did want to share the results from our 1st PLY Quarterly Fiber Club.

This quarter was the Hue Issue, and I spun up our new Shaniko Confetti base. 400yds, 2 Ply fingering weight.

Next installment opens tomorrow.

I did a thing that I’m proud of. I have a featured article in the most recent issue of @plymagazine.bsky.social 🥲

I seek whether or not it’s possible to dye and spin roving to match a handdyed skein of yarn.

Check out the Hue issue, available now!

What’s your favorite method for small circumference knitting? I prefer magic loop, but need to give 9” circs another go.
I get asked alot about colorwork sock yarn floats and how to manage them at the needle ends if you’re knitting with DPN’s or Magic Loop method, so I’ve made a quick video tutorial on it youtube.com/shorts/HD0j-...

This plane departed from Wichita. My heart aches for the friends/family aboard this flight.

Our first EVER fiber club!

I thought it would be fun to dye fiber based off PLY Magazine’s mood board & receive the fiber the same time as your magazine.

Details are in the listing link below. Please tag your fiber loving friends!

Okay, I know it’s been ALL natural dye stuff so far, but LOOK!!! Experimented botanically dyeing some silk scrunchies yesterday, and I love every design we tested. 🌸

2025 is hopefully the year of clearing out some languishing WIPs and crushing a few cool projects from stash 😎

Welp, we’re just rolling with it. Still a pretty peachy color. I’ll show final results after they’re steamed & dried.

My avocado dye is leaning a little more orange even though I brought up the ph to 8. 🤷‍♀️ Anyone have any thoughts? Used frozen pits/skins.
