This year’s version of poinsettia has a particularly deep rich red and three different green dyes delicately speckled so that you still get a pretty snowy white background visible. I deliberately never do it the same way twice because I love handmade.

Yesterday I had the day off work (had to use up my annual leave for the year) so I made myself this scarf! I was surprised that I finished it in one day, but pleasantly so.

Look at him being all rational! 😂 😳 I’m delighted to say that this colourway has triggered at least one man so far, who didn’t realise it is called after something another man said to me online, ‘Men Are Rational.’ 😂 Basically, some guys can trigger themselves with their own “arguments” if yarn naming is used as a mirror device!

Crocheted some simple drinks coasters, just need to tuck the ends in to finish them off.

The yarn is a mixture of recycled cotton and recycled synthetic fibres and is 100% recycled. The yarn is slightly thicker than what I normally use for stuff so is pretty ideal for coasters.

Kinda basic I know, but they'll work good. May make different coloured sets of 4 to sell.

I always think stuff will look bendy but these are pretty flat 👌

Made some scarves. I intended to make them all the same length, however I was running out of the right colours and someone gave me the idea of just attaching a toggle. I think I made them into a thing called a 'shrug' or 'shoulder rug.'

I was intending for everything I made to be from organic or recycled yarns, but I buy way too much from secondhand stores.

At Stitch Fest I was opposite a silver #jewellery maker who turned out to be a sci-fi fan. She had #StarTrek #StarWars and #DoctorWho jewellery, and after I asked if she had anything #Stargate, she's going to try to make one (she has a simple piece inspired by it, but she's going to try to add chevrons). She's a massive fan but hasn't had many requests for it lately!

She does #yarn, #knitting, #crochet and #flower themed #jewelry too. I highly recommend taking a look, her work is fantastic! https://www.dawngilldesigns.com/

Exactly a year after learning to crochet, my first major freeform piece - a Halloween jumper! Freeform has no pattern, fabric is made up of small random or figurative 'scrumbles' and joining them together. About £90 of yarn in it - wool, premium acrylic/cotton, recycled sari silk, chenille, felt bobbles and beads. I'm fascinated by eyes. My OH says it's 'the product of a disturbed mind'.

@Ruth_Mottram a nice rabbit hole for a rainy day! Seems skein is interchangeable in different places for a loose oval ball of wool and a twisted hank. The hank is definitely more goose like. Hazel Stainer, designer and writer, has an interesting summary focused on the #wool ball itself. Gives rise to further questions for me that might illuminate the etymology further...

We were in #Utrecht yesterday and there I visited the beautiful store "sticks & cups".

Great surprise - they have a small selection of #Wollmeise.

Seems like a lot of sock yarn I bought but all are already spoken for. The 3 on the left will be thank you socks for some people who have helped greatly in the last weeks when some family members had health problems. The orange one is again a gift and the other 2 are for daughter and partner.

“Imaginary Frog”, so called because I don’t know if any real frogs come in this colourway but they totally should! It’s designed to pair perfectly with “Sour Apple Candy” and is a fun departure from my usual palette.

Don’t worry, I know “you should stick to flowers, love” (as a non-customer once put it) if I want to actually sell yarn but please allow me a little artistic indulgence occasionally.

Taking off some of the stress I feel about vacation ending by doing LYS shopping.

DAYS SINCE LAST YARN PURCHASE: 0
(well it had only reached like 3 or something before today)

Spincycle and La Bien Aimee for a brioche hat, and a couple of DellaQ makers bags and a project bag

Purple project bag, mustard and blue makers sacks, and two skeins of yarn (blue from La bien Aimee, multicolor from Spincycle)

#yarn shopping in #Leiden

I found a gorgeous store called #Ribbles. It's stuffed to the brim with wonderful yarns. I loved walking through it, finding new to me brands and yarns. Thinking about what could be done with them.

I ended not buying much, because I already have a basement full of yarn and fiber.

Top left is my "souvenir" skein, the socks made will remind me a long time off this vacation. Top right is a gift for a very dear person.

A collage of 4 pictures with knitting yarn.

Top row are two balls of fingering weight yarn, one a mixture of greys the other of oranges.

Bottom row is 3 bald of a jeans blue yarn and one ball of Noro brand fingering weight in turquoise and purples.

Final "project" for the #FallFinishAlong

The ball on the left was a mostly finished sock. But I ran out of yarn well before the toe and couldn't find a third ball of the (already discounted) colorway.

It's been collecting dust for a few months and the along has given me the necessary kick in the back to unravel it.

I'll let it sit for a bit so it unkinks and then I'll search for a new idea.

Two balls of yarn in several shades of purple.

On the left the original ball still with the ball and stating it's the brand Regia. On the left the same yarn bit on a hand wound cake.

Everything on a background of weathered wood.

This is actually a pretty awesome (but lengthy) post about Bun and why you probably shouldn't jump on the train already.
