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.
As its now the festive period, there's 50% off everything on my Etsy shop - edit: link https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/cedigcraft

Glacier, a snowy white with black speckles and pretty greys. Available with or without a frosty sparkle on sock, as well as DK and aran. It would pair beautifully with one of our darker greys.
My Whovian inspired hand-dyed yarns arrived - and they are even better than the photo! Thanks to https://www.ashandevedesigns.com/

Made some coasters and some more cloths. The face cloths/ dishcloths are on my UK based Ebay (I did try to start an etsy but it somehow didn't work out).
The cloths are made from 100% organic cotton yarn and the coasters are recycled cotton and recycled synthetic fibre.

The smallest #scraps of leftover #yarn in your #stash can be used to make #wristwarmers. These are #crocheted but could just as easily be #knitted. When it's cold they make a difference & help #warmhands, especially when #typing, #painting or #drawing. No #pattern just make them up as you go along. If your skills leave as much to be desired as mine do, use varying #textured #wools. #crafts #knit #winter #warmth #stitches #knitandnatter #coldhands #keyboard #Spinning #weaving #sewing
Winter greens: Mossy Frog, Avocado, and Cute Midwinter. These work beautifully with our many floral skeins, festive theme colourways, and contrast intensely with bright reds for holiday fun.
Doing a little proof of concept for a future snowflake blanket while also stash busting on a lap blanket destined for donation. I really like this effect. #crochet #crocheting #CrochetBlankets #Yarn #YarnArt #Crafts #Homemade
Already wound the yarn for my next socks.
It's actually quite ugly, but it does have a character. #crochet #handspinning #yarn @fiberarts

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!
Look at my yarn though. Hand dyed about 1 minute drive from my house.

I would like to showcase one creation a day until maybe the 15th December (a half Advent calendar in a way), the ones I am most proud of😉 ...
Starting today with this hand dyed yarn colourway I called #Valromey in hommage to my valley in France.

Brought a bunch of yarn today. Got some organic cotton yarn as well as some 100% recycled yarn.
I am looking to focus on making, scarves, dishcloths, coasters and pouches.
Here are some pouches I did ages ago. I made to carry dice and change. Totally want to market them as dice pouches.
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 👌
Budoucí ponožky...
Objednala jsem si na vlnap.cz položku, kterou mají nazvanou "barevné překvapení", takže vůbec netušíte, co bude v krabici za barvy. Nooo, jsem spoko.
Finished! Socks for Dad for Xmas, that's all the Xmas gifts finished for this year (except for hubs' because he's not sure what he wants)
Now I'm on to a possibly long-term project - I have a lot of sock yarns which I'd like to use up, and I'd like more jumpers. I have made a start on one using 2 strands of sock yarn together.

I've been allowing my brain a step back from most social media lately, and it's been real nice. The only one I truly miss is Mastodon. 😄 Y'all are rad. ❤️
Things I've been up to:
🔹Closing out the garden for the year, canning 10 jars of tomatoes and 16 jars of carrots 🍅🍅🥕🥕🥕🥕
🔹Having fires in my new fireplace basically every day 🔥
🔹Playing Godtear with the minis I painted
🔹Starting a new sweater for my partner
🔹Easing back into Purls of Magic #gamedev after a post-jam break
🔹Celebrating my amazing partner's birthday ✨

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.

PS: I wanted to buy from my local shop yesterday to support that small business, but since we're in the middle of a big shopping weekend, I also want to boost my very favorite yarn maker online, Lola at Third Vault Yarns , whose yarns are AMAZING - so beautiful, geeky & unique! https://www.thirdvaultyarns.com/ourshop/
Just finished this infinity scarf, super cosy and great for this time of year!
They're hard to photograph on a hanger, but hopefully, this does it justice.

Hi folks. You might already know that I love The Yarnery in St. Paul. They’re my favorite #LYS because they have beautiful yarn and helpful staff. They also generously support the BIPOC queer community. Today and tomorrow online, they are giving away double rewards for all purchases, and their points are already very generous. If you’re local and go to the shop there are giveaways too. The owners, Scott and Shelly, are awesome. Yarnery.com
Everything is packed for @yorkshireyarnfest so I hope you’re all going to show up and have fun with us on Sunday!

I started #crocheting a blanket ages ago and have just finished it. It is so hard to make square :cwy: My idea was to make it really big and into a throw but I had enough so I'm gonna -try- sell it as a baby blanket.
No I do not know why past self made it these colours. Not sure whether to call it unique or somethin' else 😅
Colour/style: TV colour distortion glitch.

Next up in my #knitting journey:
Attempting toe up socks. I have never knitted socks prior, don't know if that is an advantage or not.
Yarn is acrylic and basically just for testing out the concept.
I have started and restarted the toebox a few times before getting a version where my tension is ok and it looks rather good at the edge.
Doing it using the magic loop on circular knitting needles
This week I'm celebrating nine years of running https://www.bluebellyarns.co.uk/!
I've got a sale on all #yarn and you get a free gift with every order!
My wool is sourced from the UK, with a little from the Falkland Islands. It's not superwash treated, doesn't contain any synthetic fibres, and I dye it all myself.
Pictured are "Crayon Crumble" on 40% BFL, 40% Shetland, 20% Alpaca 4ply/fingering and "Pick 'n' Mix" on BFL & Masham blend 4ply/fingering.
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/
Posted this on @astro #discord but maybe someone here can help?
I can't install a new #astro project by running "npm create astro@latest". Using #pnpm and #yarn works just fine.
#node version: 20.9.0 & #npm is 10.1.0. Tried installing #svelte with npm for comparison & got a similar error, so it's a local issue? When using "npm install" to install #11ty it works with no issues.
Could anyone point me to a direction how to fix this? I'm not very familiar with debugging these kind of things...
If you've got failing `npm install` (or yarn) commands, you are not alone 🙁
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'.

Release: Yarn 4.0

I was so busy yesterday I didn't even have time to check in on here!
On the plus side, I've begun packing the #yarn Advent calendars and hope to get some of them posted tomorrow, with the rest following early next week.
I enjoy making them, but they're a lot of work and take over my house for a while. I'll be glad to see them gone!
look at me, swatching like a responsible person #knitting #yarn #FiberArts
@Ruth_Mottram
I love how the threads of wool usage, tools, storage and trade (exchange?) are wrapped up in this word. However, I've reached a dead end. #etymology #yarn #tales #wool #crochet #skein
@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...

working on a slip stitch sock. It’s a bit tedious to switch between 3 colors, but it’s so pretty that it motivates me to keep going. #knitting #sockknitting #tejido #yarn
Good morning🌄8am＠JP
When the weather is cold, goats spin yarn from their own hair that has grown long in the mountain hut. 🐐
They then use the scraps of yarn
to make art from their memories and decorate their hut.🧵🖼
Have fun and be safe today.👐

New City, new yarn store.
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
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.
1/2
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.
