I’ve been busy launching new things in my shop and recovering from my business trip teaching. But my heart is so full. I just launched my first two custom milled and designed by me combed top blends!

Got off my anxious doom scrolling butt and did one thing to ensure my family’s future today. It’s small but I’m trying to just do little steps because the big stuff is so overwhelming and paralyzing.

I keep having thoughts like “should I put my husband on my work bank account in case women can’t own accounts anymore?” I hate it here. I just wanna play with fiber. But instead I’m making plans like that.

I’m pretty annoyed we had to buy a new water heater when ours died last year but it’s hard to complain when I’m scouring wool and the tap is like this.

Another day another late night doom scrolling and doom posting yarn I made. I only own 3 support spindles I’m comfy with so I plied to free them. Corriedale yearling with sari by @noreasteryarns.bsky.social . I’m not as consistent as I’d like on support yet but I’m aiming for sport.

On Tuesday, a new pattern is entering the Coloring Book family, but first, let's take a look at a very old one. 3 years down the line, and my customers are STILL loving the original Coloring Book Raglan. 1/

This week’s support spindle spinning progress. I only have these three so I had to clear it to keep spinning but it was satisfying to have them full. #handspinning #supportspindle #yarn

Our very own @s.hchau decided that she was going to knit up a little size 6 Coloring Book Tee Mini for my kiddo C! ⁠ ⁠ We used @coasttocoastyarnco Natural Sock for a beautiful, sturdy non-superwash option to keep the core warm. These are the colorways Potato & Velvet Foot.

Guess what! For those who have been Turkish spindle curious.. I've got your back. We now stock an affordable range of Snyder glider spindles in 3 sizes. We love the mini size for fast, sustained spinning for super fine spinning, while the medium is great for thicker singles like fingering to DK. 1/

I would not recommend this one because it just doesn't light enough plants! I now use shop lights hung in shelving with adjustable velcro ties so I can lower the lights close to the shelf when the plants are little, and lift as they grow. They gotta be like 2" from the plants at most.

It is the most Monday of mondays and I expect every Monday and every other day to be like this for the next 4 years (4 if we are lucky). Still… I guess I’m happy to report this scarf my kiddo (8) is making is done and off the loom! She has some finishing tasks to do on it but we are so proud.

The worst thing about being a knitting designer is that I have to make separate samples just to wear. It takes me ages. I’ve been getting sooo much wear out of my full length Slightly Sassy V. I definitely need more compound raglans in my own life! #knitting #knittingdesign

Do you have a favorite spindle style? ⁠ ⁠ In a previous post I talked about how I only used a student spindle for 2 years, then went over to wheel spinning and didn't return for 5 years. Now that I'm back exploring spindles, I'm slowly falling in love with.. uh, all of them. ⁠#yarn #knitting
