I found out from @dyemadyarns.bsky.social email list,& they have a Lake Ontario colorway dyemadyarns.com/products/lak...
dyemadyarns.com
Lake Ontario
Lake Ontario is the third lake in our fade (and this is due to the coloring of the lakes from an aerial view, not geographical order). Lake Ontario is the easternmost lake, bordering the United States...

I have not been displaying gold star behavior, according to my elbows :(
Graphic with six knit golden stars and text overlay. Text says: gold star behavior (in our personal opinion)
-shopping at local businesses who give a shit about people
-getting to know new friends at the weekly stitch night
-making a plan to vote November 3rd (or earlier)
-finishing a project before casting on a new one
-not giving yourself tendonitis
-supporting your fibershed by making a trip to the local fiber festivals

We realized after we launched Tomato Festival that nothing *quite* fit to make her shine, so we started brainstorming a new color… and we made something that pairs beatifically with so many of our heirloom veggies! #yarn🧶 Introducing Black Beauty: dyemadyarns.com/products/bla...

This is for a very niche audience (it’s me, I’m the audience)!! If you’re looking to embody an entire ✨vibe✨ when stitching your project from start to finish, maybe add a fragrance to the experience 💃 #fragrance #perfume #yarn

Did you know you can thank Ohio for the modern tomato? Alexander Livingston, of Reynoldsburg, Ohio, is credited as the father of the modern tomato, and this weekend marks the 60th Reynoldsburg Tomato Festival! We made yarn (because we love tomatoes). 🍅🧶 dyemadyarns.com/products/tom...

THE FAIR IS IN TOWN! Each year, we like to commemorate the Ohio State Fair… in yarn, of course! While our main love (as sponsors!) is the Creative Arts Division, we can’t help but have some soft spots for fair foods and quirks! Here’s what we’ve turned into yarn! dyemadyarns.com/collections/...
Mixed Berry Pie: a variegated yarn with a blend of pinks and purples and beige. This year’s featured pie flavor!

@dyemadyarns.bsky.social ARRIVED!! I’m going to be good and put it in the stash since I’ve already got a bazillion things cast on. I left a couple of the bands face up so y’all can see the porch goose logo. It’s bright and squishy and soft and deets are in ALT. #Yarn #Knitting #IndieDyer #HandDyed 🧶
Five skeins of hand dyed sock yarn. From left to right they are:

1. American Neon—black, bright blue, red, orange, and the colors they make where they meet. 

2. Grandpa’s Cheese Barn—emerald green, golden yellow, bubble gum pink, grey, and a tiny bit of overlap. 

These first two are from the Weird Ohio collection. 

3. Evergreen Bunching Onion—dark green, bright green, white, and black speckles. 

4. Purple Podded Peas—deep purple, soft green, white, with splashes of fuchsia. 

These two are from the Harvest collection. 

5. Cups & Pentacles—slightly redder deep purple than the Purple Podded Peas, gold, a medium tonal pink, a smidge of dark purple speckles on the pink, and the pink and gold overlap a little. 

This last one is from the Witchy Shit collection and is specifically for me. Happy early birthday to me ! 🎉🎁🎊

All are on the Chester Sock base.
