I love working with alpaca yarns. They are sustainable, considered hypoallergenic for most, and so so soft. One of my top 5 personal favorite fibers. Only problem is that dyeing them makes the whole studio (and house) smell like a petting zoo. Anyway, met these babes yesterday. Dyeing now…

Knitting update: it’s cold and rainy here and I’m working on a throw that’s gonna have a whole run of different colors from fingering-weight mini skeins but we’re starting out with @hellagoodyarn.bsky.social’s Wicked-inspired minis and it all looks & feels fantastic so far

My Gulf of Mexico yarn from @hellagoodyarn.bsky.social is here! I grew up on the Gulf Coast and miss that water every day. I'm going to knit something that will allow me to wrap myself in the Gulf of Mexico anytime, anywhere.
Blue variegated yarn wrapped in a label with a cartoon black cat printed on it. The yarn is laying on white tissue paper and there are three knitting themed stickers next to it.

Selene is our homage to the moon. A simple pallet of grays ripples through this colorway, creating pockets of light and dark, like the surface of the moon. #handdyedyarn #indiedyer 🧶

Pansy is a limited edition colorway inspired by the incredibly vibrant and often under appreciated Pansy flower. As spring approaches, many of us will be grabbing these flowers for our gardens, this colorway lets you have those color spots year round! #handdyedyarn #dyesky 🧶

I already have ideas for what to do with this yarn when I get it! Anyone who knows how much I love the Gulf would not be surprised by how emotional I am about this yarn existing.

Peck’s Purple is named in honor of our favorite yarn pusher Susan at our LYS, Knitique Yarns. She is a purple person through and through and was a big supporter of us opening the studio so we wanted to immortalize her in a colorway. 🧶 #handdyedyarn #indiedyer

Got a yarn that’s a bit too subtle for your liking? Add a carry along. Even something as fine as thread can make a huge difference in the finished fabric. 🧶

My stress level has risen exponentially without a functional WIP on the needles during this week of eldercare fiscal forensics. If something had been started already, I'd have an outlet for the angst and weltschmerz I'm feeling. But nothing I cast on was working. I did swatch for my Musselburgh.🧶

This was a super fun kit to come up with. The second skein down was the colorway I based off the photo to the left. Adding the mohair silk and minis really brings it all together. 🧶 #dyesky #indiedyedyarn #indiedyer
