It’s too hot for wool 🥵 knitting t-shirts it is! I love Raygun’s merch and they have moved to selling through retailers only. You can find this on our website!

What’s your act of #resistance? Share below for inspiration! I’ll start: I keep a pile of postcards on my desk and I jot one off to NJ elected officials when something in the news makes my blood boil.

Knitting, crochet, fiber arts—art has always been political. If you want to learn more about what goes into the wool we work with, we’re starting a book club on Discord next month: discord.gg/VCyg7ejqj

I started Two River Fiber with the aim of offering yarns from smaller, local farms. Initial offerings were all natural colored wools and we’ll be expanding with more colors and some good kits for crafters for the holidays. Stay tuned, support small farms, and knit local—including for Rhinebeck!
An orange sweater with “local” written on it is surrounded by text stating “Rhinebeck Sweaters for Good.” Bold text surrounding the graphic states Local Yarn Sold Here.

Never thought I would get such glee from finding those little bits of hay in farm yarn and roving. It’s like a little window into life of the animal behind the fiber.

Can’t keep up with #fiberuarychallenge due to day job and trying to limit social media. So here is an accidental nail polish to yarn match instead.
A white woman holds a skein of handspun yarn. The yarn is light grey with colors flecked throughout. Her turquoise nail matches a spot of color in the yarn.

I'm brand new to Bluesky, still learning how it all works. I'm a fiber artist, usually working with upcycled fabric scraps. I've been stitching my feelings lately, and this is my latest embroidery project - Sunbonnet Sue, Days of Rage collection. It's inspired by the 1930's Sunbonnet Sue designs.

Why #smallfarmyarn? Its often subtle beauty is the result of a lot of hard work, from farmers who care about #animalwelfare 🐑 , practice #permaculture and regenerative agriculture 👩‍🌾, and have a lower carbon footprint by shearing and milling closer to home. Support small farms and knit local 🧶!

So, I had this idea… #ScrapAlong2025 begins on Valentines Day and ends on the Ides of March (15 March). Start earlier or finish later, but make something with leftover yarn. You don’t have enough scraps for an entire project? Include what you do have! 1/5
An announcement of Scrap Along 2025. Valentines Day to the Ides of March (14 Feb - 15 Mar) Make a thing from leftover yarn. (The background image is a closeup of my first scrappy pirate socks of the year.) Start earlier or finish later, but make something with leftover yarn. You don’t have enough scraps for an entire project? Include what you do have!Believe me, I’m all for buying new yarn, especially from indie dyers and welcoming yarn shops. Lots of it! Sometimes I just can’t. And besides, if I liked the yarn the first time I used it, I want to use every last inch and centimeter. Why do this? To put it mildly, we’re living in uncertain times that will likely get worse before they get better. For now, we piece together our lives as best we can. Many have been doing that all along. Like piecing together leftover yarn into something gorgeous, one of a kind, memorable. Like you.
