Spring Bloom

When the lovely knit wear designer Janina Kallio

of  'Woolenberry' asked me to do a test knit

I couldn't help to snag a skein of "Glacier."

I dyed it a soft companion in "Ball Jar".

As always, Janina's pattern did not disappoint!

"Spring Bloom" is available as part of her 2018 Woolenberry Shawl Club.

It is a fun and beautiful knit.  I can't wait to see what she has

in store for the rest of the shawl club!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by my booth at the Raggz Fiber Event.

It was a lovely day full of fun ~ new friends and catching up with familiar faces.

Catching up..

Because I do most of my updating on Instagram, 

this journal space tends to be left behind...

Thought I'd pop in for an update.

Couldn't resist keeping two skeins of the new

chicka-dee-K base for a booth sample.

Colorways: Delilah and Purple Sage

Kemper Wray has a lovely pattern called 'Color Field Shawl.'

It comes in two sizes, below is the small using one skein of each yarn.

Her pattern is available on Ravelry.  It is a fun and fast knit!

The Etsy shop is a little lean at the moment as I prepare for the

next event.  I'll be updating the shop after the 

Raggz Fiber and Wool event on April 21, 2018.

Lather, rinse, repeat...

Be curious.

Try stuff.

Don't be attached to the outcome.

Fractal

Our guild hosted a wonderful spinning workshop with

the lovely and talented Jillian Moreno.

We had a wonderful time experimenting with color in her

'Color Play' class

Knitting up some mitts with some fractal spun fiber from class.

Loving the way the stripes are knitting up!
