What to stash this week: A pop-up of some magnitude

As excited as I am about the return of Dan Harmon’s brilliant Community, I’m even more excited about what’s new on Indie Untangled. On Monday, I opened a pop-up shop with tons of skeins from Berry Colorful Yarnings. There are quite a few beauties, ...

What to stash this week: Instant gratification

Instant gratification? It’s in the bag(s). And bowl.

If you’re the type that doesn’t like to wait, you’re in luck: I have a few Indie Untangled/That Clever Clementine logo items remaining from the stock I brought to the Rhinebeck Trunk Show. There is one Reversible ...

What to stash this week: Hallow-skeins

Kim of Western Sky Knits has plenty of treats on hand, including some new speckled sock skeins and some new semisolids in both DK and worsted weight yarns. She has also added a few skeins of Lace and a set of mini skeins on Magnolia ...

Post-Rhinebeck winners

Thanks to everyone who commented on the Indie Untangled Trunk Show recap post! The winner of the stitch markers from Leticia of A Bit of Spark is Carol B, while Dee and Christine will each get a copy of <a href="http://plymagazine.com" ...

A Rhinebeck recap

I’ve definitely had a lot to digest over the last week and a half since coming back to Life After Rhinebeck. The weekend of the New York Sheep & Wool Festival has always been this happy exhaustion, where I stay up way too late with friends I haven’t ...

What to stash this week: Keep calm and buy more yarn

I don’t know about you, but after this past weekend, I could use a massage or something else soothing. Something like Lexi of Queen Bee Fibers‘ newest pattern. Her Keep Calm Cowl, which uses 400 yards of sock yarn, is available on ...

Kicking off Rhinebeck the Indie way

In the months that I spent organizing this past Friday’s Pre-Rhinebeck Trunk Show, I wasn’t quite sure exactly how to envision it. I of course expected tables, racks and baskets full of gorgeous yarn and fiber, along with sweater and shawl samples, but I didn’t expect such ...

What to stash this week if you’re not at Rhinebeck

Michelle of Berry Colorful Yarnings — whose yarn I have the honor to sell at the pre-Rhinebeck trunk show tonight — will be having a very fall-themed update next Thursday, Oct. 23. It includes plenty of self-striping yarns, as well as overdyes ...

Trunk show prize preview

Those of you who follow Indie Untangled on Instagram might have seen some previews of raffle prizes that will be available at the pre-Rhinebeck Trunk Show. Here’s a little roundup of what you can look forward to winning:

There will also be prizes from ...

Pre-Rhinebeck Untangling: Rochelle of Lucky Lucille

Each time I visit Lucky Lucille, I’m instantly struck with the urge to take out my sewing machine and start whipping up cute 1940s-style dresses. Never mind the fact that I can’t sew a straight line to save my life, and that I consider fabric glue one ...

Fiber festival season

If it were possible to overdose on yarn (but really, we all know that it isn’t) this time of year is when it would happen. Just like non-knitting folks see Pumpkin Spice Everything, there is so much going on in the fiber world.

Take this weekend, for example....

A peek inside Gauge + Tension

New York City certainly doesn’t lack for local yarn shops (and there will be plenty to keep everyone busy during the NYC Yarn Crawl next weekend), but Michele Wang’s Gauge + Tension, which opened Saturday, fills a special niche. Since it’s only ...

What to stash this week: Gradient city

Gradient yarn sets are kind of like doughnuts — really hard to turn down when you’re presented with them.

Stephania of Three Fates Yarns, a dyer out of Oregon, one of my favorite places, has presented us with another way to ...

Pre-Rhinebeck Untangling: Jacey Boggs of PLY magazine

As a journalist with an extensive background in print, I always get a little excited — and, also, very intrigued — when someone starts a non-digital publication. Jacey Boggs took the print plunge last summer when she launched PLY magazine, which is dedicated to the ...

Untangling: Brooklyn pop-up yarn shop Gauge + Tension

Who among us hasn’t fantasized about owning a yarn shop and stocking it full of hand-dyed skeins from some of our favorite indie dyers? Well, designer Michele Wang, she of the beautifully textured Brooklyn Tweed and Quince and Co. knits, has decided to do it, though she’s ...
