Indie dyer love

I was already a fan of the A Playful Day podcast and blog when Kate launched the Love Our Indies campaign last month. The first post from Victoria of Eden Cottage Yarns — responding to a collaboration between a UK women’s group and an arts ...

Inside the Astral Bath Yarns open house

I’ve been trying to find the best words to describe the open house that Ridgely, the artist behind Astral Bath Yarns, hosted this past Saturday in her Portland, Maine, studio. I think it could most accurately be described as one of her frenzied Etsy updates ...

Get your Indie Untangled yarn ball logo bags!

I’m pretty excited to introduce you to the newest Indie Untangled vendor, which is none other than… Indie Untangled!

If you were around when this site launched in April, then you might have participated in the first giveaway of the special bags ...

What to stash this week: Bag some bags (and yarn, and fiber)

I am SO excited for Vicki of That Clever Clementine: this week, she reached her 500-sale milestone on Etsy! What’s even better is that she’s offering 15% off all orders of $20 or more through June 10 with the code IndieUntangledJune....

What to stash this week: black sheep yarn

In case you haven’t heard, there’s a giveaway going on here on Indie Untangled. While you’re waiting to see if you’ll be one of four lucky winners, take a look at some of the other things on offer from our talented artisans. It might not ...

Berry Colorful Yarnings giveaway ‘tour’

I hope you all had a relaxing holiday weekend and have been able to get back into the daily grind easily (those of you not in the U.S. can feel lucky to have had a head start on work this week). While having a lovely time with family ...

What to stash: Yarn ‘your way’

I find it all too perfect that Burger King has decided to redo its iconic “Have it Your Way” logo and that Don and Peggy slow danced to Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” on last Sunday’s Mad Men (how beautiful was that scene?!)....

Untangling: Berry Colorful Yarnings

We knitters tend to like to try out new hand-dyed yarns “for science.” Michelle Berry’s science background came in handy when she decided to launch Berry Colorful Yarnings.

Michelle spent several years as a dental assistant, and also helped out with her husband’s California construction company....

ABC’s ‘Suburgatory’ can’t follow a simple pattern

I’ve been a fan of ABC’s Suburgatory since it debuted in 2011. The sitcom is about a single dad (played by Jeremy Sisto — you may remember him as Elton in Clueless) who’s raised his teenage daughter Tessa in Manhattan, but decides to move them to the suburbs to get ...

What to stash this week: tennis, anyone?

I should probably get to swatching for my Waterlily (I plan to start it soon, but also need to finish the Aphasia I’m knitting in honor of a friend’s wedding), but if I had time to knit All The Things, I’d get Sarah Hurwitz’s ...

What to make with gradient yarn sets

You know you’re a knitter when you hear the word “ombre” and don’t automatically think hair. Indie dyers, including a few here on Indie Untangled, have been producing some incredible gradient sets. They rarely fail to make me swoon, but I always feel like I need some guidance ...

What to stash: Get your sharp little needles ready

OK, so I might not be quite so obsessed with Wes Anderson that I would drop over a grand to go on a Grand Budapest Hotel-themed cruise cruise (no, I did not make that up), but I am super excited about the Canon Hand Dyes Wes Anderson ...

The search for the perfect navy

In order to get some different perspectives on hand-dyed yarn, I will periodically run posts by other knitters. Yelena Malcolm Dasher, AKA ymalcolm on Ravelry, is incredibly talented and lightning fast, and she can probably finish more sweaters in a year than I could hope ...

What to stash this week, ’cause it’s spring!

Those of you not lucky enough to be Maryland bound this weekend can find solace in some really great stashing opportunities online.

First, an update from The Uncommon Thread TODAY at 4 p.m. BST. Two new colorways, including the delicious Sorbet ...

Knitting indie: Ready for spring (and for winter Down Under)

Even though it was a bit windy in New York over the weekend, the weather could not have been more perfect for the debut of my latest FO. Those of you who subscribe to the newsletter will be happy to know that my French Cancan ...
