Opposites Attract

Two balls of contrary yarns piled in a basket inspired this sweater.

The richness of the colors looked so perfect, but would such different yarns work together? I knit up a swatch. Hmm, definite possibilities.

Colors were mixed and matched for the winning combination. Then more swatching.

The resulting sweater is Hortik, designed by Teti Lutsak. This version combines Meadow Rustic Sport in Golden Maple and Dark Raspberry Donegal Tweed DK. These rich, naturally-dyed colors really glow!

Surprisingly, these two quite different yarns play well together, united by the miracle of blocking. And the Donegal Tweed adds a little playfulness to the otherwise quiet Meadow Rustic Sport.

Hortik is a great project for Spring. It adds extra warmth for chilly mornings, but the short sleeves prevent you overheating as the day warms up.

In addition to the rich Golden Maple/Dark Raspberry combination, consider Meadow Rustic Sport in Cherry Bark with Madder 4 Tweed, or double dyed Black Walnut sport and Cool Water tweed. Or design your own combo.

You can see this Hortik sweater sample in person at my upcoming shows, including this weekend’s Fiber Expo in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

A new fiber chapter

Acorn & Oak Fibers (formerly Why Knot Fibers) is growing and changing in exciting ways, and we’re inviting you to be part of it!

We purchased processing equipment to create roving, pin-drafted roving, and combed top, as well as semi-worsted and worsted yarn. What does this mean? It means that, in addition to all the beautiful hand-dyed colors you’re used to, we will be able to create our yarn bases and spinning fibers from scratch, having our hands in every part of the process.

This also means that we will eventually be able to offer small-batch processing to our greater fiber community. We hope to raise enough to move the equipment, upgrade our current mill space, and maybe be able to expand sooner rather than later.

We have put together what we believe is a lovely set of rewards for all levels of backing, and we would love to have you along for this adventure.

Spinning Fiber Study Club #1

Contact Vendor

Tags

I love to spin fiber! To encourage others to fall in love with spinning fiber, I’ve started a progressive, quarterly Fiber Study Club. We’ll start with beginner-friendly wools and gradually progress to finer fibers as our skills advance.

The first installment features French Charollais in two colourways, Barcelona and Montjuic sandstone. See my blog post for spin samples and ideas. If you’re an experienced spinner or want an extra challenge, these colours are also available in SW Merino. I’ve also dyed a coordinating yarn which could be used a base with handspun colourwork.

This is a preorder through the middle of April with a limited time discount for newsletter subscribers on all the Barcelona series fiber and yarn. Details in my next newsletter.

Spring Greens & a New Sock Set

Spring arrives in fresh greens, a new sock set, and cozy new bases.

Spring is starting to show up everywhere in soft new greens, and that fresh energy inspired this month’s yarns. Our Spring Greens mini skein set brings together six shades of the season — sage, evergreen, light mint, spring green, forest, and seafoam — perfect for cheerful stripes and colorwork.

We’re also introducing Spring Tide, a sock set with a seafoam base layered with sage and finished with teal and warm honey speckles. It is paired with sage and seafoam minis for easy contrast cuffs and heels. These colors are also available on our new Alpaca Cotton base, a soft blown yarn that creates a cozy fabric with a gentle halo and beautifully layered color.

And for those who love something a little brighter, the Neon Aqua Tweed Sock Set brings a playful pop of color with vibrant aqua and cheerful tweedy flecks. We add the two neon contrast minis for cuffs and heels in lemon glow and flo orange.

Purl Tide: Knitting with a View

I was recently invited to vend with Carolina Fiber Retreats and Tours at their annual Surf ‘n Sand Beach Retreat in Carolina Beach, NC. A crisp Atlantic breeze greeted us in mid February, but it was a welcome escape from the full‑throttle Mardi Gras madness back home in New Orleans. Even better, I woke up each morning to a stunning 6:45am sunrise from my 10th‑floor balcony (bonus: everyone at the retreat gets the same gorgeous view) and had the chance to reconnect with knitting friends who are retreat regulars. If you are ever looking for a retreat to attend, be sure to look into Carolina Fiber Retreats and Tours.

Inspired by the coastal vibes, I created a special retreat‑exclusive colorway called Surf n’ Sand, and it was a huge hit. Every hank and mini set found a happy home. This colorway blends blues, aquas, and sandy browns, echoing the rhythm of waves along the Atlantic shoreline. Missed it at the retreat? You can grab a skein (or three) in my Etsy shop.

I’ve been slinging project bags and hand‑dyed yarns for nearly a decade, but many folks still don’t know me. So here’s a quick intro to me and my business:

Rick is the creative force behind WhimzeeStitches Designs, a passion‑driven brand specializing in handmade fabric and vinyl project bags, vibrant hand‑dyed yarns, and thoughtfully curated knitting accessories. With roots in the quilting world, Rick developed an early love for texture, color, and craftsmanship — an influence that continues to shape every piece he creates today.

A dedicated solopreneur since 2015, Rick blends style and functionality with an unmistakable artistic flair. His work is inspired by culturally rich experiences, global travel, incredible food, and an endless supply of coffee. Drawing heavily from the vibrant colors and spirit of New Orleans, each handmade creation reflects a joyful balance of creativity, quality, and care, designed to delight knitters, crocheters, and fiber artists alike.
