Join the Hoard Saturday March 2, 10a ET

A group of dragons is called a thunder, due to the fact that all their wings beating makes a sound like rolling thunder.

Every month join us for this journey through lore, literature and film as we explore Twelve Dragons — stories of these magnificent creatures that are powerful, cunning, trusting and that love to, as we also do, hoard treasure.  In 2024 we will explore different dragons from all over the world, from their lore, stories and colors. Twelve new exclusive colors on Lucent as well as a collection of dragon-themed treasures, notions and collectables are entering the den every other month.

For our first dragon, we must leave our warm hobbit hole and venture deep into the mountains.

A fire drake from the Third Age and the “Last Great Dragon” of Middle Earth. For 171 hoarded his treasures in the once great Dwarf home under the Lonely Mountain.
Extra treasures joining the yarn will be a three-sticker Dragon pack – Fantasy creatures sticker sheet – Dragon Eggs sticker sheet.

Fingering Weight

The Sphinx has many stories from all over the land, each unique to their culture but the image of a large feline with human facial features is known all over the world.

This may be the last folklore creature we dive into, but it also could be the most well known. The Sphinx has many stories from all over the land, each unique to their culture but the image of a large feline with human facial features is known all over the world.

Immediately you probably go to the Great Sphinx of Giza, so did I.

The first stories are thought to be from as early as the third millennium BCE. They were used in imagery all over the cradle of life, Egypt, Greece, Persia, Babylon, even East Asia but the one I was drawn too was the story of the Egyptian sphinxes (1999’s The Mummy with Rachel Weisz and Brendan Fraser still has a chokehold on me).

They’re often seen with the body of a lion, resting guarding and a stoic man’s face often wearing a pharaonic headdress and false beard painted with reds, bright blues and yellow. They stood guard as protectors of the royals, often built to guard their royal tombs as they were believed to be a creature of good. They’re most often represented by the god Ra, the fatherly god and father of the pharaohs. They were the defenders against evil, Ra’s enemies, literal forces of darkness. Other forms were tributed to Amon with rams horns of a ram, or with the head of a falcon and wings to be from the god Horus

The Greek story of the Sphinx is where their love for riddles originates. A Sphinx made her home outside the mountains of Thebes and confronted every person who walked across her path with a riddle. If they answered incorrectly they were devoured. After years of many nobles dying, Oedipus was sent and solved the riddle leading the Sphinx to throw herself off the cliff to her death.

The Winter Solstice Calendars will be inspired by the general witchy cozy vibes of a snow covered forest on solstice, think dark trees, Moon glows and the cronching of snow beneath your boots while it echoes through the forest.
BOTH Calendars. Each year I like to mix up the advent/calendar styles and I couldn’t choose just one so this season we are doing a Solstice Sock Calendar and a FIBER calendar.

Solstice Sock Advent ($200): You will receive 4 sock sets each set being 1- 100g skein and 2 – 20g minis in contrast colors, all on the Nectar base. Alongside the yarn you will also get notions!

Fiber Solstice Advent ($160): 12 -20g bumps alongside the same vibe as the sock sets, not the same colors but same vibe and 1 – 100g Braid.
All of the fiber will be the same blend that way you don’t need to change any spinning techniques between the days!

Preorder days: June 1, 9a ET and July 1, 11a ET — Each preorder will be up for 10 days or until they sell out!

Each month, a color inspired by Folklore around the world is released, and this month’s folklore introduces us to one of the seven legendary monsters of Guarani Mythology. Mbói Tu’ĩ was once a beautiful parrot who lived on Earth without evil. He knew the secret path to enter this paradise guarded by the god Rupave, and because of this was given Lechiguana to drink by some Mamluks until he was so drunk he told them how to find the path. Knowing it was Mboi Tui who revealed the secret, Rupave cursed him and took away his ability to fly, transforming him into his current form of a giant serpent body with streaks and scales, with a feathered head and beak of a parrot, and split tongue the color of blood. He patrols the swamps of south central South America (Paraguay and some parts of Argentina, Brazil and Bolivia) living in the humid atmosphere and local flora while protecting the wetlands and amphibian life around him. It is said his terrifying squawks can be heard far off, instilling terror in anyone who hears it.

Lucent: 70% SW BFL, 20% silk, 10% Cashmere 100g 438 yds

Folklore goes live Saturday, June 3, 9 a.m. ET – There are ready to ship skeins and then preorders until we have reached capacity.

The Folklore Club is a monthly club released into the world on the first weekend of every month inspired by creatures of lore from around the world.

May’s installment is inspired by Ahuizotl, a legendary creature from Aztec mythology also described as a “spiny aquatic thing” or “water Dog.” Lurking in deep pools of water or caverns, this small dog-sized creature’s purpose is to protect the local fish, or it was sent by the gods Tlaloc and Chalchiuhtlicue to collect souls they like. It is coated with dark black waterproof fur that tends to spike when leaving the water, small pointed ears and hands similar to that of a monkey on both of its arms and the end of its smooth, rubbery tail which they use to capture their prey.

Most accounts say the Ahuizotl snatches people from the water’s edge to feast on their eyes, nails and teeth, sometimes using cries that are similar to that of a human baby or sending all the frogs and fish to the surface to bring people in closer.

It will be available on Lucent: 70% SW BFL 20% Silk 10% Cashmere 100G 438yds
Preorder goes live Saturday May 6, 10 a.m. ET

A palette with the classic Plies & Hellhounds moody depth but with some new pops of color. Like a vase of Poppies in a dark green living room, or that favorite yellow velvet chair in your office where you take a break from your work.

100g, 268yds, DK weight, non-Superwash

Wrought Iron: A charcoal black like the original fence around the front garden standing as an intimidating barrier to the outside world but a strong barrier keeping your garden within.

Old Growth: A Stormy Navy kitchen with the dark colors making the cabinets feel like that are going on forever, a warm cave of fresh pastries, stews and late night hot drinks.
Withdrawing: A living room not just for sitting, with living plants acting as curtains around tall windows, browns and greens in the leathers and leaves enveloping you in their branches while you read your favorite book.

Solitude: Bedrooms are meant to be a sanctuary, somewhere to be your truest self and feel complete relaxation. The last warm blues of the night sky before the sun rises envelope this bedroom making it feel like the witching hour all day.

Gable: Standing strong in either a shelf lined library or outline of the home itself a wine red brings the power of what you can bring through your stories and reminds those looking up at this house what power goes on within its walls.

Sun Soaked: Rays coming in through the long halls and tall ceilings warming the wooden floors, feeding the plants, and illuminating the colors of the house.

Charmer: Accents in flowers, pillows, art, food. Pops of a bright red to balance out the moods of the walls.

Good Bones: The house won’t stand without good bones and this collection wouldn’t be here without this yarn. Letting the natural heathering of the wool shine and speak for itself.

Sweater: Double Date by Winter’s Weather Knits in Wrought Iron, Gable, Good Bones and Charmer

The last plant of the Wicked Seeds club is Hemlock, available on Nectar: 60% SW Merino 20% Silk 20% Yak 100G 400yds

Hemlock is a commonly misidentified plant, not to be confused with the Hemlock tree (harmless) or water hemlock (not so harmless) but also more common plants like carrots, Queen Anne’s Lace and wild Chervil leading to a tragic error. One of the key features to make sure what you are foraging is not Hemlock, the stalk of this plant has distinct purple/red markings up its green stalk.⁠ It was a popular old Germanic funerary herb, who believed it was a plant of great hatred and harbored resentment for other plants favored by people like rue that it won’t grow anywhere near it. ⁠But the use of this plant did not start there in ancient Greece it was the state poison of executions in Athens as well as the cause of death for historical figures such as Socrates who was found guilty in his trial after riots broke out in Athens and given a cup of Hemlock extract.⁠

Digesting true Hemlock will cause tremors, dilated pupils, vomiting and muscle weakness to start but can also turn into kidney failure, muscle paralysis, Low blood pressure and a slow heartbeat.⁠
