What to stash this week: Yarn support

I was shocked and saddened to read about the experience that many vendors had at Wool & Folk last week. I encourage you to go here for a full list of vendors with links compiled by Jeroen/@boymeetsyarn.

If you attended last Friday’s Indie Untangled show and didn’t snag a tote bag, or if you just want to show off illustrator Jessica McGuirl’s beautiful work, I’ve opened up preorders for the bag….

What to stash this week: Fall far into this yarn

Monica from Vermont-based Round Mountain Fibers is dreaming of Alaska. For her Knitting Our National Parks inspiration, she chose a fittingly fall-hued photo of the blazing fall colors at Serpentine Hot Springs in the Bering Land Bridge National Preserve. The preserve is one of the most remote protected areas of the United States, with no roads. But you can still get two colorways — the variegated/speckled Bering Land Bridge and the semisolid Tundra Green.

Bering Land Bridge is available to preorder on full skeins of both Alder Fingering (80% Superwash Merino/ 20% nylon) and Willow DK (100% Superwash Merino),…

What to stash this week: Festival season

the 37th Lambtown Festival is coming up in a couple of weeks, on October 7 and 8. It takes place in Dixon, California, which is about halfway between the Bay Area and Sacramento in the heart of wine country (or is it wool country?). A bus will travel from San Francisco and Oakland on the 8th for folks who don’t want to drive or who are flying in from out of town.

What to stash this week: Almost peak yarn season

Fall has already arrived for Carolyn and Michelle of Olive & Two Ewe (well, as much as fall can arrive in Florida!) and they are marking it with a new colorway. Harvest Moon is a blend of rich oranges, teals and purples that you can just see pixelating into a sea of leaves and apple cider. Check out their post for some colorways to pair it with for your upcoming fall projects. …

5 things to knit right now + 5 things to stash

We’re in a strange in-between season when it comes to knitting — we want to prepare for all the fall things, but we don’t necessarily want a thick pile o’ wool in our laps. So, this week, I decided to share some projects that take very little time to complete, but that don’t have to be set aside until October to wear (or, let’s be honest, December, with the way our weather tends to go). …

What to stash this week: Pride and support

Teresa of Sunny Day Fiber is celebrating and supporting her LGBTQ+ family members and friends with a rainbow mini skein set. To her, these colors represent “showing up as your authentic and unique self each and every day,” and are a reminder of the importance of being an ally. To that end, Sunny Day Fiber will be donating 20% of their proceeds this month to The Trevor Project, which provides crisis support services to lesbian,…

What to stash while you wait to buy Indie Untangled tickets

Val, a longtime friend and colleague of mine, recently joined our community and started crocheting again after learning as a child. With a background in art and a love for all things vintage, Val recently started creating craft-related art and has debuted her super fun Crochet Maid design. The Crochet Maid’s tail is modeled after granny squares in groovy ’70s hues and she’s available on T-shirts, tote bags, stickers, phone cases and even wall art….

What to stash this week: ‘Yarn’ for warm weather

I’m excited to introduce these new Indie Untangled Yarn Dangle Earrings! They’re crafted in specially-chosen colors of acrylic by the team from Katrinkles in Rhode Island. Well, specially chosen because it was just so hard to decide! They’re available in Rose Gold, Confetti Glitter and Turquoise Opaque colorways.
