What to stash this week: A heritage wool mood

Gabby of Plies & Hellhounds has revealed her mood board for the first-ever installment of the Heritage Wool Collective hand-dyed yarn subscription! The theme is appropriately earthy and has Gabby’s signature moody vibe. I cannot wait to see what she has in store for the yarn, which is a bouncy Corriedale DK from The Ross Farm, located in Pennsylvania, just a few states over from Gabby’s Connecticut studio. Sign up by the end of this month to become a member of our Founding Flock!…

What to stash this week: Holiday weekend wool

I thought it was appropriate that designer Samantha Guerin released her Hearth and Haven hat pattern this week. This simple cabled beanie, and the special colorway from Katlin of Porter Wool Co, is inspired by the comforts of home in wreath form. It is sure to keep you warm this winter and is a delightful and quick knit — I cast on and completed mine during the Knit for Food Knit-a-thon earlier this year….

What to stash this week: Knit with us in 2024

I’m thrilled to open sign-ups today for Where We Knit 2024. This quarterly club, which will begin shipping in February, brings together four dyer/designer dream teams: Bad Lux Designs and Kacey Herlihy, Wooldreamers with 316 Dye Studio and Moody Knitter Design, AT Haynes House Yarns and Mother of Purl and Tanis Fiber Arts and Andrea Rangel.

What to stash this week: A local collaboration

The Conifer Collective, Megan of Huck & Rae Fiber Studio and Meadow of Spindrift Fiber Boutique — have collaborated on a special project called the Heritage Breed Box. They worked with local shepherds to source and developed a blend of Navajo Churro fiber that was spun into DK-weight yarn at a local mill. Each dyer created one warm and one cool tonal color in a coordinating palette, and they left one skein un-dyed to let its natural hue shine. …

What to stash this week: Scary beautiful yarn

Sirena of The Backcountry Knitter was inspired by a photo of a Portuguese man o’ war taken at the Gulf Islands National Seashore, in the “coastal backcountry” of Mississippi, for her installment of the Knitting Our National Parks Series, which is going into its sixth year! There are two “sting-free” colorways — the specked Hydrozoa and the semisolid Beach Shadow — as part of this collection and they are dyed on two bases, plus a sock set.

The yarn is available to …

What to stash this week: Sand knits

Last year, Amélie of Quebec-based Emilia & Philomene collaborated with designer Marion Mursic of Marion Em Knits on a yarn and design inspired by colorful beach shacks that line the sand in the North of France, where Marion resides. The gently speckled colorway, Tricots de Sable, which translates to sand knits, was dyed on a lovely blend of wool and linen that is ideal for working with in the heat of summer. Marion held the yarn double for her Sable Hat pattern,…

What to stash this week: yarn gold in the hills

Susie of Fiber MacGyver transformed nature’s magic — a photo of the Artists Palette in Death Valley National Park, taken by Jon Fischer — into this stunning colorway, Painted Hills. It’s available to preorder through Indie Untangled on two bases through April 21.

Jo of Yarn Therapy has created an enchanted woodland adventure with yarn. This collection of 18 colorways, hand dyed in Yarn Therapy’s solar-powered studio in New Zealand (that is maybe visited by hobbits),…

What to stash this week to stay warm

Lanivendole’s Aestiva wool/linen yarn is pictured here in Florence Spurling’s Winslow Tee. This pattern would require 1-3 skeins of Color 1 and 1-2 skeins of the other three colors (I used Moka, Baltico, Persefone and Tabacco). There are nine currently in stock to choose from. And, if you want a little more wool for some warmth, you can see the Baltico color pairs perfectly with the Harris Sling bag in teal. …
