Officially cast on #theelbiedress the other day! #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

The final swatch - I am SO happy with this fabric!! Elberdritchel on the new Yak Silk Fingering base. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

This looks OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Wow!!!

#theelbiedress base reveal is: a yak silk blend!! 50% superwash merino, 20% silk, 15% yak 3 ply gives this project just the drape and luster I was looking for, with a cleaner ply construction for a smoother fabric. What do you think?!

I’m SO ready!!

Got a fun new project in the works… and I’ll be tracking the entire process from planning, trialing, searching, unfortunately probably frogging, and everything along the way! Meet the Elbie Dress, in colorway Elberdritchel! #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

Let’s meet our final Ephemeral Club reveal from December - “First Frost”! Inspired by frost-edged leaves at the onset of winter. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

Today we reveal November’s Ephemeral Club colorway - meet “Aglow”, inspired by the cozy views we see through windows on a cold winter night.

Let’s meet October’s Ephemeral Club reveal finally: meet “Childhood”, inspired by moody, chilly Halloween evenings through the eyes of my younger years. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

This weekend I worked on a matching cowl with my bestie, learned to comb and drum card a batt, and do a chain ply! It felt so good to learn these new skills and my mind is swimming with how to use all of them for future projects.

I am SO excited to bring back all these Ephemeral Club colorways in March!!!

I’ve been dying to see what those two become - it’s GORGEOUS!!! Jen is using “Basalt”, a deep black green, against pale and delicate “Mother of Pearl”.

Finally revealing this beauty - meet “Brisk” from my 2024 Ephemeral Club for the month of September! This and its friends will all return in March for a full pre-order. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

Just in time to meet the #showmeyourknits shawl prompt - my finished Interthreading Shawl by sandmadeknits! I used my full Winter Gardens countdown here - this is a great pattern for minis, fades, or prized skeins. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

Sending this gorgeous winter-meets-spring fade palette out to a favorite designer today for a new design! Any guesses what this might become?! From left to right: First Frosr, Hummelo, Barefoot, Winter Gardens, Winter Pool. #indiedyed #indyedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #yarnlovers

This project has been bringing me so much happiness this month so far! I’m loosely using the “ribbed to your measure” tank (for stitch count) to make a long midi dress - I’ve finished fading one way and am now fading back down. It’s so fun! Yarn is from @thefibrefox.bsky.social 2023 countdown.
