It’s official, I love this and wear it everywhere now 🥰 Pattern is @chaseharpole.bsky.social ‘motorcoach’ made with my handspun yarn The flat lay photo is taken before blocking and seaming so you can see the colour interactions #knitsky #knitting #HandSpunYarn 🧶

I definitely gave in and made some green bean casserole, mashed potatoes and gravy… worst at being British award incoming 😅🧶

Apparently almost all the news on my feed has been replaced by the fact that *checks notes* Americans are consuming a meal today We’ll ignore the fact that I love green bean casserole, and cornbread dressing 😅🧶

Not as much knitting time as I wanted this week but I’m making up for it this morning adding my last colour stripe to this cowl. This is all my own handspun and I can’t wait to wear it! Pattern is @chaseharpole.bsky.social ‘Motorcoach’ #KnitSky #knitting #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn 🧶

When you own as many black clothes as I do (aging emos die hard 😂) and you live in the UK where there’s currently 9 hours of daylight (and still waning) you sit up in the morning and do your mending #mending 🧶

Finished these a week or so ago and forgot to post a picture - this is my standard sock recipe in a self striping 4ply, I just needed another pair of socks for the winter #knitting 🧶

Places you can knit: at the best coffee shop in your hometown, or possibly the world - Darkroom Espresso. It’s so great to be back here and have a little time to relax, knit and drink great coffee Pattern is @chaseharpole.bsky.social ‘s ‘Motorcoach’ cowl #HandSpunYarn #HandSpinning #Knitting 🧶

Places you can knit: on the train home. This is is @chaseharpole.bsky.social’s ‘Motorcoach’ cowl using up some of my handspun that was in search of a project. Something gaugeless like this is perfect for those one offs I spin, and I’ll get to wear them too 😊🧶 #knitting #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Why do hate the game so much? The devs are trying so hard. It’s literally early access, be grateful they’re sharing it with us. They can’t just develop 24/7 they have families POV you ask why a £15 game that’s been out for 2 years doesn’t have a jump button It’s on the roadmap… #gaymer #gamer

Does anyone else get a sinking feeling when they see a CrossCountry service on their itinerary? Time to get crushed into a carriage where more space is given to lumpy decorative plastic bulkheads than passengers #UKTravel #HandSpinning

I got myself one of those darning looms as a treat because I’ve always fancied having a go at it. I can already darn with a needle - are they any good and what do I need to know before it gets here? #Darning #VisibleMending #Mending #HandSpunYarn

My mum died a few days ago. She was a wonderful Mum who was honest and kind with a fierce sense of justice. She taught me so much. I am lucky to have a great support network around me, but updates will be limited while we are grieving this profound loss #HandSpinning #HandSpinYarn

How many of you all are in the “haha all this talk of second sock syndrome is totally relatable” to the “shit I have ADHD” pipeline with me? #knitting #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #ADHD

some Sunday spindle making, with a very fine Polwarth top yarn attached. The spindle is so cute, about 15cm long and the whorl is 5cm across #HandSpunYarn #HandSpinning #SpinnersOfBlueSky

Starting to organise my yarns and fibres, here’s a few finished skeins that haven’t found a project yet Do you always spin for a specific purpose or do you sometimes spin for the joy of it, and accumulate these extras? #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #SpinnersOfBlueSky

You’ve all been so good, I think you deserve another spinning meme Also do you rest or go straight on with the plying? Honestly I’ve done both and don’t see that much difference, but maybe that’s because of the kinds of yarn I usually spin #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #SpinnersOfBlueSky

I’m curious: does anyone else name their spinning tools? My wheel has a name, if yours does too let me know, I want to see what kind of names are out there #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #SpinnersOfBlueSky

Rainbow yarn is finished, it had a LOT of energy coming of the bobbin, but dried perfectly into a balanced skein after some light finishing #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Spinning a blend of Falkland Corriedale & Perendale. It’s so smooth and happy to become yarn, it’s almost spinning itself. The last time I spun Corriedale it puffed up a lot during finishing, so will be interesting to see what happens with this #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #SpinnersOfBlueSky

Spotted out and about, we all live on Spinning Path really #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn #SpinnersOfBlueSky

Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In My Lane. Focused. Flourishing. #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Putting together a little space for fibre in front of the window, will probably end up re-arranging it as I use it and get to know what I like, moving is hard! #HandSpinning #CraftSpaces #SpinningWheel #HandSpunYarn

Really pleased with how evenly filled this bobbin is…. It’s the little things #Handspinning #HandSpunYarn

These gorgeous colour changes are making me so happy! Wool is UK Jacobs #Handspinning #HandSpunYarn

Bit more of this Jacob’s spin now that the colours have moved on to the greens/blues/purples #HandSpunYarn #Handspinning

Please enjoy my latest spin, a rainbow braid of UK Jacob’s, from Penberth Yarns. This will be chain plied to keep the colour changes distinct. In other news my wheel, Téodor, got a new drive band and an oiling today and he’s very happy #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

It’s fine if you are attracted to Pedro Pascal, but can we not make people who aren’t feel othered or somehow “not queer enough” because they aren’t. It’s ridiculous that I have to say this, but there we are. #PedroPascal

Tw: fatphobia Hi! Unfriendly reminder not to be fatphobic when dragging bad people. Drag them for their shitty behavior not their body shape ✌️ You think you’re being funny but I promise you are not, all you’re doing is hurting your fat friends who absolutely notice how you treat other fat people.

Places you can spin: at the beach (if you’re careful about sand!) #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

It’s been an interesting few months, moved into a new place in a new city, with all the upheaval that entails, but I feel settled now, and I’m back to my spinning #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Prepping for a house move so at the moment I’m spinning something I can easily pick up and put down in the evenings - “default” singles. This is merino but not especially fine, the micron count is a little thicker in this one #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Not looking for advice, just sharing 🙂 I’ve not been here for a while because a few weeks ago I had to pack a bag and get on a train urgently. It’s been a stressful time and at some point I put my spinning projects away while I dealt with other things … 1/6 🧵 #Handspinning #HandSounYarn #AdultADHD

Made some 3-ply merino on my spindle stick, and wound it with the nostepinne. Finished yarn isn’t super consistent but is about 20-24 WPI in the main #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

I discovered overnight oats this week, and they’ve literally changed my life 🥣

Haven’t much energy for anything lately except spinning miles of my default singles on a drop spindle so here’s a meme #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

The other day I posted about spinning while waiting for my tattoo appointment, so here’s an update on my new tattoo now it’s healed up some - mushrooms! They’re on my inner forearm. By Rebecca Vincent who is literally amazing #HandSpinning #Tattoo

Warm enough yesterday for my first park spinning of the year. You can see the crocuses out in the spindle pic, spring is finally here! #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Another meme because I feel like a LOT of us have similar (if not entirely identical) stories #HandSpunYarn #HandSpinning

Bluesky: pictures of hand spun yarn, spindles and wheels, chats about spinning techniques and inspiration Instagram: influencers mixing together different coloured sand telling you to buy a thing #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Spent this morning trying this flame yarn from “The Spinners Book of Yarn Designs” A spun single plied around a commercial silk thread, with a few beads thrown in as well. A lot still to learn in terms of regularity and control but I was pleased with this for a first try #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

Updates to my little technique study in the longwise striped top. On the left (larger skein) is the first skein where the colours were separated from the fibre and made into rolags. On the right (smaller skein) is a skein made by spinning from the fold 🧵/1 #HandSpinning #HandSpunYarn

A bit of a technique thread - I bought this fibre that has longwise colour stripes with not really any idea how to spin it without getting it muddy, we had a bit of discussion about that the other day, so I’ve been experimenting 🧵 /1 #HandSpunYarn #Handspinning
