A Whole New World, inspired by the song from Disney’s Aladdin, on Shaniko Silk and Corriedale. It might not actually be my favorite song from Aladdin (hello, Friend Like Me!) but I couldn’t resist these colors. 😍 Coming May 10.

Disney songs + creating new colorways in the dye pans have been my go to escape from reality lately. So I’ve combined the two to make some new hand dyed fiber inspired by some of my favorite Disney songs. Coming to the shop 5/10.

I'm going ahead and calling it: this is my color of the summer. Hot House is a rich, fiery, coral red. Am I becoming an orange-red person?! I want to make all the summer tops in this color and just live my best life as a tomato person soaking up the sun. 🧶

Our Feb inspiration, the Beauty Queen 🍅 lives up to its name, being one of the most beautiful (and yummy) tomatoes that I added to my garden last summer. I love watching the green tomatoes subtly shift to shades of pale yellow and then to gold with streaks of orange and coral. 🧶

Is there anything better than a fresh, warm, juicy slice of a beefsteak tomato? 🤤 Add some bacon, lettuce, and Duke’s mayonnaise & you have my perfect sandwich. Beefsteak is our first new coordinating tonal colorway designed to pair with Cherokee Purple. It is a rich ruby red. 🧶

I started working on a crochet hexi blanket using my hand spun yarn from the Heirloom 🍅 club colorways. I love seeing how each skein of handspun works up. Each little hexi is like a snowflake: slightly different in its own way. 🧶

Our February tomato inspiration for the Heirloom 🍅 club was the Beauty Queen. Beauty Queen is a swirly whirly combination of golden yellow and pale orange with a splash of coral red. Who’s craving a tomato sandwich for lunch now? 🤤

Our February Heirloom 🍅 club was inspired by the Beauty Queen tomato. For the fiber, I decided to create an ombré that blends from a pale golden yellow to orange and fiery reds to bring in all the hues of the deliciously beautiful inspiration.
