Ghouls and gals, allow us to introduce the trio you didn’t know you needed. Wednesday, Enid, and Thang. Reimagined through the lens of the Black diaspora. Equal parts eerie and enchanting, they’re serving gothic grace with a side of unapologetic Black magic.

Good afternoon! I just wanted to pop in and let y’all know that there’s plenty of ready-to-ship yarn available in the shop. Everything from lace weight all the way up to bulky. 🧶 Shop link: lolabeanyarnco.com

😍😍😍

If you’re free tomorrow, 10/23, around 7:30 ET, grab your WIP, your drink of choice, and come hang out with us live on YouTube!

Good morning! All Tryin’ To Tell You Somethin’ preorders (pictured below) are packed up and ready to go, as well as all ready-to-ship orders. Pickups with both UPS and USPS are scheduled for this morning.

Instagram gave me a ton of amazing indie yarn dyers, the Queen of whom will always be @lolabeanyarnco.com. She’s amazing. Follow her on both places. Drool over her yarn.

😍😍😍

Just added 400+ skeins to the shop across a bunch of bases. So if you’ve been hunting for a skein or two to round out a project (or start a new one 👀), I’ve got you covered. lolabeanyarnco.com 🧶🫶🏾 #LolaBeanYarnCo

The Final Black Label Drop of 2025 Is Here! We’ve officially opened preorders for the last Black Label installment of the year and it’s available now at lolabeanyarnco.com! #LolaBeanYarnco #BlackLabel #BadBunny

Twisting and labeling on repeat today, with plenty of yarn cooking in the ovens, too. The Strange & Unusual and The Juice Is Loose palettes shipped out yesterday, so they’re officially on their way. Wishing y’all a good one. 🫶🏾🧶 Shop: lolabeanyarnco.com #LolaBeanYarnCo

Got some studio time in today to work on a restock of the Three Crows Fiber bespoke colorway, Three Crows, along with a few coordinating shades. Hope y’all are having a good one. 🫶🏾 #LolaBeanYarnCo

Maybe next time…

I didn’t get much content because we were BUSY! 🧶 Huge thanks to Trish & the @yarnsocialkc.bsky.social team, to my girl @knitterkim.bsky.social, and to every fiber friend who came out to the yarn crawl. I don’t leave my studio often, but when I do, it’s the people who make it worthwhile. 🫶🏾

Landed safe and sound in Kansas City, MO! If you’re nearby, come hang out with me and my friend @knitterkim.bsky.social of Kim Dyes Yarn at @yarnsocialkc.bsky.social today. 🧶

We’ve received quite a few emails from folks who missed out on the Calypso Cowl + Showtime Stripes Hat kit preorder we did to coincide with the release of the patterns designed by our friend Courtney of @flynnknit.bsky.social.

I can’t wait!!!!!!

It’s not my body that’s tired, it’s my mind. Motherhood, marriage, business, surviving this burning world, steering clear of the worst people humanity offers, all while being Black. It’s heavy.

This is a vibe. 😎

“Tryin’ To Tell You Somethin’” A deep purple shade inspired by the song “Maybe God Is Tryin’ To Tell You Somethin’” from the movie The Color Purple. Just like the music, this yarn carries warmth and richness, making it a beautiful choice for projects that deserve a little extra depth and glow. 🧶

I see folks celebrating today’s headlines. That’s your business. But I’m not. We all know who pays the price when racist regimes go scorched earth after losing one of their own. So celebrate if you want, but make it quick. If you thought things were bad before, just wait…

Shipping vibes. 😎 Calypso Cowl and Showtime Stripes Hat kits are heading out first thing tomorrow with UPS and USPS. Don’t forget to tag LBYC and @flynnknit.bsky.social when your squish arrives! 🧶 #LolaBeanYarnCo #FlynnKnit

Hey friends, happy Monday. Things are pretty low-key over here at LBYC today. Mostly emails, twisting skeins, and scrubbing dye pans. 🧶🧵

I LOVE this color. And @textillianstudios.bsky.social too!

September is here, and you know what that means, KC Yarn Crawl! 🧶 We’re packing up and heading to Kansas City, Missouri, and on Saturday, September 20, you’ll find me in person at @yarnsocialkc.bsky.social alongside my friend @knitterkim.bsky.social of Kim Dyes Yarn!

We just want to pause and say a huge thank you to everyone who has picked up copies of @flynnknit.bsky.social patterns and to all of you who grabbed yarn kits to go along with them. Seeing the excitement and the way you’ve rallied around this collaboration has been such a gift.

Kids are always bored until you recommend that they clean their room, read or study. Then they have so much shit to do. 🤣

Class is officially in session, but this isn’t your average study hall, it’s straight out of the Netherworld. @jimmythemodel.com has returned as today’s “model with the most,” giving us another crash course in how to rock the Calypso Cowl and Showtime Stripe hat designed by @flynnknit.bsky.social.

When @flynnknit.bsky.social first sent over photos of her Calypso Cowl and Showtime Stripes worked up in LBYC’s Strange & Unusual palette, I felt like Barbara and Adam stepping into the afterlife for the first time, completely enchanted. 🧶 🧵

😍😍😍

Working on a special something for a special fiber friend. Y’all see the vision? 🧶

What started as Courtney Flynn of @flynnknit.bsky.social showing off her latest LolaBean yarn project quickly spiraled into something bigger, a full-blown Beetlejuice-inspired collaboration! 🧶 🧵 #LolaBeanYarnCo #FlynnKnit #BeetleJuice #CalypsoCowl #ShowtimeStripesHat

You should definitely subscribe to the LBYC and @flynnknit.bsky.social newsletters if you haven’t already, before the curtain rises. Trust me… you don’t want to miss this haunting. 👻 Sign up at lolabeanyarnco.com. 🖤 #LolaBeanYarnCo #FlynnKnit #Beetlejuice

If you don’t mind a little spoiler, here’s a peek at the August installment of the Black Label x LolaBean subscription skeins that are on their way to everyone who took a leap of faith and placed an order. 🧶 #LolaBeanYarnCo #BlackLabelByLolaBean

You, the tee and the jewelry are beautiful!

*punches the air* 🤬

While I don’t normally offer custom colors anymore, I absolutely had to dye one up for MY local yarn store. I thought I’d give you a little background on how it came to be and the inspiration behind “Three Crows.” 🧶 #LolaBeanYarnCo #ThreeCrowsFiber

We got to play delivery crew this week and make a very special drop-off to Augusta, GA’s very own local yarn shop and LolaBean Yarn Co’s newest stockist, Three Crows Fiber! 🧶🧵

Morning dye vibes. music.apple.com/us/album/ras...

There are businesses overseas that I truly love and support, but many of them no longer ship to the U.S. I understand why. It’s complicated and often not worth the risk or cost. 🧵

Something strange and unusual is coming… LBYC + @flynnknit.bsky.social 🧶 #LolaBeanYarnCo #FlynnKnit #Beetlejuice

😍😍😍

See… 😮‍💨

I love what I do. 🧶

Just finished episode 8 of Smoke. Starting 9 now…

Happy Granny Square Day! 🧶

I had to sit my kid down for a talk. If there’s a classmate who, for whatever reason, doesn’t have lunch, she’s absolutely allowed to cover it. But she’s got to stop buying the whole class ice cream every week like she’s some Silicon Valley CEO on a morale boosting spree. 😩

Only took 7 days of being back in school for my kid to come home coughing like she’s worked 20 years in a coal mine. 😑
