Thank you so much! 🥹 I had been planning on doing just this batch and then one for Valentine’s, but the response has been so warm that I think I may do another run of it next week. ❤️ 💜

100g, 100% Fine Merino Wool skeins, hand-dyed in our The Opal colorway.

Bulky weight with single (1) ply, this is a great yarn for fun wearables such as hats, scarves, or cowls. This yarn has a unique boucle texture which will be reflected in the finished garment.

We do have all of our stock, but don’t have any displays, so take a peak at our scent catalogue while you’re here for our full line of scents. Yarn is already going fast so be sure to grab some early if you can!

My spouse Jen will also be running zine making workshops! Come find us in MV3 next to @cloudedstitches.bsky.social !

Of course, it’s what I’m here for! 💜

Hello, thank you so much! Yes on the hat, depending on the pattern, you can get two hats out of a skein. The scarf will depend on the pattern. One might be enough, but each pattern has a suggested yardage of yarn + the weight they’re going by. Without a pattern my best gestimate would be two skeins.

When I’m carrying too much yarn, I’ve found casting Ease Burden helps keep me from being over encumbered. Then I can add more yarn in my next dungeon run!

Can’t make the haul out to New York, but local to PVD? You can catch our soaps with our friends at @smallformatpvd ! Swing by for good sips, good eats, and good smells.

We’ll also be back for Small Business Saturday with @pvdartisansmarket at the @waterfireartscenter so you can catch us there!

Now there is just one listing for all the collections and it links to a form after purchase where you can make your selections. No more e-mails, no more waiting, just a more streamlined process for y’all!
