I wish I was allowed to do awesome roars at work like Sabalenka does 🎾 ❤️‍🔥

I love her a lot 🥹

(I could technically roar away - I work completely from home for myself - but my neighbours might ask the authorities to do a wellness check 🤭)

Eight twisted skeins of variegated hand dyed yarn sit side by side diagonally; a neon pastel rainbow runs through the colourways from top to bottom. My left hand is resting in the bottom left of the scene to remind everyone that I'm a real-life person running this small biz, some What Mustard Made yarn labels are in the top right, and some kraft paper ribbon and precut pieces of handdyed yarn are in the top left. Everything is sitting on pastel lilac tissue paper which I use to wrap up orders.

I updated the Zest For Life Bundle photos last week 😻 Top to bottom: Bliss, Euphoria, Joy, and Rapture. The colourways are all available separately as well as in this handy beautiful fade bundle 👌 🧶

Four twisted skeins of hand dyed yarn sit to the left of the photo, with half of them cut off. The yarn is dyed in a variegated manner, using neon purple, turquoise and neon yellow speckles in Bliss (top one), neon pink, turquoise and neon yellow speckles in Euphoria (next one down), neon pink, aqua blue and neon yellow speckles in Joy (next one down), then neon purple, aqua blue and neon yellow speckles in Rapture (the last one). They are sitting on a cream linen cloth, which I haven't ironed because life is far too short and my time is too precious to be spending it ironing. I also find the creases very handy for squaring up my photos! 😅🤷🏻

A shot of a pair of crocheted fingerless gloves made in Voidbow dark neon rainbow yarn. The colours move through the gloves in a very pleasing way, which looks a little bit like spilt petrol.

I created this colourway - Joy - in 2019, and for reasons unknown (these reasons happen to me a lot 😆) I didn't have swatches on the listing. So I have now remedied this, and they are fabulous 🧶 I hope you like it! 🩷

The most beautiful hand knit sock posed on a sock blocker - the way the colourway is dyed creates microstripes of neon pink and blue, with slightly thicker stripes of neon yellow with tiny pieces of orange and green at either end of the yellow. The toe and heel are black.

If you like hats, and you like rainbows, and you like fluffy halos, I just listed three of these yarn bundles on my website 🥳 Contains 6 x 5g Lace Mohair/Silk and 1 x undyed 100g DK Tweed Merino/Nylon/Nepps for £25 🧶

#knitting #knitsky #handdyedyarn

In the top left corner is a little pile of bright Mohair micro-skeins in neon pink, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. In the top right is a cake of undyed tweedy DK yarn, and in the middle is a glorious knitted hat WIP on circular needles. A rainbow moves through the hat in stripes as I'm doing four rounds of each Mohair colour, the undyed yarn creating a marled fabric. There are little flashes of black, brown and grey now and then where the nepps are saying hi.

My first release of Advents is now on the website! 🥳 I do things a little differently - I only make a small amount at a time, then post them out as soon as they’re ready. Then you just pop it away until Dec (or open it immediately and keep the colourways secret!).

I don’t mind photographing swatches too much, but editing them all afterwards makes my brain want to shrivel up and die 😅🫠

These are the colourways from the Variegated Infinity Rainbow, available individually or in a bundle of all eight 🌈

#neonyarn #handdyedyarn 🧶 #knitting #crochet #indiedyer

Eight square knitted swatches sit in a circle overlapping one another. The yarn is variegated, with one colourway containing neon pink and coral, then the next containing neon coral and yellow, the next containing yellow and green, continuing like that through aqua blue, lavender, purple and magenta. There are a few crochet swatches peeking out at the top of the picture.

Gorgeous ones! 😃 I have eight sock blanks on my website, ready to ship 🧶 They’re the last of my stock*, I’m unlikely to order in any more Merino/Nylon blanks in future 🌈

A top-down of a hand dyed sock blank. It’s been hand-painted in a neon rainbow gradient moving through the blank from top to bottom, from (all neon dyes) Pink, into Orange, Yellow, Green, Aqua Blue, Lavender, and ending with Purple.

A top-down of a hand dyed sock blank. This blank has been dyed rolled up, with a neon rainbow applied sideways on top of the roll in (all neon dyes) Pink on one side, into Orange, Yellow, Green, Aqua Blue, Lavender, and ending with Purple. There are lighter and darker saturation sections, and undyed parts, due to the way they were dyed rolled up. As the dye doesn't reach all the way into the middle, one end of the blanks will have more saturation than the other because of this. I think this will work up incredibly interestingly...! I'd love to keep one for myself so I can see how it'll work up in something, but these babies must earn their keep, so none for me!
