I have managed to get a few more things up in my shop. These are beautiful Tarndie and Silk Polwarth. Again photos are not true to the actual fibre. Also true to form there is only 1 of each.

Ok so I have been a bit quiet lately. Still here still dyeing fibre and yarns. These are some of thr Aussie Bale, Bale 24 that I have dyed recently. Bale 24 is a Mouse Grey which I have over dyed. I love overdying grey, you get a depth of shade which does not seem to happen with white fibre. I am having real problems photographing things so been a bit slack in getting things on to the web shop. These 3 are much darker in real life, I just cant get them to photograph right. Anyway I have given up and they are now in my online shop . Link is in my bio.
I will have some more to add in the coming days.i have also added a couple more colours in BFL with nylon.

Fibre Frolic is fast approaching . I will hopefully have some new yarns including a natural grey Shetland and BFL in both DK weight and 4ply. Plus a small amount of a BFL tweed yarn which I really like for its rustic qualities and it is great for Gnomes.

2 new colours on Sock Yarn. As yet they dont have names. First is a mushroom base with chocolate splashes and pink speckles. While the 2nd is a Royal blue base with light and dark blue splashes with neon pink speckles and splashes. As yet these don't have names. The brown one was going to be Chocolate Lily but now I am not sure.

My latest gnome. Meet Gnoel my first colourwork Gnome. He was a challenge but quite pleased with the final result. The contrast of the greens wasnt as good as I hoped but I still love him. I used some Heirloom Merino Fleck which is a great yarn I have discovered for Gnomes. Being an 8ply
It is great for larger Gnomes. # knittingnomes

Bendigo Project cast on is this Saturday 28th. I still have a couple of Kits left for both Mail Clad Socks by Tess Vandekolk and Sheep Show Socks and Sheep Show Mitts by Kath Martin. I can't guarantee you will get them in time but certainly next week so you can join in.
I will also probably have a couple of kits with the oringinal yarn that I used for my Mail Clad Socks. Not the excate colour but the same yarn which was a BFL and nylon sock yarn. These will be available at the Black and Coloured Fibre at Mittagong on 19th April.
