Are you going to the Ontario Handspinning Seminar this June? SO AM I!! I'm bringing all my spinnable goodies for sale Friday and then staying for the whole weekend to attend the rest of the event. I am so excited to hang out with other spinners and level up my skills!

If you are coming and have any requests, let me know! I don't plan on bringing any hand dyed yarn for sale otherwise. And if you are hoping for a specific colour of combed top and I have that base in stock, I can dye it for you! Just shoot me a message. Combed top needs time to dry so please get your orders in before June 1st. This is going to be SO MUCH FUN!!

THANK YOU to all the very tenacious fibre nerds who made it out to Fergus today! My booth was only open for about 2hrs before the show was called short for safety with the pouring rain and windy weather. But yall made it so worthwhile even in the terrible circumstances. It was so great to see you all!!💜🥰

Special shout out to my helpers Sophie and Fiona. Definitely couldn’t have done this without you!!

Please cast your best spells for dessication. My stuff is SOGGY!

I’ve whipped up a secret little treat for those coming to my trunk show tomorrow 🤭

Since it’s AND the first at ‘s new location, for Saturday April 25th ONLY- anyone who makes a purchase will get a free micro mini maple sock yarn skein. It’s 10 grams and 40 meters of my Superwash BFL 4ply yarn the sweetest syrupyest colour I could dye up.

My debut at Knit City Toronto was SO MUCH FUN!! An incredible success, I am over the moon with how well it went. The event was so well organized it all went so smoothly. Thank you thank you to Fiona and the team. You made coming to the big city for a big fancy conference much less intimidating and stressful than I was anticipating. I learned so much from you!!

Meeting so many incredibly interesting enthusiastic people was my favorite part. I made so many new friends and got to talk at length and in depth about my favorite things and get inspired by everyone else who shares my passions. Truly the fuel that feeds my soul.

It was so fun to see my local Eastern Ontario friends stop by and say hi!! Love you guys!!

Special thanks to Jaye for all his help and hospitality this weekend. We made such a good team!! We were so on top of things it was like we had choreographed it, but I think that just comes down to Jaye’s superb skillset.

Now it’s time for me to drive my cute little trailer filled with much less wool from Guelph back to Perth and take a little breather before getting ready for the next show! I am so filled to the brim with satisfaction and inspiration I don’t even know what to do with it all!! 🥰

I have come up for air for this brief moment to give you a little cheeky peeky of what I am bringing to Knit Cit City Toronto in a couple of weeks. I have been neck deep in my dyepots since mid January in preparation. I brought in a few new bases in both combed top and yarns and refreshed my skein sleeve designs. I have been a very busy donkey!! Cant wait to see yall in Toronto!!
