While I'm busy behind the scenes getting everything ready for the launch of my brand new yarn club, I've also been spending some time playing with new colour ideas and revisiting some of my older dye experiments.

And honestly...? I've fallen back in love with some of them. 💕

The funny thing is, these skeins have no names and, even worse, no recipes. 🤦‍♀️ Apparently Past Me thought I'd definitely remember what I did. Spoiler alert: I did not.

But looking at them again, I'm wondering if some of these forgotten colourways deserve a second chance.

💙 A bright tropical turquoise that practically glows.
🌊 A moody ocean-inspired fade with deep navy and soft aqua.
✨ And plenty more colour experiments tucked away in my dyeing notes (and sometimes not in my notes at all...).

So tell me...

🧶 What do you love most?

❤️ Solids
💛 Speckles
💙 Tonals
💜 Variegateds
🌈 ALL OF THEM!

And if you had to give these forgotten skeins names, what would you call them? 👀

✨ Finished Object ✨

I've finally finished this beautiful triangular crochet shawl and I'm absolutely in love with how the colours worked up! 💜🩷💙💚

The yarn created the most gorgeous blend of soft pinks, dusky purples, muted blues and hints of green, and the open lace design makes it perfect for wearing as a shawl, wrap, or oversized scarf.

Swipe through to see the different ways it can be worn! ➡️

The pattern I used can be found here:

I'd love to know...
🌸 What colours do you see first when you look at it?
🌸 Would you wear it as a shawl or a scarf?
🌸 Should I make another one in a different colourway?

If you're new here, welcome! 👋
I share crochet projects, hand-dyed yarn, behind-the-scenes dyeing experiments, and plenty of woolly inspiration. Give me a follow so you don't miss future makes and colourways! 🧶✨
