It's here! It's coming! The Sheroes team series has begun, and we're off to a great start with the King's Champion yarn, the dying video for which is up on YouTube now!

Inspired by the Song of the Lioness Quartet by Tamora Pierce, the King's Champion yarn reflects the main character, Alanna the Lioness, and the colours most strongly associated with her.

The link to the video is here: https://youtu.be/L1ZsvC0VDvY?si=UeUzdXjy05U1gJyJ and I hope you all enjoy!

Hello everyone! So, today I started on a new yarn series... The Sheroes! I'm starting off with King's Champion, a red, purple and gold yarn, which the first video is up on YouTube for as we speak!

Inspired by Tamora Pierce's Tortall Universe books, each of these yarns will reflect the heroines that she has created, and I can't wait to see how these turn out!

Here's the link to my YouTube!

Celestial Moon is coming soon! And in fact, the first two videos are up for it on my YouTube right now! Do you have questions about the spinning creation process? Then please don't hesitate to ask, I am anyways happy to answer!

And here's the most recent video link! https://youtu.be/mPZw89XEm0c?si=1ZwDDKielGnJRIa3

Well, whoops... I forgot to post last week. 😹 But that's ok, because this week I have the full compilation video for the Celestial Sun yarn for you all!!!

Oh. I am so pleased with these colours. The black into the blue. The vibrant orange and yellow. It couldn't have come out better and I am so, so pleased with it! This may be one of the best dye jobs I've done yet with my yarns, but I'll leave that for all of you to judge. ❤️❤️❤️

The link to the video is here! https://youtu.be/REIrxFV_Omg?si=O7gz6QDXbuHbzXx5

So, what's next? The third and final yarn of the set, Celestial Moon! This one will be made the same way I have the Celestial Sun yarn, but it will be dyed using mostly blues and greys. I do hope you'll join me next week when I share the carding video! ❤️

Now, I've also still got some troubles happening with the website. It works and purchases can be made from it, but the most I'm able to do at the moment is add new yarns as they're made (speaking of, Celestial Sun isn't up yet but will be by Sunday), and not much else. I'm aware that there are regular questions in asked regarding my yarn, so I'm going to make an FAQ post for here on Facebook instead and see if I can pin it at the top of the page. If you have any questions, please drop them on there and I will add them to the list! ❤️❤️❤️
