I see your knitted octopus and raise you a needle-felted squid

@oldearthaccretionist @yarndarling @softbutchtaako

That’s cute as hell

hee, that’s adorable!

Somebody just sent this to me and I have never felt so dragged in my LIFE

(I came out to have a good time and I honestly feel so attacked right now.)

😂😂😂

Accurate.

A Long Beanie made into a slouchy hat for a lady with a 23" head by adding an inch in length and eight stitches to the diameter. Knit in our handspun from our coloured fleeces (not dyed).

The Captain America Spinning Wheel is built, and it MOVES.

OH MY GOD IT’S AMAZING!

And how frakking cool will it look when you’re spinning with it? 😀

TdF Day 6 progress: Finished the first half of “Fairy Flutter” and started the second. Would like to get this spun up before I go to my spinning guild tomorrow so I can ply it there.

Gorgeous. Looks like maybe an Ashford Traditional wheel, double drive single pedal? Could be wrong, but it looks a lot like our Traddy from that angle.

blue- 50% Merino/25% Shetland/12.5% Bamboo/12.5% Firestar Colourway Catherine Howard from Hilltop Cloud 4ply
98g $35 (333m)

My cat needs a lump removed so I’m selling some handspun.

This is a Wool/Bamboo/Firestar blend from Hilltop Cloud. It’s a range of soft blues and pinks with the shimmer of glitter in there too.

50% Merino/25% Shetland/12.5% Bamboo/12.5% Firestar

Colourway Catherine Howard from Hilltop Cloud

This averages out to an 4ply (sock/fingering weight) and is made up of two singles. It’s quite well balanced and knits up in to a great fabric. It’s definitely soft enough to have against your skin. I have really sensitive skin and have no problems with this. I don’t think it’s spun tight enough for hard wearing socks but I haven’t had much experience with sock yarn. Would be great for mitts, hats, scarves, shawls etc. (You can knit a decent shawl size with this yardage Ravelry Patterns)

It’s 98g/3.4oz and 333m/364yards

$35 plus postage. Message me if you’re interested

Please share.

I’ll edit this to add links to the other yarns for sale once I’ve posted them

I haven’t had the energy to take professional looking photos but if you want more detailed ones I can try.

O’Reilly goes in for his lumpectomy tomorrow. The vet who saw us on Monday thinks it might be a calcified cyst (she tried to put two different needles in it for a sample and there was no give whatsoever, she gave up). It’s day surgery, so it’s not as expensive as it could be, but we are still living on a fixed pension, and we did just drop nearly a grand on our car at the beginning of the month. Any sale will help us meet out bills in time and pay for groceries.
