New colourway called “I love blue, just not this one”. It’s a bright blue with navy speckles. I know, it’s too vibrant, I should put some grey over it to make it palatable to a larger population! Grey dye solution is like a magic potion to sell yarn but I think the world is dark enough and needs colour!

“Imaginary Frog”, so called because I don’t know if any real frogs come in this colourway but they totally should! It’s designed to pair perfectly with “Sour Apple Candy” and is a fun departure from my usual palette.
Don’t worry, I know “you should stick to flowers, love” (as a non-customer once put it) if I want to actually sell yarn but please allow me a little artistic indulgence occasionally.

“Sunny Disposition”, a gorgeous warm honey mustard solid colour that just sings happiness. It is a more subtle alternative to the bright yellows I usually dye and does not fluoresce under UV light. It combines beautifully with “Sunshine Over Perth”.

Aran and DK at Yarndale. I was in uni on Monday and am again today, but we unloaded the van and returned it yesterday. I’ll need to clean everything that’s touched the ground in the animal mart tomorrow and then I can unpack the yarn afterwards.
I don’t think my stock levels are very inaccurate but I’ll need to check everything anyway. Advent Calendars and Twelve Days of Christmas sets are ready to ship. Thank you.

“Sunshine Over Perth”, a special colourway dyed exclusively for @thescottishyarnfestival this weekend. We are expecting it to be warm, with temperatures in the 20s, so think summer while planning. There are on-the-door tickets if you’re a more spontaneous type, and it would be a lovely day trip on the Sunday for those who prefer the quieter day.
