Have you signed up for my newsletter ?

Head over to the website to add your details. I promise not to bombard you with spam (even though I loved spam fritters as a kid) but you'll be at the front of the queue for new information.

Thank you as always for your support. You don't know what it means to me that you comment, like and purchase yarn from me and sharing your makes. This is why I love what I do.

Sorry folks I'm not going to be at @rightonyourdoorstep event tomorrow. I've caught a cold and don't want to be spreading any germs around. I also won't be doing a postal run today.

My plans to get restocked after @perthfestivalofyarn will take a bit longer, but at least I can make progress on my #travelmode shawl by @sosuknits

I'm a bit late with the KAL but nevertheless it's a great project with enough thinking when my heads a bit full of the cold and manageable sections.

After a busy few weeks I'm going to be participating in a @rightonyourdoorstep event on Saturday 17th September at Westhill.

Looking forward to seeing all the beautiful crafts on display. Please pop by and say hello and if there is any yarn you specially want me to take, send me a message and I'll make sure to take it with me.

Now the decision on what to take !

And just like that @perthfestivalofyarn is over. Thank you so much to Eva for organising another amazing event in extraordinary circumstances. It was lovely to speak to so many 'well kent faces' and lots of lovely new customers. Please bear with me while I unpack tomorrow and get the dye pans on the go again.

I've managed to get a wee haul of amazing items which I will share tomorrow.

New Yarn Festival alert 🎉🎉

A date for your diary. Friday 2nd and Saturday 3rd June 2023 in Galashiels, a hop, skip and a jump from the @greattapestryscotland there will be a new fibre festival in town.

I am so excited to be a vendor at @tangledgalashiels as it's not only gives me a chance to see a beautiful part of the country, but also catch up with yarn friends and meet lots of fellow fibre fans.

Give them a follow on their social media platforms to find out a bit more about the people behind the festival and those who are bringing lots of amazing products to this celebration of fibre.

We hope to see you for a beautiful event at the village hall tomorrow- a full list of unique and lovely vendors bringing everything from local yarn to furniture made using whisky barrels to a delicious array of treats and sandwiches from @cupandcake_lochness 🫶🏻🧶💓🪡☕️🧁

It may be an inclement day, but inside will be lots of colour, enthusiasm and vendors....and cake...did I mention the cake.

It's been heavy rain here in Aberdeenshire, but I've been too busy packing up for @perthfestivalofyarn and thinking about those crisp autumn days when the colours of the trees are showing their beauty and lots of different colours. This gorgeous yarn on the merino alpaca silk base reminds me of this time of year.

I'm off on my travels this week. First to Drumnadrochit for the #highlandmeetthemakers event on Thursday and then heading to Perth to set up on Friday for @perthfestivalofyarn on Saturday and Sunday.

I'm trying to work out layouts, but I think in my usual style I'll just change my mind as I'm going along. Who needs a plan !

I hope that you can come along to an event as I love catching up with you all.

This is also the perfect opportunity to find those perfect skeins for a MKAL that may be starting soon 😀

Any website orders may have a delay in posting as I'm packing up tomorrow and will hopefully be unpacking less next Monday.

repost from @perthfestivalofyarn 🐑🐑🐑 IMPORTANT TICKET UPDATE 🐑🐑🐑

Tuesday 6 September will be your last chance to buy your advance tickets from our website. We are relieved to be able to once again offer tickets on the door, but as always, these are limited due to our venue's capacity and so will be sold on a first come, first served basis. All on the door tickets will be cash only (£12.50 each) and if we have any of our talk tickets left then these will also be made available on the door for £10.00 each. Please note we are unable to reserve tickets on the door.

We are currently experiencing an increase in emails regarding "missing" tickets. We made some changes to the way we issue and create tickets for entry to the Festival this year and these are clearly detailed at the top of our ticket page. "You will receive two separate emails from sales@perthfestivalofyarn.uk. The first will say that your order is processing. The second will say that your order is complete. This second email is your ticket. It has a unique order number on it and your name. You must either print or bring a copy of this with you to gain entry to the Festival."

Our small team are getting ready to provide our 60+ vendors, presenters, podcasters, and designers with the additional support they need in the days running up to the Festival and we would ask you to please check the extensive information provided on our website, including the FAQs, which we have honed in the last 6 years should you have any questions. We will be unable to respond to emails and social media messages / comments after Thursday evening as we will be on site setting up ready to welcome you all. Please also be aware that we do not always get Facebook notifications of comments.

Please wear a mask if you can as many of our vendors, Team, attendees, and loved ones remain clinically vulnerable.

See you all soon and safe travels when the time comes.

Shop has been updated with lots of semi solids. These would be perfect for a pop of colour or combining into a larger project. From cool blues to hot pink which is your favourite?

It's that time of year for deciding on the colours for the @westknits MKAL. I've watched the video and so excited about the possibilities. I was dyeing up tonals yesterday so there may be more options added to the website.

These are at a special price of £80.

If you want to see colour combinations together please let me know. I'll also be at @perthfestivalofyarn next weekend if you want to make a selection in person and even mix and match with other dyers.

Some of these colourways may be dyed to order as I'll be packing up stock early next week, but will be shipped in plenty time for cast on 6th October.

I was chatting to my husband about upcoming events and he made a comment that "stash" could be a negative representation of all of the lovely skeins that we collect from an LYS or yarn festival.

After a wee bit of research I decided that trove is a much better word. It immediately makes me think of treasure, cos let's be honest, finding that one skein that you fall in love with is like a treasure.

If you are looking for a lovely day out in the Highlands, why not pop along to Drumnadrochit's Blairbeg Hall for a selection of local and lovingly produced items.

If the thought of yarn and scenery doesn't tempt you... there is also cake !

Please share this event to all your contacts, it's a great free way to support this local event.
