Garden Colours of June
The title's self-explanatory I think.. I just love seeing the colour combat ions that my garden throws at me. This is mostly in view from the kitchen sink where I do my dyeing, so it does influence what goes into the monthly updates. Anyway... Enjoy!

5th of July Update Preview (Part 2)
Welcome to part two of tomorrow's update preview! It's just photos of yarn, but I thought the different colour combinations might help you decide (or make it worse!). First of all I did do five batches of Tempo 4ply (superwash wool/nylon) - they are Dandelion, Compost, Coppice, Steel and Antique Rose (which is a surprisingly difficult to photograph colour - it's very pale lilacy pink). Ok and the final hand dyed yarns for the update are all on Oakworth 4ply (100% superwash Polwarth wool). I am really loving this yarn and it seems you are too (it's nice to know...

5th of July Update Preview (Part 1)
On Sunday, we have a lovely big update for you, hopefully at 2pm UK time, assuming I've found a 3G signal at some point before that! There's loads of stuff included, and I won't go through it all, but not pictured here are Original Stripe Quadratic kits, and Aisling kits in Titus 4ply in the two original colour combinations - Rambling Rose/Ice and Whispering Grass/Hibiscus. As always, numbers are very limited. They'll be in the kits section of the website. I will show you the flock though - and it's not just sheep! There are Herdwick ewes, tups, and LAMBS!...

Last week's colour inspiration
Whilst I work I'm constantly snapping away on my phone when new colour combinations pop up - whether that's in the sink for a soak, or hung up on the drying rack. So I thought I'd share a few instead of just hording them on my phone! By the way, some of these are on the website, some are not (because they're off to retailers). Above: Rambling Rose (left) and Dark Oak (right). Above: Steel (top), Geum (middle/left), Wild Raspberry (middle/right), Rambling Rose (front/left), Linen (front/right). Above: Steel (grey), Stone (oatmeal), Driftwood (beige), Algae (green), and Salvia (purple). Above (top...
