If you’re not at Flock this weekend, like myself, I’ve got a bit of entertainment for you. 😅

Fully leaning into my time off to spin my little heart out.
I finished spinning up the braid in under 2 hours. That may be a new record for me. Uninterrupted time + my EEW + Squid Game makes me unstoppable.
I’m planning to spin the included 100g braid, plus another one I just bought, then ply them with the bumps for a gorgeously variegated 2ply.
The spinning bug is back, baby!
Trying to clear some bobbins in preparation for Tour de Fleece and I’ve just finished the 12 20g bumps from Plies & Hellhounds advent last year.

Just finished book 3 of the slowest burn ever and found out book 4 doesn’t release until June 2026 😭
Inside each Calendar, you'll have twenty-four (24) 20 gram mini skeins! Each item will be individually wrapped and numbered for you to open, starting on December 1st. You’ll have the option to add-on a full skein on the same base and/or some fluff if that tickles your fancy. More deets on the page!
My 2025 Advent Calendars just went live! 🩵

The April Color Cube Club reveal! The richness of this colorway was a pleasant surprise and not at all what I expected when I first drew this card. I can’t wait to see how this knits up!
The April club is still available for preorder through tomorrow with orders shipping next week! 🥮🍒
The April clubs are all dyed up but the club is still open throughout the week! I couldn’t resist playing around with some Organic Polwarth combed top I had too! I’ll share the final, dried images shortly.

Can’t tell if these are hot flashes but my temperature sensitivity is v messed up lately. Cooking Easter dinner and I now understand why everyone stands around fanning themselves. 😮💨
Yarn: New Horizons from nekonorbcraftco
Pattern: my go-to vanilla socks on a 2.25mm 9” circs
I knit the first sock back in 2020 and the poor thing has sat all alone for almost five years!! I’m happy to finally be making a full pair out of this beautiful striped yarn. It’s also giving Spring/Easter vibes and I’m here for it!
Happy Saturday and Easter weekend to those that celebrate. I’ve got an oven full of yarn and fiber but I’m starting my morning slow with some coffee and sock knitting.
In a non-yarn-related turn of events, I may have some very good news coming my way next week! 🤞
Speaking of, the Magic & Whimsy Preorder Collection is live!

Cute teensy swatches giving me a serotonin boost today. These are a mixture of colors from the Magic & Whimsy collection (available now!) swatched for a Doppio Sweater.
Which one is your favorite? I’m leaning towards the pink/yellow combo!

Starfall
Nyktos
Moonplume
Plated in Gold
The variegated colorways from the Magic & Whimsy collection. These were originally dyed for the weekly advent in 2024 but wanted to bring them back alongside 4 coordinating tonals.
All of these colors were based off some of my favorite romantasy books. Can you guess which ones based on the names?
I’ve been putting this off for far too long! The Advent of Magic & Whimsy from 2024 is coming back as more than just sock sets! 8 colors total, 4 variegated & 4 coordinating colors on loads of bases 🤗

Nebraska in a nutshell. 69° and sunny, but we’re also in a winter storm watch. 🙃

It may be snowing outside, but these March Color Cube Club skeins are making me very excited for Spring! I love the bright pops of speckles on the soft pink base! 🍊
