I boost a lot, so mute my boosts if you don’t like that. For just my toots: https://justmytoots.com/@caramelizedshallots@ohai.social Brooklyn, NY I do not read DMs.

Fresh off the loom: doublewidth throws in integrated plain weave. Still have to fringe, wet finish and brush. Since they are so big, I think I will step on them in the tub to full them.
This is a destash project—which, of course, means I had to buy more yarn to actually do it. 😂 Those stripes are gifted yarns I have had for a couple of decades!
If you don’t see me for a while, I’ll be fringing! 😅

Paws 2 Spindle
@Paws2Spindle@sunny.garden
After living with huskies for 2+ decades, we decided to do something with all the fur that we've collected over the years: spin it into yarn! Then knit it! More huskies and their outdoor adventures can be found over at @Paws2Trail. Icon: a cartoon husky with bi-colored eyes winds yarn he's just spun onto a Turkish spindle. Art by @Mehndi_tgr Banner: 13 balls of white husky yarn arranged in a row from rough to refined on a metal patio table, in bright sunlight.

Question for fiber folks about moths:
Last night, I forgot I had these skeins out drying until after dark. When I went to bring them in, a moth flew up from one of the skeins. These are a blend of wool and dog fur.
Should I be worried that the moth might have laid eggs in the yarn? Should I throw them in the freezer or do something more drastic? I'm keeping them well separate from the rest of my stash for now.

Ooh, look! I made a thing!
A bracing #adapter to allow my planetary gear #embroideryFloss winder (a bit over engineered) to be used with larger #spools/#bobbins to roll up things like #yarn, twine, and paracord.

A #parametric #yarn #bobbin that can be printed to match common cardboard ones, or instead with an end that snaps onto my planetary gear winder.

Awakening Woodland. Fresh spring light filters through a quiet beech woodland in this gentle fresh colourway. Soft leaf-greens, mossy speckles and hints of bark and bud create a refined, wearable palette, perfect for shawls, socks and cardigans that feel calm, uplifting and quietly luxurious for everyday joy.
