Baby one ply - all spun up!














































Shadow is making something for a new born, so I offered some homespun. Nothing like fresh, soft pure wool hand spun and hand knit next to a babies skin. Love it!
She wanted either orange, yellow or green. With the gorgeous green mountains all around me inspiring me every day how could I not dye some gentle green?
The end product is going to be a soaker so aran/bulky weight was the aim. I got 108 metres to 70g, should be enough for a newborn soaker.
Hope she likes it and it knits up well.

Autumn Update.






















Well I am back from a really relaxing, refreshing holiday in the sun. I have plenty of inspiration and kilos of wool to soak up the luscious colourways I have in mind.

I'll be putting the wool on my store to view only on the 9th of September. It will become available to purchase as the clock turns to the 10th. Grab your choices quickly as I am really busy with hospital appointments this month, so don't know when i'll be re-stocking.

Custom Orders are still fully booked. I won't be opening up my list for a while yet.

Current custom orders are up to date.

Carley, Mia's cardigan just needs arms, her longies need cuffs and her hat has not been cast on yet.

Carolyn, your wool is being dyed this week.

Jo Halobaby - your wool is ready when you are.

Paid for Undyed wool orders are being posted tomorrow.

Craft Swap was from Karen.


So you heard me squee a couple of weeks ago when my secret craft swap arrived. I found out it was from Karen a fellow cloth nappy nut. Amazingly she had never thought about selling her work, but it is really well made, more so than some of the wahm work I have bought in the past!

Thought I'd post a few pics of the bag in action for Karen to see :)))))))))
