We’d sold out of sock sets for Truleigh socks at both of the shows we’ve been to this year but I’ve finally got both colours in the shop.

The Sun is out. Hurrah. So choosing the colours for my next Mirage jumper from @theknittermag may be as far as I get I get! ‘Storm Brewing, Figgy Pudding’, and as yet unnamed newly minted green all on 4ply BFL Masham.
Newly Minted? not a bad idea.

An amazing painting by @edelweiss_knits from one of our postcards. The woolly swirls just make me so happy 😊
Posted @withregram • @edelweiss_knits The final speckles have been added to ‘The Knitting Quince’ Thank you so much to Nicola and Louise @theknittingshed for their inspiring photo and to my lovely art teacher @sarah.teare @minipicassos @mini_picassos_adults who has taught me so much in this new to me medium of oils.

I thought I’d try ‘Frosted’ on our Mohair & Silk Lace. It’s come up nicely. Sadly the frosted plants in the garden don’t look quite so pretty.

Just a quick cup of tea and wool winding before I start the morning’s dyeing.
Unravel was fantastic!
Thank you to everyone who made it so from our lovely customers who came and said hello and brought previous projects along with them, the great, unflagging team at Farnham Maltings and the other stallholders who kept us laughing.
Just going to cast on my Osca Beanie by @hotbutteryarns before I start work.

It’s the 15th Unravel Festival in Farnham starting this Friday and we’ve dyed up some February floral minis for a flowery celebration.

Tickets are available in advance on their website so pop over and get yourself a ticket and come and see us in the Barley Room (and point out that though crocus and hellebore are acceptable, apple blossom doesn’t flower in February!)

My first two colour brioche and, so far, it’s taken me two different patterns, two different cast on techniques and too many attempts to count to get this far.
I may have it finished by @unravelfestival next week or Christmas, I’m not sure which. We’ll definitely have the wool with us though.
Have a lovely weekend, I’ll be knitting Lx

Yarn: Classic DK in Doodle and Provence
