✨Catching Fireflies✨ on Lustrous Lace Base is just as magical as I figured it would be! That extra silky shine makes the colours glow just right, and the speckles bring the best of what hand dyed yarn has to offer, as usual!

Loving this lineup of some of the most classic Forever Colourways, all dyed on Hidden DK, and expertly chosen by @pondsidecrochet Frost, Antique Pink, Marilyn, Ladylike and Olive make for one romantic and dreamy colour palette! I can’t wait to see the magic Sandy created with this beautiful set!

📣Quick Announcement 📣 I’ll be taking a short break from the studio, for a family holiday to kick off the summer. All orders placed between June 13th and June 24th will ship out by Thursday, June 26th 🧶

💙 Royal 💙 shown here on Luxe Sock Base is such a rich, saturated colourway. It goes through three different layers in the dyeing process!

Every fibre enthusiast knows when it’s time to downsize their ever growing collection, when faced with the question of ‘exactly how many hours of crafting time do I actually have in a day?’

That ‘fresh off the knitting needles feeling’ is hitting just right today! Finally finished that handspun baby blanket I’ve been working on, and it turned out even more gorgeous than I could have imagined, I’m so happy with it. The best is when the back is just as pretty as the front!

So delighted by this unexpectedly beautiful colour line up! Antique Pink, sandwiching Olive and Frost, making a lovely, soft colour combo! All dyed up onto Dreamy DK Base, this palette is so inspiring!

Dyeing up One of a Kind yarn fades is some of my very favourite ways to dye yarn! This set, dyed onto Classic Worsted Base, took its colour inspiration from some hand spun yarn I had listed, and I just know the recipient will have tons of options for patterns with a set like this.

Turquoise & Caicos shown here on Lustrous Lace Base, is a happy and vibrant colourway that will always be a shop favourite around here! And of course, dyed onto this extra fine merino/ silk base, is extra glowy, shiny, and really showing it at its best!

And one last push to top off the mini skein inventory around here! The Fade Section of the shop is bursting with amazing colour palettes, there is definitely something for everyone right now!

A few absolutely incredible mini fades have landed in the shop! And all I can do is fantasize about casting on a #ExtraLiteBright sweater with them, can you imagine?! You can find these, and so many more, in the Yarn Fade Section of the shop! https://hiddenpondyarns.com/collections/yarn-fade-sets

Mission accomplished with this incredible spin! I love the finished yarn so much, I’m going to go ahead and spin the rest of this 100% Polwarth fibre up, to get a sweater quantity of hand spun yarn 🤩 #hiddenpondyarns #handspunyarn 🧶

Source of The Wind on Polwarth by @wee.chickadee The perfect balance between rich forest greens, punchy aqua blues and that incredible burnt golden brown that only Jenn can ever achieve 🏆😘 #HandSpunYarn #HandDyedFibre 🧶

Quick fit check for my first #BasicVNeckPullover sweater! Knit with ‘Streets of Arklow’ dyed on my Luxe Sock Base, the body is about 1-2 inches shorter than what I usually wear. Going to have to pull back allllll of the 2x2 hem to make it right 😭 but it will be worth it in the end! #knitting 🧶

Happy Camper has quickly become my new favourite green! It’s that classic, earthy hue but with some subtle oomph to it. Shown here on Dreamy Sock, I find it has such a wonderful golden aura to it, especially when dyed onto untreated yarn bases 🧶 https://hiddenpondyarns.com/products/happy-camper

🦚 Wild Peacock 🦚 on Dreamy Sock base turned out just as magnificently as I imagined! Deeps teals, blues, a mauves are any jewel tone lovers dream. And as usual, the dyes come out so beautifully muddled and smudgey on this untreated yarn base. https://hiddenpondyarns.com/products/wild-peacock

Witch Boots is a shop classic and a fan favourite around here, all year round! This deep, mysterious purple, shown here on Squishy Sock Base, never fails to come through for any of your projects! 🧶 https://hiddenpondyarns.com/products/witch-boots #handdyedyarn #hiddenpondyarns

I’m really good at starting new projects 😅 Just a little glimpse at a few things I have on the go at the moment! I hope whatever you’re working on today, whether it’s starting or finishing, is bringing you lots of joy! ❤️🧶❤️ #yarn #knitting #indiedyer

My obsession with 3ply yarn continues, with this giant 890yard/260gram skein of handspun Targhee. The colours, the bounciness, everything about this project was a joy! You can find both the skein, and the sets of fibre, now listed in the shop! #Handspunyarn 🧶 #HiddenPondYarns

Plying these beauties together tomorrow and can’t wait to see all the greens, blues, and golds collide! Spun thin, with 100% Untreated Targhee, I’m so curious to see how much the final yarn will pouff up after a bath 🧶 #HiddenPondYarns #HandSpunYarn

Helllllo beauties from the Bright Lights Collection! Shown here on Classic Worsted Base, Epic Pink, Highlighter Yellow and High Voltage Blue are blindingly fun colourways and perfect for the hot weather ahead! #HiddenPondYarns #HandDyedYarn 🧶
