Never thought it would be 2025 & I'd be debating placing a big order for wool from Canada because I don't know how much longer it will be before I can't if this πŸ’© rhetoric continues (or escalates 😬). πŸ˜ πŸ˜‘ I'm so sorry about this, Canada. I didn't vote for him. πŸ’ πŸ€¬ #knitsky #yarn #craftsky

First day of the EGS Winter Spin done. #spintogether #yarn #handspinning #crafts #handmade

Okay #knitsky. Does anyone have a good video of someone knitting with dpns? I don't want a tutorial, I just want to watch about a dozen rounds being knit, because dpns always feel so awkward to me and I want to see how folks who prefer them are juggling the needles. Maybe I've missed something.

The festive Corriedale holiday stocking. Knit from handspun Corriedale yarn and not finished in time for the holidays. πŸ§ΆπŸ˜‚ #knitsky #knitting #handspun #handspinning #yarn #crafts #handmade

Festive Corriedale being festive. I eventually knit this into a holiday stocking. #handspinning #handspun #yarn

Noticed a lot of my handspun stash was complimentary colors, so time to bust the stash a bit. Now if only I could figure out what to do with 500 yards of tacky rainbow DK Icelandic. 🧢 #knitsky #knitting #handspun #yarn #crafts #handmade #handspinng

Just me on a Monday, once again liking photos of fiber and knitting so I don't doom scroll. Passing around that dopamine jolt for everyone today. πŸ§Άβ˜• #knitsky #fiber #handspinning

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Kraken cowl! Knit in MCN dyed by BlueBarn in "Black Magic" and the white is an assortment of handspun samples in a mishmash of fibers. The MCN is a disappointing base and develops fuzzies fast, do not recommend.πŸ§ΆπŸ’€ #knitsky #handspun #yarn #crafts

Bobbin shot. 🧢 I've been spinning this while reading so it's a miracle I haven't made too much of a mess of it. Another 200g to do before I can get to work on the shawl I have planned. πŸ’€β˜• JAT Harvest Hues top in colorway Flax spun on Cerberus, one of my Oman wheels. #handspinning #yarn #knitsky

Knitting slow gradients is the best thing. Knitting lace and with linen is magical too, but gradients are instant satisfaction. πŸ™‚β€β†”οΈ 12th night cowl knit in handspun merino/Targhee (undyed) and handspun Punta Arenas (dyed by Flannel Cakes) #knitsky #knitting #yarn #handspun

Just me, scrolling and liking pretty pictures of yarn, knitting, and fiber. πŸ§Άβ˜• #knitting #yarn #handspinning

The Twilight Zone episode "He Lives" should not feel so terrifying and relevant in 2025.

Hello there, #knitting BlueSky. And #crafts and #handmade. Just me bringing in a lace shawl that's too big for one person to photograph. πŸ˜… #laceknitting ?
