Mischief Managed...




As I have told you last week: May is all about YARN , honouring the Handknitters Guild Yarn show which would have been on end of this month bit unfortunately has been cancelled due to the terrible COVID19 pandemic. I have been a bit distracted this week by …YARN.. or should I say “yarn dyeing”. I was only planning a few kilos but before I knew it, I was thinking of these new colour ways, having too much fun obviously and running back and forth from the stock room to my dye studio to prep more and more yarns…lol I am over the moon working with this custom spun IxCHeL Sock yarn with super fine merino and silk : all spun right here in Victoria and I hope you love them too !

So get ready for another exciting yarn update tonight AND also IxCHeL club sign ups for the next period , July, August and September, are open from tonight as well ! It is all happening ! This weekend the May Clubs are getting their dyebath and teasers will be put up on facebook and Instagram, so please keep an eye out for some news on that front.



Stay safe, stay connected and please, do not forget to have fun ! Please let message me if you have any questions okay? Always happy to help and enable !
