Time for waffle weave!
Posts by The Yarn Underground
Better double down on it, just roll that long one up and have a little wrist cushion ๐คช๐
Mmmm cones. 1st blanket, all cotton, 2nd blanket wool weft on cotton warp.
Yep I could buy a blanket cheaper but it would not be this cool, provide hours of challenge and entertainment, nor be a repository of memories such as this.

Coffee time. With cats
Dude. Nice sweater!
Aaand lashed back on to continue in wool.
Fixing a couple booboos then a wash!
Cutting the doubleweave off! So excited.

A little fresh Cashmere Squeeze from the dye pots, hitting the walls today!
Doctors offices and bus stops, why wouldn't you take up knitting!
Blocking my new hat today. Hand spun yarn of Montana grown cormo Wool, slow fashion at its best.

I have been trying to order my favorite base from there for quite a while... I had no idea this was coming.
Woah
Thank you
This is how The Yarn Underground supports ranchers, mills, and the fibershed-- www.yarnunderground.com/shop/yarn/sp...
Brooklyn Tweed is ceasing yarn production. Kraemer Mills who did some of their production is closing.
Stonehedge to close, Zeilingers too?
A private equity firm now owns Knit Picks, Connecting Threads, Berroco AND just bought Jimmy Beans Wool + MadTosh & DellaQ.
Shop local, folks, before its gone.
New warp.

A little bit of overshot weaving, what an interesting structure to play with.
Thanks to the Paliuse Hills Wesvers Guild for putting it on!
Weaving workshop this weekend, finishing up my threading with moral support.
Who says wool isn't for next to skin wear?? Squishy 2x2 rib in small mill yarn, I need to look up grafting in rib to do a better job joining my racerback straps.
Oo, overshot?
Double weave, off the loom and washed. Mistakes made, learning is usually my goal, look at all those colors and values tho!

Yarn shipment sat in Buffalo NY for 7 days after coming from Canada. Now tracking says it's in Ontario again, conveniently in time to be hit with a new tariff? Wtf.
Reference the last post I made and Cashmere Squeeze, the most luxurious yarn I dye. It sells at $40 /4oz. Are you ready to pay $52???
Shop our late winter Palouse Yarn handdyed Cashmere Squeeze update if you're in the mood to support local twice over! www.yarnunderground.com/shop/yarn/ha...
This is me in a cute Dripping Honey pullover, which took less than 4 skeins!
Hope it helps!
Lots of learning with my double weave project here-- fun color combos, and check out the unintended tracking.

Anyone see these yet? It's a colorwheel that takes into consideration the hue and chroma and distance to other colors. And it totally agrees with the color choices in my sweater.
