Fox Paws!!!! 🦊 🐾 More color for #showmeyourknits. I remember @xandypeters.bsky.social being intrigued because I made mine with variegated yarns. The trick is alternating with solids. #bskyknits #knitsky #knitting #handdyedyarn 🧶
A cloud of natural colored beige fiber and a phang-style wooden supported spindle are sitting on top of the photographer’s laps. The spindle has woodburning art of snow queen and snow flakes on it. The photographer’s right hand is gently placed on top of the fiber cloud.

Aw I’m so glad to hear you had a good day! Thank you for sharing the pictures 🥰 I hope today is loads of fun too. Stay hydrated Team Melly!
I don’t know what to do with this compliment 🥲😭❤️
A cowl crocheted out of a mixture of beige yarn and variegated handspun yarn is placed on top of an outdoor chair. The handspun yarn changes colors in between different shades of orange and light blue. The chair is sitting on a garden of rosemaries, with an orange dropped to the ground and blue agave peeking in the sides of the picture.
I had left the seams unsewn for weeks but the cowl is finally finished! I gifted it to a dear friend who’s been such a big champion of my fiber arts hobbies 🧡🤍 (6/n)

The floor is lava.

The polwarth family is growing. This spin is my goodbye letter to the winter. (7/n)

It’s balanced and spins really well! It’s my first support spindle with a metal tip so it took a second to get used to that feel. It’s a custom order from TexasJeans on Etsy if you’re interested in getting one
Thank you! I love the cute lil hat and buttons

Ahhhh that’s going to be a dreamy combo!
It’s got 20g on it now, and feels full to me, so I’m moving onto the next spindle.

Forgot to take pics of a couple battlings but next up is this one!
Thank you! It’s a 12-color gradient set and I’m hoping to ply them into one big giant skein
Your cat is so hip 🥹
Your cat and the drying fleece match! 🤎🤍🩶
Oooo yes, engaging is a perfect word to describe what spinning this batt was like! I think knitting with this yarn will be as engaging and fun and really looking forward to it
Weeeeeeeeeee
