Also, many thanks to those who have made orders and supported me even while I've been less publicly visible. You may not have even realized it, but I appreciate the continued support.
It feels almost like starting over, especially since I left Instagram. There may be some changes, and likely some failures, but I'm having ideas, making plans, and am hoping for the best for the future π
I've been on a bit of a personal hiatus for most of the last year--both on social media and in the dye studio--but now I'm gearing up to get back into things. π§Ά #indiedyer #smallbusiness #fibercraft
Prepping a few orders to ship tomorrow π§Ά

I guess I should say that the two bumps are Falkland + Corriedale Blend and Targhee Top. The dyed fibers are Corriedale, which I blend using the drum carder.
Two large bumps of bare undyed wool combed top on a stainless steel work table. Stacked atop them are three smaller bags with dyed wool top: light brown, steel grey, and dark green.
Do you think I ordered enough wool?
The two big bumps each weigh about 30lbs (13.6kg) π

A table full of yarn in twisted hanks laying side by side. They are presented in 12 sets of 4 of each color, starting with green nearest the camera and progressing through brown, orange, red, and purple. At the very back, placed on a slightly higher level, are 4 various shades of blue.
What a nice rainbow of yarn I got to dye! Which color would you choose for your next knit?

Three rectangular pans next to each other. Yarn is soaking in colored dye water. A bright red being the closest, then a light blue in the middle, with a darker blue at the far end of the image.
Dyeing some solid colorways today. These are only 3 of 12 in the queue.

A close-up of fabric with variegated colors of blue, yellow, white, and green in a mostly plain weave. The warp yarn yet to be woven onto extends into the distance of the image.
Currently on the loom. This yarn was a practice while tweaking a colorway recipe, so it's one of a kind. I'm using the full width of my 24 inch rigid heddle loom and hope to get enough fabric to make something nice when it's all done.
