Urinetown the musical in front of a red curtain
I saw Urinetown the musical in NYC this weekend and it's the exact right time for everyone to see this show.
It's one of my all time favorites, and while it's got a silly title it's fun, and smart, and it made me cry this go around so it hits hard right now
a a skein of variegated yarn that is dyed with pink and red dyes in a broken speckled look, with occasional specks of yellow and blue. With a LeRoo Cotton yarn label
Love Letter: Our February Color of the Month
It's a beautiful pink and red speckled yarn with occasional specks of yellow and blue. Shown on my Cotton/Bamboo DK yarn.
Available on all my cotton and blend bases until February 22nd!

Very good advice to find after a day of doomscrolling
A yarn wall featuring a rainbow of mini skeins with variegated colors on the bottom. Surrounding the peg board are swatches of the variegated skeins in embroidery loops with the LeRoo Cotton logo on top
My favorite thing in my house is all done! My yarn wall with all 53 of the current dyed to order colors I offer.
Not only is it so fun to look at but it lets me so easily share color combos at any time!

a hand holding a skein of 2 ply, cotton yarn. The yarn is a variegated with shades of deep green, purple, bright blue, pink, and gray, with faded sections of soft green and cool silver. In the background is unwound hanks to show the gentle fade and shift of hues
8 skeins of that same variegated laid out together on different bases. While the majority of the skeins look similar, skein 2 - tencel is brighter and shiny, while the last skein - vegan sock - is much more blended and short, with a marling effect of white nylon
The same skein as is being held in photo one is laying on three unwound hanks, showing the pops of pink and purple and blue, as well as the sections of light green. In the corners are 2 swatches showing the higher contrast variegation, but without pooling
Last up to join our 2025 Dyed to Order library is Garden Party! This was my birthday color in 2023, and I'm so happy to be bringing back this fun and bright but somewhat moody colorway!
It is green, with pops of blue, purple and pink, and soft green and silver

One of the few things bringing me joy and excitement at the moment. I cannot wait to read this. Happy release day Blob and @litmagreject.bsky.social
A soft, blue, green and gray subtle variegated 2 ply cotton yarn lays on unhanked skeins showing off the subtle, unrepeating shifts of hues
8 skeins of april showers on various bases. The first, tencel is deeper and shiner than the other seven. Bamboo linen is slightly lighter but still deeper than the rest. Pima is the softest with the most subtle variegation. Cotton bamboo is similar in softness but with higher contrast. Organic cotton and skein 7 - soft pima sport - are both very similar, subtle and soft. Skein 6 is Cotton/Linen and is deeper and moodier than the other skeins due to it's tan starting color. The final skein is Vegan Sock, it's shorter and lower contrast than the other, but darker than pima
The same green, blue and gray soft variegated laid on 3 open hanks showing off the subtle shifts in hues around the skein. In the corners are a crochet and knit swatch showing a mostly random and unpooling colorway that subtly sifts between hues
My nature inspired colorways of 2023 are really getting time to shine this year and I'm so excited about it. April Showers is the next to join the DTO library on my cotton bases and I adore this blue and green and gray subtle variegated

A warm beige yarn layered with a light purple and sagey green, with pops of brighter, moody pink - on a 2 ply cotton yarn
8 Skeins of a warm beige yarn layered with a light purple and sagey green, with pops of brighter, moody pink. The first skein, Tencel, is darker and deeper. The next 6 skeins (bamboo/linen, pima, cotton/bamboo, organic cotton, cotton/linen, and soft pima sport) all look fairly similar. The final skein, vegan sock, is shorter and a bit darker
The same variegated yarn on tencel, laying on open hanks to show off the variegation. In the corners are 2 swatches - one knit and one crochet - showing the subtle color shifts from beige to purple to green and the small pops of pink
Dried Flowers - formerly wilted flowers but the dye style changed enough that I've adjusted the name slightly - has also joyed our dyed to order library on all our cotton bases

Thank you so much! I've dyed them both and I truly hate dyeing wool 😂 I'm glad we all have our niches!
A blue and purple low variegated, 2 ply cotton yarn lays on pile of unhanked yarn to show off the subtle shifts of warm and cool purple and warm and cool blue
8 skeins of blue and purple yarn. The first skein, tencel, is deeper and higher contrast, the next bamboo linen is more muted with dustier tones. The third skein, pima cotton is slightly deeper than the remaining skeins, with a bit of a shine. The 4th, cotton bamboo leans slightly warmer, the 5th, organic cotton is subtle and more low variegation. The 6th, organic cotton/linen has slightly shifted tone similar to bamboo/linen - dustier and moodier. The 7th skein, soft pima sport, is the same as the previous image, and the final skein is vegan sock, shorter than the rest and a bit darker
The purple and blue variegated yarn in cotton bamboo lays on a bed of yarn to show off the different color shifts. In the corner are a knit and crochet swatch. The swatches show the subtle and random shifts between the shades - cool purple into a warm almost pink purple, and cool blues and warmer watery blues, all blending together seamlessly
2 years ago I kept sharing first bloom with a hot pink partner and I think that pink distracted from the star of the show. But now it's back, this slight reformulation is In Bloom - it's a low contrast, almost mermaid variegated of purples and blues available on all my cotton bases!

I don't even do YA or Thrillers but for whatever reason picked this one up and it got me, and I am still fucked up after a week
Quick book reviews!
Grown: oomph, excellently done. Important. Triggers abound but are the point
We Used to Live Here: genuinely scary and wild in different ways than a lot of horror. Very reddit
Roommate Risk: this made me understand why people hate friends to lovers 😂

What a Gem, our January Color of the Month is available until tomorrow evening. I love this color. It's cool pink and blue speckled in chaos to create something beautiful. And it's an absolute joy to dye, which is something i really need

It is so very good. I think if you're a person who hasn't spent time on /r/nosleep its going to be a ride like no other. And if you do spend time there, it's just so that flavor of story
I think it's good but I also feel like I'm having a completely different experience from the average person reading this 😂 I've never felt so chronically online 😂
I used to read a lot of r/nosleep and I think I'm finally experiencing what people who read a lot of fanfic experience when reading published fanfic
#books #booksky 🩸📚 💙📚
Thank you for writing it!
Had to reformulate the color I was swatching last week because it wasn't purple enough, but now it's perfect! Both of these just need knit swatches and photos
