…and the scarf is finished! The weft was dyed and spun by me. I love how the color shifts throughout this scarf. It has been added to my Wool-aid pile waiting for my next shipment. #woolaid #handdyed #handspun #weaving #rigidheddleloom 🧶
My bright and funky hand-dyed handspun yarn is becoming a woven scarf! 🧶 #weaving #handspun #rigidheddleloom #woolaid
Finished scarf with reclaimed merino as warp. I love the drape that using multiple strands of lace weight creates. #weaving #rigidheddleloom #reclaimedyarn #woolaid

Pattern: Rhode Trip Hat by Kara McKinley
Yarn: Cloudborn Fibers superwash merino worsted twist in Plum heather KP Hawthorne Fingering in Lents
February “surprise skein” challenge selection was a purple Cloudborn superwash. I paired it with a coordinating fingering from stash for this cabled hat. Turned out a bit smaller than planned, but that is one benefit of knitting to donate - it will fit someone! #knitting #woolaid
Baby sweater and vest Sweater pattern: Flax by tincanknits (without garter panel on sleeves) Vest pattern: Mini thermal vest by Claire Russell Yarn: Patons Classic Wool in Old Rose & Amaranth
Two pieces of an in progress baby set for Wool-Aid. Just need to finish the hat, make some mitts, and wash the little pieces and the set will be ready to go. The little stripey sweater turned out adorable. #knitting #woolaid
Most of the items I share on this page will be donated to Wool-Aid, so thought id share a bit about the group. Wool-Aid is a community of crafters who create warm wool garments for children who live in the coldest climates and have the least access to resources. #woolaid
Pattern: Orchard Harvest Beanie by Benjamin Matthews Yarn: KP WOTA superwash in mineral heather
Striped hat Yarn: KP WOTA superwash in mineral heather and columbine (used up the last of both colors!)
2 hats made as part of a Wool-Aid Ravelry challenge. I chose 12 skeins or group of skeins that have been in stash for too long and packaged them in bags labeled 1-12. Draw a number monthly and make something to donate. This was January. (Plus purple from the scrap bin to use it a up) #knit #woolaid
Baby blanket hanging over the back of a couch in front of a window with a snowy winter view
Front of baby blanket made using mostly yarn left over from previous projects. I used the mosaic moss stitch by Beba Blanket to make the squares and joined them using the PLT method.
The back of the blanket looks like solid striped squares.
Mosaic moss stitch baby blanket is finished and blocked! This one will be sent to a fellow Wool-Aid crafter who will make the coordinating sweater, vest, hat, mitts, and socks to complete the baby set. #crochet #mosaiccrochet #woolaid
First post! Sharing a blanket that I made with crochet hexagons last year since my most recent FO is soaking today getting ready for blocking. As with most of my projects, this one will going to Wool-Aid. #crochet #woolaid
Big thanks to Wool Aid for donating warm wool products for people in Ukraine hfu.org #hfu #hopeforukraine #woolaid
Only this morning a convoy of aid set off across the border with vital wool essentials. The good people of Liverpool alone have so far donated 30’000 Slazenger tracksuits, 400L of Monster Energy drink, 20’000 pairs of Lonsdale webs and a leaflet for 10% off at Phil Thompsons carpet shop.
