A few months back, Jill from Jill Tamminen was teaching a class at my family’s mill, Rapidan Fiber Mill

And this color just kept drawing her eye


So, I sent her some!

She immediately cast it on and created an amazing pattern that she’s calling the Keystone Shawl.

It’s coming out Friday, and if you want a sneak peek, you should see the Live we did last Friday.

And if you want to get the yarn ahead of time, you’ll want 3 skeins of DK weight Snow in the Pines.

You can get the skeins through the link in my bio or go to my website and search!

Introducing “Enchanted Forest”!

If you’ve ever read a fairy tale, you’ll notice the characters often find themselves in a forest.

A place that’s hiding something from you, ready to ensnare you in its secrets.

You always feel that home is just a little further in.

That you’ll remember the way back
but, you won’t


Available now! Go check it out!

It was a long journey to get here.

Late nights, missing out on things, lots of dyeing, and trying out a lot of new things.

All for one weekend


And it was completely worth it!

I had such a blast hanging out and talking with y’all, sharing the stories behind the yarn and business.

Thank you so much for joining and supporting all the wonderful vendors!

Definitely going to be there next year!

Woot!

Shenandoah Valley Fiber Festival is this weekend!!!!

I’ve been getting all kinds of stuff prepped and ready for this weekend.

The biggest are these custom pegboards from Nathan

They are absolutely amazing!

I was worried about having enough room for the skeins, but I think there’s plenty!

I’m still trying to figure the layout for the boards, we’ll see how it turns out!

Are you coming to SVFF???

Hi!

My name is Alan.

By day I work in software.

But, I love to hand dye yarn inspired by books!

Sound interesting?

Follow along!

A little over a year ago, I had an idea that just wouldn’t leave my head...

What if I took a book and turned the themes or characters into a yarn color.

But, instead of showing the color, I released a clue about the book and asked people to buy the yarn without seeing it?

Would people buy the yarn?

I was really nervous


But people loved the idea!

And jumped on board and immediately started buying these Blind Dates with Yarn!

They loved it.

And it is so humbling hearing these wonderful reviews from y’all.

I had no idea my Blind Dates with Yarn would be so popular.

And seeing all the wonderful projects y’all make with them is so inspiring!

If you’re curious to learn more about Blind Date with Yarn, comment Date below and I’ll send you a link to this month’s Blind Date.

A year ago, I was thinking about ways to make it more fun to get yarn.

And Blind Date with a Book popped into my head, because everything I do is connected to books.

So, why not read a book, come up with a color set and stitch marker based on the book, then release a clue about the book and let people choose to purchase the yarn set without seeing the colors?????

I mean, who would buy that???

Turns out, a lot of people love it!

And it’s so much fun to hear everyone’s guesses.

If you’re curious about this months clue, head on over to my site and see the latest!
