Welp, I kind of forgot about this app for a minute πŸ™ˆ

But I did want to share the results from our 1st PLY Quarterly Fiber Club.

This quarter was the Hue Issue, and I spun up our new Shaniko Confetti base. 400yds, 2 Ply fingering weight.

Next installment opens tomorrow.

Remeber that avocado dye from some time back?

I’m so tickled with how these scrunchies turned out. They will be premiering at Ritual Dyes, Sunday March 9th for the last day of the Rose City Yarn Crawl.

100% Botanically dyed 6A Mulberry silk.

If there are any left over, I’ll have them available for the ICT Yarn Crawl 3/15-3/16.

I did a thing that I’m proud of. I have a featured article in the most recent issue of @plymagazine.bsky.social πŸ₯²

I seek whether or not it’s possible to dye and spin roving to match a handdyed skein of yarn.

Check out the Hue issue, available now!

How do you keep your hands from cramping? Part of why I like magic loop is I have more needle to hold on to.

What’s your favorite method for small circumference knitting? I prefer magic loop, but need to give 9” circs another go.

Well that’s poo poo. Hopefully nothing too crazy needs fixed.

Each quarter, I’ll create a listing with the new mood board so people can get a sense of the color scheme for that quarter.

The mood board changes with each issue release, and so will the club color. This is the mood board for the first issue of 2025 (and therefore the first club color). Next quarter will be completely different. 😌

You’ll have to sign up each quarter. I thought this would just be the easiest all around.

Our first EVER fiber club!

I thought it would be fun to dye fiber based off PLY Magazine’s mood board & receive the fiber the same time as your magazine.
