Jen | Wee Chickadee Wool Co.

A gray fabric bucket sits on the floor containing dark red carded fiber. On top of the fiber is a full bobbin of the spun fiber.

A hand holds a braid of wool in front of some house plants. The colors of the wool consist of deep purple, red, brown, and a hint of gold.

New obsession: carding up defective braids to see what color they become 😅

I may end up adding some to the shop if I make too many of them and if anyone is interested ☺️

It feels so good to have an uninterrupted morning to just sit, knit, and drink my coffee. The weather is overcast and cozy, with a soft rain falling. Perfect 😌 and just what I need right now 🧡

I hope you’re all having a lovely day too. Stay cozy and protect your peace my friends ✌🏼

I’ve added a small batch of wool to the shop today!

Since my summer is filling up with adventures, I will be adding fiber to the shop as I dye it for the next few months. I’ll be sure to share on here when new fiber is available. And then in September, I’ll return to having scheduled shop updates 😊

Braided Polwarth wool sits on a wooden backdrop. The wool has been dyed in shades of blue, light purple, brown, and orange. Three pine cones sit next to the wool.

Fiber Friday ⛈️ You know the feeling of a storm brewing? The way the air smells. The electricity in the air. The hair standing up on your arms. I never know if that feeling is excitement or fear. Probably both. But I love it! This colorway is called Summer Storm and is inspired by that feeling 🩶

Thank you, Mel! 🥰

Curiosity got the better of me and I’m spinning up a braid of Ostara 🌸

It’s been a while since I’ve made socks, so next on the wheel is Riptide 🌊 Super curious to see how this spins up!

Colorway: Riptide (ooak)
Fiber: Superwash Merino Wool

Absolutely beautiful 🧡 And peaceful ☺️

I’m not 100% sure what I was thinking when I spun this braid up as one continuous single. A combo spin, perhaps? But it stayed on the bobbin for a year 🫣 So this week, I caked it up and plied it using each of the ends of the cake. I’m pretty happy with it. And I’m happy to have my bobbin back 😉

Thank you Mel! 🥰
