Hallelujah is a favorite colorway inspired by the Jeff Buckley recording of this song. Hallelujah is a lovely neutral speckled colorway. You may now pre-order it on a variety of bases! www.kimdyesyarn.com/weeklyshopup...

Maybe you feel like stitching something up that reminds you of pretty succulents. I have pre-orders open on the site for Succulent, which is a pretty and elegant colorway inspired by gorgeous plants. www.kimdyesyarn.com/weeklyshopup...

This will slightly alter the appearance of the final shawl but will get you back to the correct stitch count without ripping back.

So sorry for this mistake. I am very embarrassed that this slipped by me.

Thank you, James, for notifying me of the problem.

For those that have already started knitting Sleeping Satellite that do not wish to start over, you can work rows 1 and 2 of the Crater section before starting the first full repeat of the Crater section.

The addition to this section is:

Row 12: K3, yo, k1, [sl1yo, brk] 5 times, sl1yo, k1, yo, k3. (21 sts)
Row 13: K3, yo, k1, [sl1yo, brk] 6 times, sl1yo, k1, yo, k3. (23 sts)

The final stitch counts for all of the sections have been updated.

There is an error of the setup section of Sleeping Satellite that won't be noticeable until you reach the first iteration of row 5 of the Crater section. The setup section is missing two rows.

Unfortunately, I have another update to correct an error in the pattern.

A knitted hood made from soft dark periwinkle yarn in garter stitch is laying folded in half on a white background. The hood has tapered elongated sides which end in icord ties. It is meant to be worn with the tapered ends wrapped around the neck like a scarf.

A closeup of the dark periwinkle knitted garter stitch hood. It shows the weathered natured of the yarn due to the natural brown color of the alpaca.

The weather this weekend was the perfect time to try out My Jose Hood! I am happy to report that it kept me toasty warm as I shoveled the drive and sidewalk yesterday. With the cold temps this week, it will get lots of wear. Yarn and pattern in comments. ICE is unsafe, friends. Be vigilant. XO Kim

Close up of a gray brioche lace shawl with multi-colored speckles. A burgundy shawl in the same stitch is in the background.

Back in March of last year, @lolabeanyarnco.com messaged me, asking if I could "work my magic" with her new colorway, Moonshine? I said yes, because I am not a fool, at least not in this case. The results of that message, Sleeping Satellite, will be released on Tuesday. Stay tuned.

A charcoal black Adella Q Maker’s Sling bag with an adjustable crossbody strap rests on the ledge of a brightly painted upright piano. The textured canvas bag features front pockets with metal snaps and grommet details. The piano artwork shows a colorful coastal scene with blue sky, clouds, water, trees, and buildings, creating a vivid contrast to the bag’s dark, muted tones.

Black and gray are the quiet foundation of every palette. Black anchors color with depth and strength, while gray allows colors to speak without shouting. It tempers intensity, adds nuance, and reminds us that balance is often more powerful than saturation. 🧵

Yarn in colors red, green, blue, and purple wrapped around a PVC niddy noddy.

Finally using my homemade niddy noddy to get the kinks out of a sock blank. Using the pvc pipe means that I can get it wet without concern.

Hi! So, I’ve been working on the final wholesale order of the year. It’s for a new LYS! More details to come on that. I have also gone through the Clearance section of the site and cleaned it up so that it’s easier to see what is left there. And, I’d like to remind you of gift cards! Links below. 🧶🧶

In the time since I posted this, the person would bid, then retract on a number of items, including those that they retracted from before.

Round 2 of destash on eBay ends tonight. 🧶 #destash
