KT and the Squid

Looking straight on Cow always looks like she's judging you with her glare but move to the side and she's actually smiling.

And pink suits. Don't forget about the pink suits.

The yarn.

What are we knitting (or crocheting) today? I'm impatiently waiting for yarn to dry so I can cast on a pair of DK weight socks.

The dog that was returned twice for being too much.

The sun is shining! Got some yarn dyed, played with the puppy outside now I'm going to crochet something before I start spiraling in my doomscroll.

Dyed up a bunch of Tree Hugger! #handdyedyarn

Lola, I don't want to alarm you but maybe don't turn around. 😂

Had to rescue Cow from the predicament she got herself in. This is a ledge to nowhere (I personally don't understand the point of the thing) over the stairs. Might just take off all the stuff collecting dust and give her a blanket.

Went out last night so kids put Ozzie to bed. They sent me this. They gave her a stuffie and a blankie 😂

This floof 😍

6:30 am. Mom, look what I found.

I have yarn I need to dye but the garage is so cold the water I left out there yesterday is frozen solid. 🥶

DNA results are in!
49% Australian Cattle
43% Siberian Husky
6% Alaskan Malamute
1% GSD (surprisingly so low)
1% Collie

She's not even 5 months old so I think that Malamute is to blame for her size. Husky explains a lot. She gets lippy at breakfast time and she loves the snow.

Do you ever have a simple project that gives you issue after issue?
I have an order for a colorway I've done a million times without a problem. First, I dyed the wrong base. Dyed the right one. Then I caught a small imperfection I just couldn't send out. Third time's a charm! Right!?

Her best ASPCA commercial pose. Cue the sad music.
She keeps asking to go out. Shes perfectly happy in the snow. Makes me think she's got some husky in her.

Someone is jealous but I'm not sure which one.

My glasses too! Won't go that short though 😅

That sudden urge to chop off all your hair because everything is falling apart and it gets caught in your seatbelt trying to get out of the car.

Puppy teef! Yeah, I don't know what this was. She was watching us eat dinner. 😅

Thrifted sweaters yarn update. Getting the seams out took the longest. Once I figured it out it went pretty quick though. Now to unravel each panel.

Puppy's first snow. I think she likes it.

Yes! I already started. I'm thinking a few different colors. The plan is to make skeins and dye like I normally do. It has a small percentage of acrylic so it will be a bit muted but should still work.

Have you ever used yarn from thrifted sweaters? I found these this weekend. I'm planning on dyeing the white one. The green one is alpaca and the pink one has some silk in it. Wish me luck!

Things I'm getting on here. People who draw/paint and cats.
Cool, but I'd love to see more fiber artists! Please and thank you. 🧶

My new car buddy and her reindeer.

Escaped the news for a bit and dyed up some more Sally sock sets! These will be in the shop shortly. I also need to make another sock. I never started the second one 🫣

Hey! Thought I'd go ahead and make my first post on here. 😅 My name is Katy! I'm a socially awkward yarn dyer, crocheter and knitter.
If you like yarn, crafts, cats and dogs we should be friends. 🧶🧵🐈🐕
