Leftovers, but make it yarn...
Share
January, to me, is the leftovers month of the year. The holiday chaos has settled, my fridge is full of odd food pairings (jar of clotted cream with fancy star-shaped pickles, anyone?), and I’ve rediscovered a small stockpile of canned goods I clearly meant to use… at some point.
And just like my pantry, my yarn shelves were holding onto things I set aside in 2024—mostly yarn bases I collected but never had time to dye. So, I decided to embrace that energy and throw it all into my dye pans!
This month, I’m not chasing a grand new collection or meticulously planning a seasonal colorway drop. Instead, I’ve taken a different approach—working with whatever bases I had on hand, dyeing freely, without overthinking, and seeing where the process led me.
The result? A fresh batch of completely unique yarn, dyed across a mix of bases—each with its own little quirks. I’ve got Sparkly Singles ready to shine, a delicious accumulation of Mighty Merino Fingering, and, of course, our all-time favorite: Squirm Sock. Every colorway was dyed with an open mind, a touch of spontaneity, and that January ‘let’s make something out of what’s already here’ attitude.
Stay Awesome!
