Fellow fiber artists, does anyone know a good dupe for Knit Picks' Wool of the Andes? I got so used to working with it, but with the whole carpet beetles thing, I don't want to buy from KP anymore (and I recommend other people don't either).

(More info: basically, KP has been selling yarn that has carpet beetle eggs in it and lying to customers about it. It seems one of their warehouses has an infestation. This is all technically alleged at this point, but it seems pretty obvious. Lot of people saying they got carpet beetles after buying from KP.)

More about the technique, which was a hype at the end of the 1960s (I still search for the name): https://mastodon.online/@NatureMC/115644399768918679

Need a quick gift? These fingerless mitts stopped us in our tracks. This is Twister, by Tanja Osswald. Our favorite part is the big eyelets leading to the thumb hole.

Tanja is a crochet designer (who also does the occasional knitting pattern). She makes sophisticated, unconventional and with plenty of new techniques. Her patterns come with extensive tutorials on all new aspects. Find more of her work at https://www.facebook.com/OsswaldDesign

My preferences: no acrylic, DK or worsted weight.

Preview: new #yarn from the mill!

#knitting #GulfCoast #Wool

It's been almost 10 years of selling #GulfCoast #fleece, #CombedTop, & #yarn & people keep asking me if I have an online shop. I promised my coach I'd have one made by Halloween! 😮😬 I always say, better late than never! 😅

So, I am building a little shop on my website... 😊 Stay tuned!

I'm also picking up my new (sock) yarn from the mill this weekend, which will be available in my shop in the near future! #knitting

Aaannnddd, you will also find some of my #HandSpun in the shop as well...☺

Folks of the #yarn - I kid you not: "The Game of Wool" is here.
The concept is basically from the sewing bee but with #knitting.

First episode is here, in general it is Sunday on channel 4
