Harvest fruit crumble


Thinking of a colourway that would match the 'Delicious Desserts' theme of the Out of this World Congo, I stumbled upon a test package of Muesli. The colours were perfect! Used colours: a bit of light green, a bit more burgundy and pumpkin orange and the rest in aztec gold, brown and chestnut. Delicious!!

Chocolate-Mocha with berries


Yummie! Kettle dyed on 3-PLY BFL in shades of pink, burgundy and brown.

And here the same colourway on 75% BFL wool/ 25% nylon sock yarn.

Purple Valley


In fact this is dyeing purple in gradients. A combination of space and kettle dyeing on 3-PLY BFL.

Cottage Rose


One of my favorites! Actually I was inspired by some Laurie Ashley fabric. Green leafs and light pink roses on a natural cotton. I added some darker pink as well, because it would make the yarn more vibrant. Space dyed on 3-PLY BFL.

Flip Flop



I was inspired for the colors by a dress Jessica made for our collab of Out of this World. This is BFL 3-PLY, hand painted in turkoois, pumpkin orange, hot fuchsia and violet.

The matching bag was found in a bargain shop and this is how the yarn will go to the customer.
