We may have a couple feet of snow outside, but in the studio we’re dreaming of spring! ❄️🌸
Here’s our new spring palette additions to our Luminous Colors collection. I’m not an orange person, but I’m loving these peachy pinks. 😍
Now to finish a project so I can cast on a new one...

We’re smitten with the new Colorburst colors and already planning projects! The colorway names are inspired by unexpected, wonderful things—which is kinda how you feel while knitting with these colors. Ooo! A color section! 😉

Since we’re loving on Colorbursts this week, how about this hat? 😍
This colorway, “All Night Diner in the Middle of Nowhere,” is everyone’s favorite. And, as these things go, it’s the trickiest to dye. Hmm. So maybe it’s everyone but Kiersten’s favorite...but she dyes it so well! 😋 💗 @loftylamb
Posted @withrepost • @websyarn How fun are these colors? WEBS employee Abby knit up this awesome hat and we just love how the colors worked up in this pattern! What's your latest finished project?⁠

🌈 Here’s a quick knit for your holiday making. Its the “Straight Up” hat knit with a Colorburst—“Rainy Day Rainbow”—with fun little blips of color. One skein of March Hare worsted makes this pretty, or it’s counterpart—the Straight Up Cowl. Both patterns are free on Ravelry. 🧶

We love lace patterns and we love gradient sets of skeins and we love when they come together perfectly. (And we love these colors, well...we dyed them. 😉) The shawl is Winter Wonderland by @knittingschooldropout Melissa LaBarre. The pattern and yarn come packaged in a magic gift box with various whimsies included—only available at @websyarn. #Winterwonderlandinthevalley #valleyyarns #holidayyarnbox #handdyedyarn #yarngift #knittergift

Fall is coming to an end in Vermont. Snow is in the forecast! Wood is stacked by the wood stove waiting patiently for me to give in to the fact that winter is on its way. Our limited edition fall colorways are almost gone too--order soon to get them before they come to an end like the season that inspired them. "Bittersweet" captures the essence of autumn--changing leaves, mulled cider, pumpkins, and the bittersweet changing of seasons. 🧡🧶🍁
Yarn: Bittersweet, Blossoms by Wonderland Yarns, sock weight yarn

Sigh. Mondays. Today was extra Monday--and it's already dark! So how about a free pattern? “Accent on the Upbeat”
This one is a simple cowl--perfect for binging on all the shows that have just been released!
There’s something magically simple about purl ridges. By throwing a few ridges here and there you get this wonderfully textured knitting using only the most simple of stitches. Worked in the round, this cowl uses a five color mini skein pack in our sport weight, Mad Hatter. Alternately, use a full size (4 oz) skein of sport for a single color version that’s a bit shorter than the cowl shown.
Sample in “Out of Print.” Available for free on our website. Link in comments. .

Love how this is spinning up! Cactus is one of my favorite fiber colorways. It was released at the same time as Spring Haze, Black Vine, and Happy Phantom. Anyone catch the theme? It’s a tough one. 😉
Happy Friday! Hope you’ve got a weekend of creating ahead of you! 💕#spinningyarn #colormakesmehappy ..
.. Posted @withrepost • @stefanieculley Loving my next spin! The Polwarth is scrumptious and the color is stunning. Frabjous fibers color Cactus. Thanks @wonderland_yarns_and_frabjous!

Experimenting with a new Colorburst colorway in “mistake rib.” It’s an easy and highly textured stitch pattern. When working flat (back and forth) cast on any multiple of 4 sts and then 3 more. You then work a K2, P2 rib, ending each row with K2, P1. Since you are one stitch short of a regular rib, every other column is knit and purl stitches. Easy and mindless—perfect for watching the final season of Poldark. 😉

Ever find yourself in a knitting slump? This happens to me every once in a while and I don’t feel myself without a regular dose of knitting. What I’ve learned is it’s often that I’ve lost interest in my current projects, more than knitting itself. However, I also hate to cast on *another* project. (Probably 15 UFOs at the moment. 😬)
So, I’ve learned to start something small and simple that will fuel me with some instant gratification and fill the need for stitches passing through my fingers. Still, I ask myself, is the joy in knitting or finishing? I enjoyed my UFOs until I didn’t. Is that enough? Is it more about the process or the finished item?
I think for me it’s process. Sticks and strings rhythmically intertwining, creating beautiful stitches. Good enough!

Rhinebeck Sheep and Wool is this weekend! Did you knit something special for it?
@jamiepaintsphotos used one of our salmon to yellow color morph sets to knit her Rhinebeck sweater—a new pattern by @knitosophy. Loving the mesmerizing yoke! 😍

Posted @withrepost • @jamiepaintsphotos I’m over here blocking sweaters and weaving in ends and trying to get my knit wear situated for Rhinebeck in a few days and I am SO happy to have finished this pullover in time. @knitosophy’s Hyphenated is live today on @hi.ravelry. Run over now and favorite that bad boy.
Yarn: @malabrigoyarn African Violet and @wonderland_yarns_and_frabjous color morph set. _____________________________________________________________________

Limited Edition Fall Blossoms colorways are here...but only until Halloween! 🍁 🎃 🍂
If you missed yesterday’s Blossom pattern release, you’ll find a link in our bio. 🧡

Free pattern! In anticipation of the release of limited edition colorways in our Blossoms (color-morphing cakes), here’s a fun color experiment. We took two Blossoms in the same colorway and knit them into stripes, working from opposite ends of the cakes. They met in the middle, but the colors didn’t merge. The infinity scarf has a fun contrast in stripes as a result! Link to the pattern in comments. 💕

Autumn has arrived in Vermont. 🍂🍁 To celebrate we’re playing with fall colors.
The mini skein collection “Burning in Brandy” pairs perfectly with the rich browns of “Rocking-Horse-Fly”. Happy Fall! 🧡

When there’s an extra braid of Narwhal on Silky Cashmerino, what can you do but take the lonely thing home? 😁 It was divine to spin and even at 15% silk, it shines like 50%. Lovely drape, smooth and silky. 😍

I ended up with 240 yards from the 4 oz braid. What does it want to be now? A cowl? Maybe Zuzu’s Petals? —one of my favorites and it’s about time for a new one.
