#swatchaweek: blocked @fancytigercrafts Junegrass Batch 2. This really bloomed into a silky fabric. It’s got a bit of fuzz on the surface & is really cohesive & lovely. This is especially cuddly but also has a bit of crunch that makes me think it’ll be quite durable. . . I love that this yarn was such a surprise to me. 😊 . . 🌿 #swatch #swatchproject #wool #yarn #knitlove #fancytigercrafts #junegrass
Making progress on my Wendee socks. I’m almost finished with the gusset on the second one & looking forward to having these for late summer wear! ☀️ . . 🌿 #handmadewardrobe #sockknitting #laceknitting #wendeesocks #andrearangelknits #folepi #sweetgeorgiatoughlovesock
Breezy lace is perfect for summer knitting - wearing my Agave tank over some hand sewn gems, @truebias Ogden cami & @grainlinestudio Maritime shorts. Link to Agave tank in profile 👉 . . 🌿 #summerknits #laceknitting #agavetank #andrearangelknits #handmadewardrobe #sewist #knitlove #imademyclothes
#swatchaweek: I’m knitting with @fancytigercrafts Batch 2 this week & it surprised me! It’s denser & cozier than I was expecting. It’s not super soft, but it does have a very interesting buttery smoothness that I find unusual & intriguing! Reminds me how varied wool can be - it’s so much fun exploring yarns by breed! This one is a blend of Lincoln longwool, Merino/Rambouillet cross, & a tiny bit of dark brown CVM for that heathered look. This is my swatch before blocking. Will show you the blocked swatch soon! . . 🌿 #swatchproject #swatch #yarn #wool #madeintheusa #coloradowool #knitlove #andrearangelknits #fancytigercrafts #junegrass
Victoria folks, are you going to @fibrationsvic this Sunday? I’m going to be there &, along with copies of AlterKnit, I’ll be offering something very special - a sample sale! I’ve been designing for almost ten years & need to let go of some samples. Prices will be pretty incredible - items will be priced at about half the value of the yarn. 😮 This is a stack of just a few of the samples I’ll have. Seriously, I’m bringing so many. Have a particular sample you want? Let me know & if it’s on the list, I’ll set it aside for you. (Just browse my catalog on Ravelry to see what you might be able to get.) . . And if you’ve already got a copy of one of my books that you’d like to get signed, bring it by my table! It’ll be sharing a space with @wovenwares. 😊 Hope to see you there! . . 🌿 #fibrations #samplesale #andrearangelknits #knitlove #handmadewardrobe
I admit I look forward to fall sweater weather, but knitting outside is one thing I love about summer. (Bonus rainbow! 🌈) . . I’m knitting the heel of my second Wendee sock in @sweetgeorgia Tough Love Sock. The heel on Wendee is this wonderful slip stitch garter pattern that’s nice & thick for heel reinforcement, & also pretty!

#swatchaweek: One of the treasures I picked up at @fancytigercrafts last month was their Junegrass Batch 2. This special yarn was produced in a small batch & was entirely grown & milled in Colorado. It’s a DK with a crunchy feel to it & I adore this natural grey colour. I’ll be knitting a swatch with it this week & I can’t wait! 😊💛 . . 🌿 #fancytigercrafts #junegrassbatchtwo #wool #madeintheusa #knitlove #yarn #swatch #swatchproject
