This afternoon I grabbed a few moments for some Pitch Black stitches while waiting on a friend who I drove to a medical procedure. I'm making a simple burglar toque with a folded brim and very much enjoying the mindless rhythm of 1x1 ribbing. This colour is my darkest and most solid black, dyed in a cold, acidless bath to ensure maximal, almost-solid dye uptake. The bath gets warmed slowly over time, and as the dye particles adhere to the wool, the water clears, and then the citric acid joins the party to set the colour before it all goes for a final steam bath. Pitch Black is mostly solid with very little contrast and just a minor shift in the saturation or tone here and there. The yarn works up as a solid black with just enough transition in tone to tell the story of its hand dyed origin. Pitch Black is currently available in sport weight (pictured here) as well as fingering, click our link in bio to see the skeins! #subcultureyarn #handdyedyarn #handpaintedyarn #nevernotknitting

Meet Disco Light Show, a saturated rainbow nestled in mirror ball grey, inspired by rainbow stage lights and reflective mirrored disco balls. This colour story is a celebration of colour and wild partying energy of more youthful days. Disco Light Show feature flowing colour transitions between layers of randomly arranged vibrant colours mingling with each other and the occasional pool of cool grey in a bright yet a subtle colourway that will not generally flash or pool across most projects. Disco Light Show is currently listed on worsted weight superwash merino and can also be painted on any yarn base you like!

Happy Saturday friends! I don't know about you but I sure love a thrift hop on a lovely, pleasant Saturday. Speaking of loveliness and thrifting, meet Antiquity, a colour story reminiscent of the worn, weathered pages of well-read vintage books and the inside pockets of vinyl record sleeves. Antiquity is a neutral, pale, silvery and sandy cream-white, peppered with undertones of weathered driftwood and bone. The colour flows in delicate layers like a water colour painting, working up with minimal contrast and preserving stitch definition and stripes. Antiquity was designed to pair beautifully with virtually anything, especially earth tones and is currently listed in superwash merino 4 ply DK and worsted weight.

I haven't been knitting much these days, the creative spark has been eluding me for a while and I just haven't felt the groove. Thankfully new colour stories got me a little motivated to get back to stitching and I'm pretty pleased about it. Disco Light Show is looking lovely in 1x1 ribbing is it not? It's like a more saturated version of Black Pearl but with less ghostly fog and more intense pops of rainbow stage lights. This is the start of a simple toque with a doubled brim and I'm feeling pretty pleased with how it's coming together! Hope your Monday is lovely and offers some time for some happy stitching too! #subcultureyarn #nevernotknitting #bcknittersofig #handdyedyarn #handpaintedyarn

Happy Friday friends! Meet Disco Light Show, a brand new colour story inspired by rainbow stage lights and reflective mirrored disco balls. This colour story is a celebration of colour and wild partying energy of more youthful days. Disco Light Show is a vibrant rainbow nestled in a smooth stainless steel grey. The effect is a subtle, almost holographic flowing colour transition between layers of vibrant colours mingling with each other and the occasional pool of cool grey in a bright yet a subtle colourway that will not generally flash or pool across most projects. Currently listed in our superwash merino sport yarn, which is a springy, shiny 3 ply yarn that works beautifully in any projects calling for sport or DK as it has so much loft!
