I once used an accordion hanger as a swift … Ridiculous ? Yes , but it did work .
I actually posted a video of it on my channel 😁
That blanket would be the best blanket ever 😍
I absolutely love the garnet yarn 😮 garnet is my birthstone. Such nice happy mail. I think a gemstone blanket would be fascinating 😊. I love shawls 🤪 I cant stop thinking about making them 😂. I really love the yellow and the grey
I'm tempted to make a blanket too. I got two skeins. So I could either hold it double and change the second skein color halfway through the skein to have a more gradual color change. Or I could just use one of each color on the blanket and have a second skein for other projects.
Lovely yarn as always. I'm glad you like the rack. I bought it for all selfish reasons. It means I get the see all the beautiful yarn! I hope you are feeling better.
Beautiful yarns. Love that red. The yellow is nice too.
how about a cute lil vest for bingo – blanket would be hard to clean – I personally would make something smaller – sorrry if I am to forward with advice – don't feel you have to take it – have a good day thanks for sharing
Good morning 😊 Yellow is not a color I would pick for me either, a Bee??? Hmm. . . Anyway they are beautiful ❤
Great mailday. Hope you have a wonderful fabulous day
I had been meaning to ask you how you set up your Amazon wish list. Does the item come off the list once someone has purchased it? Do you get notification that someone has purchased 'xyz' from your wish list?
I've been trying to figure out what to do with my gemstone yarn too. I got in late so I told her if she doesn't have any more dk, that fingering would be fine. So when I get mine and see what weight I get, I'll better know what I might do… Maybe. 😂 I love the idea of the blanket, which was my first intention. But the thought of hand washing and laying flat a blanket seems unrealistic. Not that it can't be done but where would I personally have the space. I'm thinking I'm going to make a wrap, shawl, or cardigan using just a few rows and make hats with the left overs. Possibly baby hats if I don't have much yardage left, as I have a grandbaby that will be seven months old on the 4th. 🎉
I'd use the hand dyed for a blanket
Wow love the garnet yarn, so pretty😊
What a thoughtful gift of the rack. That is awesome yarn from Thryss and Dee. Enjoy.
I’m going to make a blanket for me with hand painted , I will know what is in it and how to look after. So why not go for it as a present to yourself x
I like the birthstone blanket idea. It will be decadent, but it will be so soft and luxurious when watching TV as a family! I also always think shawls and cowls, etc. for these yarns because of the yardage. How about pairing the Ball Drop with a yellow or black or grey yarn to make a sweater for Bingo? Let the hand dyed shine and support with a base color? Trying to expand but it doesn't seem easy! 😅Baby steps!
That rack is a great idea. I was thinking that you could make Bingo a really cute vest from that beautiful yellow/gray yarn from Thryss. Or you could add in some more greys to get enough to make her a sweater. I agree the yarns in a set don't need to be all in one project. Think about Fairisle ! Or Nordic using cream with that garnet….
Such beautiful yarn!!
With the birthstone yarns you could do a color blocked rectangular wrap with the colors going the long way. Any scraps you could use for a hat/scarf/cowl etc. depending on leftover length.
I actually made a blanket with handy yarn from leather company. They had a Gilmore girls themed yarn, and I made it for my granddaughter. It was pretty pricey, but I think she’ll have it forever.
Oh man, I here you about the email thing…. I've been meaning to email you since before christmas and still haven't gotten around to it, maybe today 😂. Lovely happy mail.
Lovely, lovely happy mail!
I got the birthstone yarn and am thinking a blanket. Now i just need to decide on a stitch. (or stitches i guess). Squares? c2c? stitch sampler? something else? the possibilities are endless. lol
Go for decadence!!!!!! Doooooo iiiiiiiiit.
That was so sweet of Diamond getting you the rack for your yarn….awesome idea too!
Omgosh the Garnet yarn is absolutely stunning!🙌🧶 when you said maybe a blanket with it…I thought..Wowza that will be amazingly beautiful but drying a blanket lying flat would be difficult…not impossible just difficult I think.
Maybe you could make a wide rectangle wrap using some of each month’s yarn and have a Birthstone Wrap. I’m really not sure hon…so sorry! But it is gorgeous.
The zebra yellow & gray yarn is pretty too. I don’t buy much yellow yarns either but what about a vest & hat for Bingo.
Glad you got some Happy Mail and shared it with us. Have a great day!
😊🧶🦋💜
I've been hoarding all my special yarn cause I can only knit so fast. I love hats so they normally come out as hats.
Nice happy mail and yarn love the red it's so beautiful.
Hi Erin! I think the Ball drop yarn would make a pretty hooded scarf, or small poncho for Bingo. Thryss and Dee are very talented. Thank you for sharing!
Wow gorgeous yarn, nice very nice happy mail.
Scarf and hat
Wow, the yarn is very pretty! I love Happy Mail! Have a great week!
Gorgeous yarns. ❤
I sent you something in your fb group I think you will LOVE.
I always love seeing all the exciting yarns, I can see an amigurumi bee in the yarn, I also see a dinosaur with a yellow underbelly with the Black striping/scaling appearance in it too. Very cool looking 💖
Beautiful 🤩
I'm using all the mini hand dyed skeins I've accumulated in advents and fiber festivals to make myself a blanket using a pattern I found called minis in a blanket by Beata jezek of hedgehog fibers. The pattern is for a baby blanket but I'm making it bigger. The way the yarns are doubled and mixed is beautiful. I'm sure to make it the size I want I'll end up putting a few full size skeins in too. But I don't wear shawls or cowls and I want to enjoy the beautiful yarn I love!
Hey Erin! I would buy more of the zebra wool and make a sweater for Bingo! TFS Hugs!
Hi Erin, a birthstone blanket sound fabulous and why not do a bumble bee 🐝 that’s the beauty of yarn you can make whatever you want too xx
My plan is to buy the birthstone yarn for a shawl based on my children’s birthstone and mine. And I’m sure the colors will coordinate beautifully
