#art yarn

[ezekiellsplayground]

Finished crochet snails! Beetlejuice snail is heading for the soft toy category in the 2025 Royal, because I think it’ll look hilarious sitting amongst a bunch of crochet teddies/dolls. Mini skull snail is made using a mix of leftover shawl yarns and last years xmas advent yarns.

Art yarn bag this morning. Needed something that's not a sock heel to work on today. No idea how it'll turn out or what shape I want, so it may be something totally different next time I have pictures...im kinda thinking it could make a good spinning bag if I make it long but not wide and maybe felt it ?

Iirc it's mostly wool, but the other ply is cotton yarn, so idk how that would felt. We'll see !

Still making it gay

Rainbow is merino and white is 50/50 silk and merino for the shine 💫

DUSKMAVEN - 480 yards Sport Weight Art Yarn

I need to get better photos but the light has been bad after work and I’ve been putting off updating my shop too long, but black always washes out

SO THIS IS ONE OF MY CRITICAL ROLE YARNS

It’s made up of 3 different skeins that have slightly different variegation because my ideal is that I never get bored with colors during spinning and neither does a patron while knitting. They’re titled Raven’s Crest (the temple where Vax goes into the blood pool, which this is themed from), Communion Pool (that’s the most heavily red one, but transitions on either end of the skein to dark so it will join nicely), and Deathwalker’s Ward (for maximum angst you know I had to do it).

Anyway, felt timely with Downfall to at least show this off.

If you’d like to snatch this from the maw of Etsy before I get the truly sexy pictures up I’ve decided to offer a Tumblrina discount: SHOELACES for 20% reduced

Also shipping is free!*

I have one other yarn done I'll post about soon, but future ideas are similarly place-but-key-event+person themed.

More flame yarn!!!! Both in the ply and the colors!!! I saw this color batt at the fiber fest and truly could not resist my fire fire aesthetic! This one doesn’t have the beehives of the other but I like it a lot still, the silk adds that shine

Just realizing it looks really stretched out on the bobbin . In the skein, it’s much pretty and more relaxed.

😍😍😍

GOD this came out good!! NO idea what to turn it into!!

i have been thinking about learning to weave tho, so i could get an art yarn stash going now... i mean, i already spin & crochet; why stop there? i could see a woven piece preserving the cool little details of this yarn better than in crochet, since it's a more 2D medium.

shop the yarn in my store ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ♥

Through this weekend only, alllll handspun yarn in my shop is 20% off! Proceeds from the sale are going to moving expenses and helping me pay rent while I look for employment. :3

This is the first yarn I've spun on Flopsy that I'm 100% pleased with. The twist is right, blending was fun, and the end product is both relatively even and interesting, without the colors being too muddled.

Merino and only 74 grams, but I'm getting a larger bobbin soon so I can make bigger skeins! I'm eager to know what this looks like knitted, but I'm thinking about selling and trying to build up a stash for that purpose.

Using an Ashford E-Spinner to transform scrap wool & fiber into some super fun yarn!

[fibre-foxx]

Tried spinning some funky art yarn for the joy of spinning it. I suppose that's why they call it art yarn. Gold is silk, blend is all sorts of wools.

Completed 3ply skein sets. These are all destined to be garments of some description.

In order, we have Minus Morgul (Fossil Fibers), Red Panda (Felting Ewe), & Fantasy Forest (Fossil Fibers dyes Ents at War, Redwoods, & Hiccup).

I don't know who needs to hear this, but

YOU DO NOT NEED TO START A NEW HOBBY!

STEP AWAY FROM THE TEXTILES!

YOU DON'T NEED MORE YARN!

THAT FABRIC IS NOT CALLING TO YOU! LEAVE IT ALONE!

Bubbly barbie pink spiral flame yarn !!!! I think this one came out so fun!!!! I used some yarn that you may recognize from my dye day post, that pink silk with variance in tone.

[things-from-strings]

finished spinning that xmas fiber. i'm not used to this recycled silk stuff, so it was a bit of an adjustment from "smooth & even" type wool. fun tho! so textured & full of color! really looking forward to seeing it done
