Dock leaves :: such a wonderful dye plant to work

Dock leaves :: such a wonderful dye plant to work with. Harvested and soaked on the same dye they produce the most wonderful warm mustard yellow :: we are always popular with local crofters on dock dye days as their weeds are our treasures 🌱💛

Bricks and mortar shop update :: unfortunately due

Bricks and mortar shop update :: unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances we are having to close our wee bricks and mortar shop in Skye for about 8 weeks… so sorry to disappoint anyone hoping to visit in the next month or two. All our yarns will be going online over the next week so the online shop will be bursting which will hopefully make up for it!
Thank you so much and apologies again xxx

Rinsing the blues. Our ‘sogh’ fingering alpaca

Rinsing the blues. Our ‘sogh’ fingering alpaca drinks up natural dyes in such a beautiful way. This gunmetal blue yarn is going to be packed up into kits for @donnasmithdesigns #interislandshawl .. a perfect light summery knit.

Ahhh what a day! It’s not often good weather falls in line with bank holidays but today it did! The island is buzzing with happy holiday makers which is so good to see. We went for a family walk to brothers point.. the bay below the wool shop and it was all about the blues! The water is so incredibly clear and the sky an amazing gradient of blue. Hope you are all enjoying your Sunday wherever you are and getting time to soak in the blues 💙
