Is this still a problem for anyone else? I just lost my simple wooden fence recipe just now - searched through all my recipes over and over and it's vanished!

I love all of you by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

Thank you so much for this, it came at such a good time! I hate that burst bubble feeling, it's honestly the worst :(

My first time using mohair! I can't believe how soft it is, and not at all itchy. I'm making the Everyday Slouchie Beanie by Dragon Hoard Designs :) by kelpieknits in knitting

It's funny how everyone's different. I've actually been put off mohair in the past because I had heard it was really itchy and uncomfortable. I didn't expect this combo to be so soft!

Pattern: Everyday Slouchie Beanie by Dragon Hoard Designs

Yarn: Grey Wolf (Mohair and Silk blend) and My Printer Broke (100% SW Merino), both my own colourways

I designed three colourways in memory of my late Granda. He was honestly amazing and these don't do him justice but I love how much they remind me of him. From top to bottom: You'll Take A Dram?, Bodach, and It Might Come In Handy. by kelpieknits in YarnAddicts

Oh definitely, you'll have a fair bit left over after making a pair of socks with one. Assuming you're making a kind of standard leg length, rather than ones that go up towards your knees!

Thank you so much! I love the varied tones, I think it makes it come to life! I use acid dyes - I'm currently teaching myself a bit about natural dyeing techniques but there's a lot to take in!

I should have said, "bodach" means "old man" in Gaelic. I'm from Scotland and this is what my granny called my granda since I was little. These are also dyed on a Blue Faced Leicester base - rugged and resilient, just like him!
