I’m thrilled to be participating in Countess Ablaze’s  #titsoutcollective movement!  Over 250 indie yarn dyers and makers from around the world (most are quite small businesses and many are working out of their homes) are taking this opportunity to use their hard work and hearts to replicate the Countess’ colorway “If I want Exposure, I’ll Get My Tits Out” and then donate a minimum of about $4 from the price of each skein or item they sell to charities they care about.  To read more about the collective, please see the Countess’ blog post here.

I’m choosing to donate $5 USD per skein sold of my Speckled Finch Studios version of the colorway “If I Want Exposure, I’ll Get My Tits Out (And Shake Things Up)” to a local organization, W.O.M.A.N. Inc., that supports women who have been victims of domestic violence. I am quite proud and pleased to be participating and think the response from the indie-dyer and maker community and from those planning to purchase (and therefore also give to charity) has been truly beautiful.  My colorway will become available for purchase in my shop starting at 5:00am PST on July 1st. 💗

St. Patrick’s Day is coming!! 🍀
Get your green game on - Envy is available in the shop now on Hearty Sock, Cloud MCN, and Bouncy DK.

Introducing the Kismet Fade Set—available for preorder starting Saturday, Feb 17 at 12:00 PST. Each set includes colorways Bliss, Champagne Wishes, Neither Here Nor There, Sweethearts, Grace’s Daydreams and Blueberry Blast.

I was playing with yarn skeins (as I often do) and discovered that some of my colorways fade nicely together! 

Colorways pictured are (from left to right): Bliss, Champagne Wishes, Neither Here Nor There, Sweethearts, Grace’s Daydreams, and Blueberry Blast. All are currently available in the shop. 

Three new colorways will be introduced at Speckled Finch Studios' next update on Thursday, January 18th at 5:30 pm PST. 

Just in time for Valentine's Day - introducing Bliss and Sweethearts! And for those of you who may lean more "anti-valentine" - The Love Is Dead will be joining the shop for the update as well.  Other colorways will also be available:
