#fiberuarychallenge Day 1 - - Hello! I’m Shannah. I am the dyer and creative genius behind Honey Girl Farms. I am generally quiet until you get me started on a topic I’m really passionate about. I love to knit, read, and travel. I’m into cars, photography, art of all kinds, baking, cooking, and gardening. One of my goals is to have a retreat center here at the farm with themed small cabins. I enjoy people in small doses and love hearing their stories. Everyone is interesting and has something to share if you’re willing to listen. - - I’m currently wearing an alpaca hat dyed in one of my very early color ways and I wear it all the time and needs to be washed badly. I also have on the flax sweater by @jojilocat which is the first wearable item I’ve ever made in my own size. It’s so soft and snuggly, and I love everything about it. I’ll share my next project in tomorrow’s share. - - Happy Fiberuary!! - - @fiberuarychallenge #fiberuary #fiberuary2020 #fiberuarychallenge2020 #honeygirlfarms #projectbags #notionsbags #enamelpins #yarn #yarndyer #yarnsnob #yarnaddict #handdyedyarn #indiedyed #indiedyedyarn #indiedyer #indieyarn #knit #knitter #knitting #knitaddict #knittingismyyoga #knitstagram #knittinginspiration #knitspiration #crochet #crocheting #crocheter #crochetersofinstagram (at Honey Girl Farms) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8DUHPkpnoG/?igshid=m2f45heb3bl1

#fiberuarychallenge Day 8: Weekend I have been going hard on my spinning WIP for so long that it was time to take a breather, and work towards being ready for my first full-size quilt. Which means... all the cutting. Three guesses as to my favourite colours, hah. All of these fat quarters were handpicked by myself, and I’ve cut them into 4.5” strips to turn into sets of eight half-hexagons, or four hexagons per colour. I can’t wait to see the finished product! #fiberuarychallenge2020 #beginnerquilter #beginnerquilting #quilting https://www.instagram.com/p/B8VD0GCJGKC/?igshid=h56ozdlnsj3u

Day 14 #fiberuarychallenge #fiberuarychallenge2020 Sooooo, I missed a few days of the challenge. But they had to do with love and I’m going to get a little sappy here. I kinda fell in love last weekend, totally and completely out of the blue. I fell in love with Plymouth NH and ALL kinds of synchronistic stuff was appearing, except a yarn shop and then I saw it, a vacant storefront a couple of doors down from the coffee shop (Which carries my favorite brand of tea). The best part is that if you had told me even 2 days earlier that I would pivot 180 degrees and consider moving NORTH I would have said you were crazy. Well except for Canada.

Day 8 of #fiberuarychallenge: Weekend! I normally spend weekends doing maintenance around the apartments 🏠my boyfriend and I manage. I’m trying to put aside more time 🕰 for knitting in my day. I’m pretty bad at making time for myself but this week has been especially long and stressful, so I’m making it a point to spend my entire Sunday relaxing! Im excited to be working on these amazing socks. The pattern is fun and has the perfect amount of cabling for a comfy sock! 🖤🧦🖤It also happens to be the perfect rainy 🌧☔️ day for staying inside knitting. 🧶🖤🧶🖤 #fiberuary #fiberuarychallenge2020 @fiberuarychallenge ❤️❤️❤️ - - McCulloch Sock 🧦Pattern by @knoxmountainknitco 🏔 - - #nocturnalknits #nocturnalknitsox #sockknittersofinstagram #sockknitting #sockknitters #sockknittersofig #weekendknitting #knittingismytherapy #weekendvibes #knittingismyyoga #knitsocks #wip #workinprogress #slowfashion #weekendmood #rainyday #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #instaknit #instaknitters #knitlife #handmade #madebyhand #knitting #mccullochsocks #mcculloch #sundayknitting (at Fullerton, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8XLu2DJXHj/?igshid=mp7omcjmt0cg

I couldn't help but be grateful for having a wonderful weekend in Austin with Sara. We saw art, we ate good food, we had endless chats, visited a yarn store, and of course knitted on the couch together! The Ellsworth Kelly Chapel was really lovely, but it didn't feel like you could just hang out there. Very stark. #spaceinspiration #inspiredspaces #fiberuary #fiberuarychallenge2020 #fiberuarychallenge #travelinspiration #knitweardesigner #color #colorinspiration https://www.instagram.com/p/B8WzU2iJEUu/?igshid=1wosvvnuybwmz

The door of Suerte on 6th Ave East in Austin. I loved the message (and later realized it is outside most restaurants where apparently you cannot open carry). We had taken Sara to the airport and went for a most delicious dinner. We couldn't get in while Sara was there, but the last evening of a weekend is always slower than the beginning and middle. #visitingwithfriends #foodinspiration #nogunsallowed #knitweardesigner #fiberuarychallenge2020 #fiberuary #fiberuarychallenge #colorinspirations #travel #austintexas #suerteaustin https://www.instagram.com/p/B8VPpSpJaI6/?igshid=ltms2odrxbea

#fiberuarychallenge2020 day 1: intro selfie! Hi everyone, I’m Jill, and a certified Menace. I know I’m a day late for #fiberuarychallenge , but I’d figure I’d give a bit of an intro here. I learned to knit when my partner in crime Dennis (who is in fact also a Menace!) got fed up with my need to fidget while watching TV. He said to me, “maybe you should learn to knit or crochet or something, so you can at least be productive when you fidget.” A few hours of browsing knitting and crochet patterns, and my heart was set — and I made my first stitches as early as December of 2016. My hobby grew just a teeny bit after that. Just a little. I’m not obsessed at *all*. Now, I knit, spin, sew, and I’m teaching myself crochet, all the while juggling my job as a cancer researcher, my work as a union activist, and my volunteer role as the Vice President (soon to be President!) of the West Coast Knitters Guild. Let’s see if I can do this #fiberuary thing as well. ;) (at Surrey, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8E8rjFpQ3t/?igshid=1xecz4oiu2ia2
