One of my favorite details on my Spark Cardi is the surprise !PINK!, knit steek lining I put in. It’s knit from a little leftover “Check Yes Juliet” Journey Worsted I had from a sweater I made for my daughter. New Homestead Worsted colors will be coming to the website this weekend during my Rhinebeck Update on 10/17 @ 9 AM EST. #primroseyarnco #sparkcardi #sparkcardigan #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #strandedknitting #strandedcolorwork #strandedcolourwork #colorwork #colorworkknitting #knittersofinstagram #knitters #knittersoftheworld #knittersofig #knitspiration #knitting_is_love #knittingastherapy #knittingaddict #knitting_inspiration #knitting_inspire #nevernotknitting #knityourstyle #knitstagram #knit https://www.instagram.com/p/CGWAiHxh_3A/?igshid=13clmegpo83gm

I forgot, just how much I love knitting with my handspun! Casting on this second #sparkcardi in my handspun domestic Corriedale (oatmeal colored yarn | MC) and our “Rusted Root” color in our Homestead Worsted base (CC), has made me realize that I truly need to carve out at least a few hours a week for hand spinning. It’s so gratifying to know that, yes, I really do have the ability to create 1,300+ yards of a 3 ply Worsted for a sweaters quantity! And this combo! 😍 #primroseyarnco #handspunyarn #handspun #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspunstagram #sparkcardigan #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #strandedcolorwork #strandedknitting #stranded #colorchanging #colorshifting #colorshift #knittersofinstagram #knittersofig #knitting_inspiration #knit #knittingaddict #knittingismytherapy #knittinglove #knittinginspiration #knityourstyle #craftastherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CHbXWNXB8fe/?igshid=17xvkswb2dzcr

2 weeks PP this past Monday and I was back to the studio, as promised, with little man as my new studio assistant! Although I’m only “technically” getting about half a days worth of work for in between feedings and baby snuggles, it feels really good to be back at the dye pots. I’m working on the new Fall colors on Adelaide, which hopefully will be ready for a shop update next Friday. In the meantime, I’ve been getting tons of knitting time; and in the past two weeks alone I have: finished a pair of socks for my husband, cast on and finished a baby cardigan for Grayson, cast on a pair of socks for me, and made it to the shawl collar of my #sparkcardi! (Yes, I have a stash, and yes, I knit from it.) 💥Big changes are being made here at Primrose, including the discontinuation of some yarn bases. If you would like to be the first to know about all of the yarnie news including: bases added and discontinued, new colors, and exclusive newsletter subscriber coupon codes, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter (which you can find at the top of our website). 🧶 Yarn shown: Journey Worsted- “Black Truffle” -&- Homestead Worsted- “Mystery Date”, “Long Way Down”, “Siren”, Everything Zen”, “Rusted Root”, “Soda Pop”, “Animal” #primroseyarnco #sparkcardigan #sparkandspicekal #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #strandedcolorwork #strandedknitting #strandedcolourwork #colorwork #colourwork #colorworkknitting #sweaterknitting #sweaterwipsontherug #sweaterweather #sweaterknittersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #knitter #knitting #knittersofig #knittersoftheworld #nevernotknitting #knitting_inspiration #knitspiration https://www.instagram.com/p/CEuEf5VhxR0/?igshid=7wtbypcrfibu

Good morning! 🌞 I’m casting on sleeve 2 of my second #sparkcardi in my favorite chair (aka my knitting chair, next to my side of the bed), drinking coffee out of my favorite mug, wearing my favorite bracelet (made by my daughter). Today is full of favorites and a lot of sunshine! It’s looking like it’s going to be a beautiful day. 🧶Yarn: (MC)- handspun 3 ply Oatmeal Corriedale & (CC) Homestead Worsted in “Rusted Root” #primroseyarnco #handspunyarn #handspun #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspunstagram #sparkcardigan #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #strandedcolorwork #strandedknitting #stranded #colorchanging #colorshifting #colorshift #knittersofinstagram #knittersofig #knitting_inspiration #knit #knittingaddict #knittingismytherapy #knittinglove #knittinginspiration #knityourstyle #craftastherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CHk3aQ0Bfa_/?igshid=124wop60yf2l2

No baby yet- but we have sleeves! Our awesome 🇺🇸USA made ethically sourced leather project bags and notions pouches have been restocked in the shop! The project bags are perfect for large or small projects, with a zipper closure at the top to make sure none of your essentials escape. They come with a very sturdy clip on crossbody leather strap, as well as two shoulder handles. They also have a great leather pocket on the inside for phones, extra needles or hooks, and a leather hoop for looping your keys through. Our notions pouches are a great accessory you can toss in your project bag with enough room to carry any notions you may need on the go. Notions pouches are secured with a zipper top. #primroseyarnco #notionspouch #projectbag #leatherbag #usaleather #usamade #madeintheusa #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #sparkcardigan #sparkandspicekal #strandedknitting #strandedcolorwork #stranded #strandedcolourwork #knittersofinstagram #knitters #knittersofig #knittersoftheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/CDmuUNbBtcQ/?igshid=15svucj8m69kt

Have you selected your yarns for the #sparkandspicekal that starts on August 1st?! I have (🧶Journey: “Black Truffle” & various Homestead Worsted mill ends in: “Animal”, “Soda Pop”, “Rusted Root”, “Everything Zen”, “Siren”, “Long Way Down” & “Mystery Date”)! I’m so excited to knit along with all of you for this beautiful pattern by Andrea Mowry. I still have a few kits available in the shop that are pre assembled- all you have to do is select the size you want; but if you don’t see something you like that is already made up, I am happy to help you put one of your very own together, and give you the discounted kit price 😉 Shoot me an email and we will make it happen! . . #primroseyarnco #dreareneeknits #sparkcardigan #spicecardi #spicecardigan #sparkcardi #kal #yarn #yarnaddict #yarnlove #yarnspirations #yarnporn #yarnologist #handdyed #millspun #andreamowry #dreareneeknitsdesign #rhinebecksweater #knitalong #yarnkit https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMW5fABWbQ/?igshid=mw4qeywz6n0f

Fall Bullet Journal calendar / organizational prep while I work on my Spark Cardigan! 🧶STOCKISTS🧶: I will be reopening “dye to order” in October, but through the rest of August and September will be accepting a maximum of 3 wholesale orders per month. If you are interested in anything currently listed in the shop, please email me at: [email protected]. I am accepting new wholesale accounts at this time, and they will be added to the dye queue starting in October. I will be working through wholesale at a first come first serve basis so please contact me ASAP if you are interested in having yarn before the new year. I just started the third color (Homestead Worsted: “Siren”), and I’m flying through this project! I think the constant changes of the contrasting colors are making this project feel super quick. 📝I also am starting something new: Bullet Journaling! Every year, I order a calendar, and every year, it sits on a shelf. I think I feel extremely limited by the pre-laid out spread a calendar has, and how daunting filling an entire book feels. I’ve decided to invest a few hours at the beginning of each month, planning out my own spread, which also includes sections for knitting goals and projects I’m working on. I will be sharing more about this new approach to the organization of my knitting WIPS and FOS at a later time, but thought that it may be helpful and an interesting option for those of you trying to move away from online knitting platforms. Creating the beautiful layouts and being free to design planners that work best for you is half the fun! 🧶Yarn: Journey Worsted- “Black Truffle” & Homestead Sport- “Mystery Date”, “Long Way Down” & “Siren” 📄Pattern: “Spark Cardigan” by Andrea Mowry 📓Bullet Journal: @leuchtturm1917 🖊Pens: @sharpie #primroseyarnco #sparkcardigan #dreareneeknits #sparkandspicekal #andreamowry #andreamowrydesigns #strandedcolorwork #strandedknitting #colorwork #knittersofinstagram #knitters #knittersoftheworld #knittersofig #bulletjournal #bulletjournaling #bulletjournalideas #bulletjournalcommunity #leuchtturm1917 #leuchtturm #sharpie #bulletjournalcollection #sharpiedrawing #sharpiemarkers #sharpiepens https://www.instagram.com/p/CDwG1HfBjDM/?igshid=19bvi6t873d9n

I have a few beautiful *READY TO SHIP* Spark Cardigan Kits left in the shop, as well as individual skeins. Our new Homestead Worsted is the softest 3 ply, mill spun, 100% superwash USA wool! Paired with our incredibly soft Journey Worsted, it is a match made in heaven! I absolutely love these two bases, and can see in my future, many Fall and Winter knits! . . #primroseyarnco #dreareneeknits #andreamowry #sparkcardigan #strandedcolorwork #yarn #yarnaddict #yarnlove #yarnspirations #yarnporn #yarnaddiction #yarnlover #indiedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #handdyed #millspun #millspunyarn #nonsuperwashyarn #usawool #madeintheusa #superwash https://www.instagram.com/p/CC56lEzBu0Z/?igshid=wzoldrh5373p
