Baby blanket is slowly getting there! I’m not sure how big I should make this, any suggestions? . . . #knitstagram #knitbabyblanket #babyblanket #knittingpattern #knittersofinstagram #ravelry #ravelrypattern #ravelrydesigner #wildknits #strickenmachtglücklich #strickenentspannt #babydecke #yarnlove #yarnaddiction #knittinglove https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsd7MR1FHba/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ogvu1ffh2ecr

I think I will be adding more of this super bulky single ply Merino. Did not much like the solids I played with but I do like the multi colored skeins. Runs about 76 yds per 100 g skein, so it’s a quick knit. . . . #indiedyer #yarnspirations #yarndyer #indiedyedyarn #handdyedyarn #knittinglove #wolle #handgefärbtewolle #iloveyarn #knitstagram #behindthescenes #becreative #indieyarn #yarnshop #handpaintedyarn

I haven’t worked on new colors in a while. Sometimes it’s just restocking and things get a little boring. This week was dedicated to new things, so here is one of the new colors. This is my single ply Merino base, fingering weight. Any name suggestions? . . . #indiedyer #handdyedyarn #knittersofinstagram #knittingaddict #yarndyeing #handdyedwool #wolle #handgefärbtewolle #wildlilacmoon #merinowool #knitting_inspiration #knitstagram #instaknitting #indieyarn #indieyarndyer

Some new colors coming soon. This is such a soft single ply bulky Merino blend. It’s around 76yds |100g and look how beautifully it takes the dye. These colors make me happy :) . . . #indiedyer #bulkyyarn #yarn #yarndyer #yarnlove #yarndyeing #yarnaholic #yarnaddict #knitting #knitstagram #knittingaddict #knittingsupplies #knittersofinstagram #knitting_inspiration #wool #indiedyers #coloradoknitters #colorinspiration #snowdye #stricken #wolle #handdyed #handmade #handdyedwool #handdyedyarn #handgemacht #handgefärbt #handgefärbtewolle

Zucchini are one of the few things that do really well in Colorado without fuzzing over them. I think my most favorite way to use them is as an addition to my home made tomato sauce. I bread them with flour and Parmesan and fry them in olive oil in a pan. Added to the sauce it’s quite a wonderful meat substitute. In Italy we used to batter and fry the flowers. I also add zucchini to Neva’s raw diet. What is your favorite way to use them? . . . #coloradogarden #organicfood #backyardgarden #growyourownfood #selfsustainable #vegetarianeating #biogarten #vegetablegarden

So this year I allowed my garlic to bloom. The actual garlic bulbs are therefore a little smaller since some of the energy went into the blooms but now I have these tiny little garlic bulbils. I’ll just leave them to sprout and hopefully have more garlic next year. I usually replant using some of the gloves from the harvest, so this will be an adventure 😀 🌱.

It’s berry season! After many years of trial and error we finally managed to protect the berries the right way so the birds won’t get them! No worries, they have two black current bushes to feast on 😄 What’s you favorite berry? . . . #coloradogardening #coloradospringsgardens #organicgardening #berries #redcurrent #berryharvest #organiclife #selfsustainable #growyourownfood #organicfood #backyardgarden
