Unbeleafable all plied up! I plied the second set first as I was anxious to see how the colors would play up since each color was paired with it’s neighboring color. I am so overjoyed with how it turned out and cannot wait to show you all the skeins. They are currently drying atm. The first set I had to ball up each gradient color on the Roly-Poly so I could ply from a center pull. I love the way @longdrawjames dyed this gradient set. There is subtle barber poling within the gradient colors that are plied on themselves. The combination of the subtle and then no so subtle really echos the beautiful colors found on fall leaves. Yarn went into the wash yesterday evening and has been drying since last night. I’m hoping to reskein, photograph, and then Roly-Poly all the yarn up sometime tomorrow. Unbeleafable on Rambouillet dyed by @longdrawjames. Spun on Maple the Sparrow. #autumnvibes #spinningtoknit #handspunhandknit #shawlknittersofinstagram #espinnersofinstagram #igspinnersinspiration #daedalusspinningwheels

Day 21-24 of the Woobly Wonderland 2023 Advent Calendar by @thewoobles. The Stocking on day 20 was the last item to be crafted. There was a super adorable Woobles themed stocking on day 21. On day 22 there was a packet of iridescent pins which look super adorable placed into the Christmas tree like little sparkly ornaments. Day 23 was filled with an adorable little tin and lastly on the 24th was a set of red and green stitch markers. Before this advent, I had only crocheted 2 items before the Shiba and Frog featured in these photos. I feel like I’ve grown so much from working on this advent. The assortment of a couple of large projects and lots of little projects provided a great mix of techniques and refreshers on some techniques to really help engrain them into my memory. Towards the end, I was thankful that the little projects were done so I could focus on getting some last-minute holiday prep done before we visited family. I’m highly looking forward to taking on another advent in the future and have already started in on some new Woobles. #woobles #wooblescrochet #wooblesadventcalendar #learningtocrochet #amigurumi
