Exciting news was released last month about our next Breed Blends & Colour Study! Meaghan of Bramble Ridge Hand Dyed Yarn has teamed up with Wool n’ Spinning to produce a Wool n’ Spinning specific blend for us to spin, applying all our learning from this fall’s Yarn Structure explorations (see below). To contribute photos for Meaghan’s inspiration (theme: DEEP FALL), please post them here (Ravelry).
Information for ordering, Meaghan’s story and more will be released January 1st – STAY TUNED!
