Hand Dyed Yarns & Handmade Knitting Acccessories

03/22/2026

Finished my last piece (the laundry one) and decided it would be better to finish something else instead of starting something new. Yay me.

This piece has been in hibernation for…..maybe 3 years? 😬 Embarrassing. I remember putting it in timeout after I realized I miscounted & needed to rip out a section. Looking at it the other day I realized it wouldn’t take much to finish it. So I’ve been stitching on it a little each day & I’m getting close.

Now, which ancient to pull out next?

Pattern is: 2023 Temperature cross stitch from . DMC threads, 14 ct Aida.

I love a good crafty thrift! Didn’t want to start another big project, but felt like stitching. Pretty sure my laundry room needs this 😆

Having a quiet stitching day, the 3 of us together in our living room 💕 This was going to be a Christmas gift, but I didn’t finish it in time. It’s very close to being finished though, so I’m working on it with the hopes of starting 2026 fresh, with a good plan.

Hope your winter holidays have been cozy & warm!🧣

Happy Thanksgiving (a day late) Friends!

on this beautiful N-Force dahlia from my summer garden. Hoping this weekend to put all my dahlia babies to sleep for the winter, before the rain starts up again.

Life has changed dramatically in the last few months, including going back to a “real” job again. I don’t know what that means for The Violet Valentine and yarn dyeing, but I know I’m still not ready to quit completely. I also know right now I just don’t have the time and energy to dye as I adjust to this new chapter.

But one thing I can say is THANK YOU ❤️ Thank you for every single opportunity, comment, like, purchase and kind word you’ve given me over the years. I am deeply honored and grateful to have been a part of your making journey. This isn’t goodbye, just see you again soon 🥰 Meanwhile, you’ll probably being seeing a lot of regular ‘ol’ project pics and life stuff here if you still choose to check in once in a while. Thank you for being you!
