Wool is the Answer

Wool is the Answer Hand dyed yarn, patterns and inspiration You may ask why we have called our new venture Wool is the answer?

For us the answer is simple, as crafters of many things, there is no question to which wool is not the answer!
​
We are a new business based in Lincolnshire set up to sell good quality local sourced wool. We are gradually building up our own hand dyed range of yarn in 4 ply, all of which is hand dyed by us in Lincolnshire. We intend to add to our collection regularly and produce coordinating yarns for use in various knitting projects.
​
We have carefully selected our first supplier, West Yorkshire Spinners, as we fell in love with their colour range and quality, and of course they are "reared, sheared and spun" in Great Britain.
​
At the moment we are starting off small with limited lines but hope to grow quickly with the help of you, our customers. Our aim is to source local good quality yarn to share with you all.
​
Our passion is for vibrant colours so we will try and incorporate this in our choice of products and suppliers as well as our dyeing palette.

Episode 307 is here!

Join us over on YouTube as we tackle the BIG question… how many pumpkins are too many? 🎃

Marie has finished her Kala too by Megan Nodecker in yarn from Nish*ta Rana and is absolutely delighted with the result! She’s already planning a Christmas version of the Trescao sweater.

Dominique is still battling with the Watermark pullover by Marie Greene , but this time the challenges are of a more physical nature! 😂

The Shipshape jumper by Heidi Kirrmaier | Knitting Patterns is finished, apart from a little creative magic needed on the neckline. We can’t wait to see how it turns out!

Grab your projects, settle in with a cuppa and come join us for all the woolly chat, finished projects and WIP adventures!

How beautiful are the colours for Month 2 of our Kaleidoscope Yarn Club?

Marie has added her sequin fluff version into the next section of her Bounce Blanket by Alexa and Emily and Dominique has made the most gorgeous pair of Aran Spiral Bed Socks by Leef Bloomensteil

We absolutely love seeing what everyone is creating with their yarn and how differently the colours come to life in each project!

Don’t forget, Month 3 is still available to pre order, so there’s still time to join in the fun!

Just look at those colours! It’s ridiculously soft and so light. I absolutely love how it’s turned out.

We'll ignore the score but I can't believe I'm still going to football in October in shorts and a t-shirt, it was glorious in Cleethorpes. Obligatory chips pre match whatever the weather 🌞⚽

The Mod Podge worked!

The leaves I collected on my walk have now been turned into the most beautiful autumnal garland. I absolutely love how they’ve kept their colour and texture.

Of course, the mirror felt a little left out… so a few leaves headed over there too! 🍁

A little bit of autumn brought indoors, using things I found on a lovely walk. 🍂 for me

Finally, the first pair of Aran Bedsocks are finished!

They look absolutely fabulous in our Strictly colourway, Foxtrot I’ve really enjoyed this quick knit, so much so that I’ve already started another pair in Tulips.

I used 5.5mm needles throughout and cast on 44 stitches for a UK size 7 foot.

A lovely, satisfying little project and I’m already looking forward to seeing how the Tulips pair turns out! Its definitely a 🔟 from me.
