Autumn Range — Shade No. 2: ‘Beetroot! 🫜
It’s been another busy day here at Flock & Skein, carding wool and creating lots of lovely autumnal fluff — and I’ve been looking forward to showing you this one.
After introducing Pumpkin yesterday, it’s time to reveal the second shade in our new Autumn Range…
Meet ‘Beetroot’ 🫜 🍁 🍁
Beetroot is a beautiful, earthy Russet Burgundy. Deep, warm and full of autumn character.
I think it’s going to be a lovely one for needle felting — autumn leaves, berries, or fungi and all those gorgeous little details that make an autumnal creation come to life.

And for those of you who like to spin, it’ll make a rather lovely autumn yarn too.

Pumpkin was yesterday… Beetroot is today… I wonder what next week will bring?
I’m having far too much fun creating this collection and I hope you enjoy seeing it come together as much as I am!
So… what would you make with Beetroot?

🧶 ATTENTION, CRAZY KNITTERS! 🧶😂

You know who you are… 👀
The ones who see a gorgeous ball of yarn and immediately start planning a project… despite having enough yarn at home to knit your way to 2037! 😜

The ones who visit every yarn shop in every new town, carry a project just in case, have more needles than you can count… and still somehow NEED ANOTHER SET! 😂

And let’s not even mention the phrase “just one more row…” 👀🧶

You’re not obsessed… you’re just keeping your hands busy! 😉😂

📚🐑 JUST ADDED TO THE WEBSITE! 🐑📚

I’m rather chuffed to say that Flock & Skein gets a little mention in The Wonder of Wool: A Knitter’s Guide to Pure Breed Sheep. 🥰 And what a lovely book to be mentioned in!
A celebration of Britain’s incredible sheep breeds and the wonderfully diverse wool they produce — from the sheep themselves, their history and habitats, right through to the fleeces and yarn they create.
With 30 pure British breeds, beautiful photography and 10 knitting patterns designed around different breed-specific yarns, it’s a proper love letter to British wool. 🐑🧶❤️
For knitters, spinners, weavers, felters and anyone who has ever looked at a sheep and thought “I wonder what I could make with you?”… this one’s for you!

And we’re especially delighted that Flock & Skein has made it into its pages. 🥹
So yes… you could say we’re feeling sheariously proud today. 😉
The Wonder of Wool is available to pre-order now on the Flock & Skein website.

We can’t wait to get this one on the shelves! 🐑❤️

🍂🎃 NEEDLE FELTERS… IT’S HAPPENING. 🎃🍂
The nights are slowly drawing in, the leaves are getting their autumn wardrobe on and suddenly we’re all pretending we need to make 47 tiny pumpkins. 😂
So… are you making autumnal things yet? 🍄🦊🍁🎃
Or are you still in denial that summer is packing its bags?
We’ve got a fabulous new selection of carded, hand-dyed North Country Mule wool ready for all your autumnal shenanigans.

And first up… meet ‘Pumpkin. 🧡
Perfect for making… well… Pumpkins!
Obviously. 😂

Although I suspect some of you wonderfully woolly people will turn it into something completely unexpected. A fox? A mushroom? A slightly wonky autumn creature with questionable life choices? We can’t wait to see! 😜

So, what’s on your autumn felting list?
Show us your woolly plans… before we accidentally make another pumpkin. 🎃😂

🧶 ATTENTION, CRAZY CROCHETERS! 🧶😂🤣😂

You know who you are… 👀
The ones who say “I’m only popping in for a look” and somehow leave with enough yarn to keep you crocheting until 2037. 😜

The ones who crochet everywhere, carry a project just in case, have a stash that’s getting slightly out of control… and yet somehow still NEED MORE YARN! 😂

You’re not obsessed… you’re just prepared. 😉🧶
