TOFT Dye Club: Sawyer the Ghariel
My second installment for TOFT's Dyeclub is this fantastic Ghariel. Greens are not usually my colour, but I loved making this up, with a little help from my husband holding the yarn whilst I balled it up on our return journey from
Glasgow at the end of April.
Each quarter the club delivers a 100g skein of hand dyed yarn exclusive to the club, with a pattern written specifically for it. This quarter's animal is Sawyer the Ghariel in green tones with a splash of brown too.
The next installment has already arrived, so if you wanted to join in the club, please see the links below, and keep an eye on the channel for the next video. Thank you for watching!
In the same way as the Crochet Society su...
