An Introduction

Well, July is here.

And with July comes the looming opening date of my yarn shop. (The 17th... mark your calendars)

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't absolutely terrified. Being someone with anxiety, my brain is constantly trying to undermine me and tell me that everyone is going to hate my yarn and that I'll be stuck with a whole bunch of stash that I'll never be able to get through. Not to mention all the money I'm out.

But I can't sell yarn if I don't, y'know, show it off...

But I've still been weirdly reluctant to write this post... to introduce y'all to my yarn. Even though I adore it all. Like REALLY love it.

So, I'm going to fight against my instinct to apologize for it all and instead just show you what I have to offer.

Without further ado, here are Black Goat Fibers official repeatable colors.

For the initial launch, I'm offering three repeatable colors and a whole butt-load of one-off's. Like a TON of them.

But let's just focus on the three.

First up is Moonwashed Lavender.

It hovers between silver and purple, depending on lighting and what you pair it with. 

I accidentally created this color when I was just chucking random dyes together to see how they worked and absolutely fell in love. 

This is shown on my lace weight base, Omen.

Next up is probably my favorite name so far, Goat Feathers.

This is cooler than a celery color, but more green than sea foam. Not quite mint, either. 

But it's A Good Heckin' Green, if I do say so myself.

This is on Familiar, a fingering weight merino/nylon base.

And lastly we have Cloaked.

A very deep cool grey, Cloaked is a great neutral and pairs well with practically everything. Especially with the other two colors in the collection.

I don't want to overwhelm y'all with everything I have, so I'll leave this here for now.

This is also on the Omen base. I do have one other base, but I haven't gotten those photographed yet.

Good lord, there's still so much to do...

*panic intensifies*

Anyway, next time I'll show you the shawl I made with these three colors and share what it felt like to actually make something with my own products.

For now, here's a teaser.

Cheers!
