Blue Fern Yarns MAL
I wanted a way to give back to my lovely customers so have decided to start this ongoing knit-a-long (or any yarny craft along) with only a few of rules.
Enter any Finished Object (FO), using at least 50% or more of Blue Fern Yarns yarn.
Any fibre craft such as knitting, crochet, weaving, macrame or basically anything that you can make with my hand dyed yarns.
I will draw a prize at the end of every quarter (September, December, March and June) and announce the winners on my YouTube Podcast. Prizes may consist of my own hand dyed yarns or other objects which are yarn craft related. EG Project bags, notions, or yarns from other dyers etc.
Any finished object from 1st August 2021 counts, even if you started it a while ago.

There is one Ravelry thread for WIPs and one for FOs, below is the link to both.

My DK Bed socks
I have made some lovely bed socks in my own hand dyed yarn, using some seconds skeins.
These are DK weight yarn and so warm and comfy.
