‘Halftone’ – Our Mill Open Weekend Special by Tiny Fibre Studio
As part of our annual Mill Open Weekend shenanigans, we always create a limited-edition mini collection of yarn and tops to help celebrate in style. This year we’ve been even more excited than usual, as we’ve been collaborating with some rather fabulous designers and industry leaders!
Both Becks of Tiny Fibre Studio and Amanda Hannaford have created some incredible fibre tops and we can’t get enough of these beautiful piles of floof!
Becks, of Tiny Fibre Studio, is a teacher at both our in-person and virtual Mill Open Weekends this year and so we just had to ask her to create a unique top for the celebrations too! Cor blimey, her fibre blend ‘Halftone’ is just the most fun! Inspired by CMYK printing, she’s created a striped sensation of cyan, magenta and yellow which can be spun in a multitude of different ways – either separated out to create three shades in one, or all spun together to create a dark, heathered colour.
You’ll find our other Mill Open Weekend specials – ‘Moonage Daydream’ by Emily from Tin Can Knits, ‘Dark Star’ by Aleks Byrd, ‘Space Talk’, by Ysolda Teague-Long and ‘Whipsiderry’ by Amanda Hannaford.
