Black Isle Yarns

Black Isle Yarns Black Isle Yarns produces local, sustainable and natural yarns - grown in the Scottish Highlands and spun in the UK.

Website is working 😅. Stock is loaded! I’m so sorry, that has not been a good way to have my last update. I hope you’ll still take a wee look now if you tried earlier and didn’t get anywhere. 🙈

SORRY - I’m afraid I have a website problem and can’t access it (front or backend) to add in stock for tonight’s update. I’ll keep trying and will add as soon as I’m able to. I’ll post here once it’s all updated. Huge apologies 😬

Popping in with a daft cheesy grin to show off my Noctua Cardigan, designed by . It’s knit in my Darach Sport (undyed) and I love it! I finished it quite a few weeks back and have worn it loads since. It’s light but cosy and, with a roomy fit, feels like a real gentle hug of a cardigan.

I knit size 3 which took 4 skeins of Darach, around 380g in total. I’m really tempted to knit another in a dark indigo (and have some set aside to do so 😊).

If you’d like to knit one too there’s lots of sweater quantities of Darach Sport, both undyed and naturally, dyed going into Wednesday’s shop update, 7pm BST. In case you’ve missed my most recent post and newsletter- this is the last ever Black Isle Yarns update.

I’m very delighted to say that I finally have everything lined up for one last shop update- it’s taken a while but hopefully it will have been worth the wait!

I’m planning to send a newsletter over the weekend with all the details, in case you’d like a bit more information. There will be sweater quantities of Darach Sport and limited quantities of a few other yarns (including a little Auchen Sport).

You can see the various yarns and naturally dyed colours which will be available over on my website now - yarns will be ‘in stock’ from 7pm BST on Wednesday 13th May. Photo shows Darach Sport.

Juni and I hope you have a wonderful weekend 😊
