Qing Fibre is our first Yarn Along dyer!

Hold onto your needles because we've got some exciting news to share – Qing Fibre is officially joining us for this year's Yarn Along! Get ready for a whirlwind of colour and creativity because Qing Fibre is bringing their signature style and innovative yarns to the party.

But before we get too carried away, let's dive into what they're excited for this year:

Q: Any favourite YAL designs from previous years that you can't forget? A: They dished about their love for the Smock It shawl, a design that holds a special place in their heart as it marked their debut in the YAL scene back in 2017. More recently, they've been swooning over the Bubbly Blossoms Shawl for its modern flair and stitch combinations.

Q: What's your go-to stitch, whether making it or admiring it? A: They're all about those funky stitch combos! From slip stitches in Stephen's shawl designs to the centipede stitch in the I can knit myself flower shawl, they're obsessed with stitches that add texture and charm to any project.

Q: What are you hoping to see in this year’s YAL? A: "Innovative colourwork, textured stitch techniques, and maybe even some unexpected yarn base mixes," they shared.

Q: With this year’s theme focusing on Architecture, any favorite architectural styles or buildings? A: They're all about the sleek lines and geometric elegance of iconic structures like the Guggenheim Museum. The way form and function come together in architectural marvels like these never fails to inspire their creative juices.

With Qing Fibre on board, we're gearing up for a Yarn Along that's sure to be a wild ride of colour, creativity, and boundless inspiration.
