My original dyeing of Cabernet was a little sloppy I’ll admit. My inspiration came from the second photo. I think I was trying to capture too many elements from the photo instead of focusing on what drew me to it in the first place. The second photo is of my close friend from high school. He wanted to be a model soooo bad when we were young. Finally this year, he was signed to an agency! Sometimes I think we forget the what and the why of the process and end up all over the... place and stretched too thin. But when you focus on what you want and what you believe in you get amazing results. A beautiful colorway and living out your childhood dreams.

Let me tell ya: sometimes the photos will be perfect, and sometimes your kitten will insist on being apart of the marketing campaign. Either way, the photos came out great! Purrsephone is lounging with 2AM at The Pink on the Elmwood Village fingering base. This colorway has always been a hit so expect it to be included with EVERY update, including the sock yarn update next week on Saturday 9/12 at noon EST! #catsofinstagram #catsofbuffalo #yarn #yarnporn #yarnaholic #yarnaddict #sockyarn #handdyed #handdyedyarn #indiedyer #indiedyersofinstagram #indiedyedyarn #makerstrong #ourmakerlife #bipocmakers #bipocinfiber #bipocdyer #blackcrochetersofinstagram #blackknittersofinstagram #knittingwhileblack #diversknitty #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #crochetaddict #knitaddict #knittersofinstagram #knit #knottybuffalo #buffalove #buffalony
