Did you know that at Idlenot we have a Be You-tiful color way that celebrates Pride all year long? Available in our delicious silk mohair blend, DK, worsted, and bulky weights, 10% of the proceeds of the sale of every skein is donated to Battenkill Valley Pride. Now THAT is something to love! Happy Things We Love Thursday!

Heck yeah! We love to see the next generation finding unexpected uses for fiber arts in their lives, and Zachary is doing just that! His mom is one of our regulars at our weekly maker meetups so we'd heard about his chicken saddle project, and while some of us were disappointed it didn't involve miniature cowboys and tiny rodeo dioramas, we love seeing Zachary tackle the problem of his family's chickens' feather loss and find a creative (and fun) solution. Way to go, Zachary!!

Hi my name is Zachary Traunig. I am 13 years old and I go to Cambridge central school. I am sewing and selling chicken saddles for my 8th grade agriculture project.

I got this idea because my chickens had feather loss. My mom had talked about chicken saddles, so I decided to make some and it caught on. I decided to use fun fabric and make them reversible too. There is a layer of felt/fleece on the inside for extra padding.

For the next month I will be selling the chicken saddles for $15 a piece. I will have other fabric patterns as well. If you would like a saddle, please email me at - [email protected].

We’re having a moment with our fiesta tweed DK yarn. With neon Donegal tweed neps sprinkled throughout this extra-fine superwash merino, we couldn’t resist dying up some extra-fun, extra-bright, summery colors to go with them. Perfect for a light summer tee or an unexpected detail, these freshly dyed skeins are definitely what we’re loving this week. Happy Things We Love Thursday!

This is the time of year that we’re totally loving our 100% vintage wool twin size camp blankets. Perfect to toss on the ground for an impromptu picnic during a concert or to wrap around your shoulders while sitting by the campfire, you’ll wonder what you ever did without ‘em. Happy Things We Love Thursday!

🚨 New product alert 🚨 …and just in time for Things We Love Thursday! We’re head over heels for these new felt project bags with leather drawstring accents, and the pockets - the POCKETS! - that can hold needles, hooks, yarn, stitch markers, o my! Yes, with lots of colors to choose from, we know you’ll see one that you just HAVE to have!

It’s another Things We Love Thursday, and what could we love more than being able to take a little bit of Idlenot wherever we go with this super cool (or hot) travel mug? A reminder not to take your day too seriously and to be awesome today, this is one thing we know you’ll love too. ❤️

Happy Muthah's Day to everyone who fills that role, in whatever form that may take! Idlenot will be closed today while Kate and Mackenzie hang out with their respective families (and probably spend most of the day knitting or crocheting).

Enjoy the day!

A friendly reminder that we’re asking our fiber show artists to pick up their work by the end of shop hours today (we’re open until 4 pm) (This also means that you’ve still got time to get Mom that last minute gift, too…hint, hint….) as we’ll be closed tomorrow for Mother’s Day.
