  1. Calling all those who signed up for the October Yan Tan Tethera Yarn Club - it's time for the big reveal!

    Introducing 'Ladybird', a 100g skein of 75% British Wool/25% nylon mix yarn. It was inspired by the image of the same name by @shutterspot

    Included in the box is a copy of the inspiration photograph, a notepad and buttons.

    Boxes are already on their way. Happy knitting!

  2. The #22spotladybird #Psyllobora #vigintiduopunctata (#Coccinellidae) is distributed in Europe, Asia and North Africa. The animals live on the edges of forests, meadows and often on oak trees. Because these are often psrasitized by powdery #mildew (#Erysiphaceae), which is convenient for the #ladybird as it feeds on mildew. When threatened, the adult beetles play dead (#thanatosis). #biodiversity
