The Spooky Fiber Haunt at Green Goat Ranch: The Ranchbusters' Latest Mission
It was a dark and stormy night at Green Goat Ranch—well, not really, but it sure felt like it when the ghosts from the Ghostbusters universe decided to haunt the barn! Each spirit brought its own mischievous flair, causing woolly chaos among the fibers. Luckily, the Ranchbusters (a.k.a. us, armed with spinning wheels) were called in to capture these colorful specters and transform them into something truly spectacular.
First up, we encountered the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, his fluffy form floating through the ranch with a mischievous grin. Our solution? A plying pair that perfectly captures his essence: one braid of Rambouillet wool in a gradient from marshmallow white to a toasty brown, paired with a patriotic twist of red, white, and blue. A sweet treat for your spinning wheel!
Then came Slimer, oozing his way through the pasture, leaving a trail of green goo (or maybe it was envy). We captured him in a duo of green Rambouillet braids—one in solid green and the other in a deepening gradient from green to dark green. Spin these together, and you’ll have a ghostly green yarn that’s positively haunting.
But the spookiness didn’t stop there. Vigo the Carpathian emerged from his painting, casting a golden-brown glow over the ranch. Our plying pair for Vigo features a regal gradient of golden brown in one braid and a deep, dark brown in the other—yarn fit for a ghostly emperor.
The Librarian, with her eerie shushes, was next. She floated silently, casting shadows in shades of white and deep purple. We captured her in a merino wool and viscose blend that transitions from ghostly white to haunting purple, perfect for adding some mysterious sophistication to your stash.
And let’s not forget Zuul, the Gatekeeper, who stomped in with a fierce mix of nut browns and a striking combo of bone and red. This plying pair is all about power—ready to unlock your spinning potential with some serious attitude.
The Scoleri Brothers showed up as a dynamic duo of trouble, wreaking havoc in shades of white, blue, and dark blue. We caught their energy in a plying pair that transitions from white to blue in one braid and deep dark blue in the other. Perfect for spinning up some ghostly mischief!
Finally, we faced Gozer, the Destructor, who came with a bang! We captured her in a luxurious fiber batt blending flesh tones, natural flax, white bamboo, and a bit of Firestar for that extra spark. Spin it if you dare—but remember, Gozer doesn’t do anything halfway!
Each ghost brought its own unique challenge, but the Ranchbusters were up to the task. Now, these spectral fibers are ready to be spun into yarn that’s out of this world. Whether you’re looking to create something hauntingly beautiful or just want to add a bit of ghostly fun to your projects, this Ghostbusters collection has you covered.
