Deadline Projects

I'm often juggling several projects at the same time, but there's nothing like a deadline or two to put my priorities in order.  One priority project is off the needles.


It's blocking right now, so there's not much else to show. Now I can move on to the next deadline.

A big thank you to everyone who placed an order over the weekend and took advantage of free shipping.  We're still processing orders and hope to be caught up in the next few days.

Holiday Shopping

I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend.  After a mad dash leading up to dinner yesterday, I can finally put my feet up and take some time to relax.  And yes, that includes knitting.

Tomorrow is Small Business Saturday, and we're kicking off the holiday shopping season with free shipping.


This offer is good Saturday, November 25 through Monday, November 27.  No code needed.  Grab supplies for holiday knitting or treat yourself to a special project.

Fading fall colors.

A Fiber Plan

After a busy fiber festival season, I had a couple days off this past weekend.  Apparently I still hadn't had enough fiber-related activities.  Instead of taking it easy, I decided to check out the open house at a local wool warehouse.


Thank goodness I went with a plan.  A warehouse full of fiber can be a very dangerous place.  I managed to stick to the plan . . . for the most part.

Stay tuned.  I have a couple new things coming after the first of the year.

Waiting for Yarn

The good news.  I have a new project that's calling my name.  The bad news.  I have to dye the yarn first.

Dyeing yarn isn't a problem, but finding extra time this week has been challenging.  I plan to dye it in the next few days, and in the meantime, I can work on this.


A soothing, relaxing project.  Just what I need.

The fall foliage is quickly disappearing, but I have these hardy flowers for this week's color inspiration.


Cheerful marigolds.

That's a Wrap

Well, I didn't intend to be away from the blog for quite this long.  The last couple weeks were a little frantic with show prep.  It's been a whirlwind fall with all sorts of fiber fun, and now I can settle down for a little break.

Since I don't have any significant work travel until February, I spent a couple days taking everything out of my truck.  It was a big job, and I'm glad it's over.

Here's a quick look at the booth from Fiber Festival of New England.


This show was a great way to wrap up the fall fiber festival season.  We had a record turnout, and it was fun to touch base with so many of you.  Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth.  

Now that I have some unscheduled time on my hands, I have all sorts of ideas for new projects.  More on that later.  Stay tuned.
