Christmas Knitting

I still haven't taken pictures of the stockings hanging up or even of the third stocking at all, but back before I made that one I took this picture fo my Christmas knitting. Since then I have added 2 more (and brighter) washcloths to the stack and the third stocking. What I can't decide is if the washcloths will be gifted or if I want to keep them for myself and put them in my guest bathroom. Or put the 2 bright ones in the guest bathroom and the more muted one in the kitchen. I usually have a dishcloth laying out in front of the coffee pot to catch drips and that muted dishcloth would add a nice christmas-y accent there. We shall see.


I've been doing a whole lot of gift knitting, so I can't really talk much about it. Wouldn't want people to stumble over this way and find out what they're getting. I love giving presents and there are a few in particular that I am really excited to give this year. :-) I really hope that the receiving parties like them as much as I think they will.

GIVEAWAY!!!

As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn.  I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn!  Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does.  That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop!   Before the goods, a recap:  I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year.  I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it.  This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn!  You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it.  Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn!  It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic!  Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up. ...

Production Day & Giveaway!

There is less than a week until the Arkansas Fiber Arts Extravaganza. Even though my stitch markers didn't move well at Indie Emporium, I have high hopes for them this coming weekend. This audience will be completely different, for starters. This time it is a fiber specific event and the people who are coming should actually know what they are! Despite not being very down in inventory, I decided to have a production day to add variety to my stock. It started out as me thinking, oh I'll just make a few today while I have some time. Then I got going and decided I was having fun, so why not have some Chai and make some more. Riley helped by pushing me off the sofa more than once. Ripley did too, but I didn't catch a picture of him doing it. By mid afternoon I had opened new beads, fixed myself a tray of grapes and cheese, finished off the chai and was grooving at a pretty good pace. By the time I needed to get up and get going for my evening plans I had made 15 new sets,...
