Fiber Christmas - Just a few days away

I'm so excited to Fiber Christmas! Its this friday and saturday at the Creek Count Fairgrounds and if you lie in Oklahoma, you should make an effort to go. The people who run it are great and the vendors and classes are many. I get to put on my Farm Girl Fiber shirt and encourage people to pet the pretty yarns and then give them a good home. :-) If I could finish my honeymoon shawl then Bridg would have a really nice display sample. But the asymmetrical shawl I took to the Brush Creek Barn thing is her dyeing as well, so I suppose I will just take that. I am hoping over the two day event to see and learn a lot of things and meet cool people and, of course, have time to knit, knit, knit. :-) Maybe I'll even spin a little. I haven't spun much since I learned last year at Fiber Christmas. Its not that I don't enjoy it, its just that knitting gives me a finished product and spinning gives me something with which to make a finished product. Anyhow, it shawl be a wonderful week and you should drop in! Friday 4-8 and saturday 8-8 at the Creek County Fairgrounds!!!

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,...
