Things to come

The list of things that I want to do is so long that I know it is ridiculous, but in relation to my knitting, here are my very lofty goals.

This January I want to add some things to my line of handknits with a focus on little luxuries.  I will be using fine yarns, pretty patterns, etc.  These things may take longer (and there by cost more) but in the end I think they will be so worth it.

I also want to get some children's things back in inventory.  Children's things don't seem to hang around long, so my goal is to try and have at least a handful on hand at all times.  Little hats, bows, etc.

In between all that I want to still take a moment or two to make things for myself, Ben, and friends.

I started my luxurious knitting this week with a lovely cowl for a girl I have known practically my entire life.  It was nice to knit on something super soft (90% superfine merino, 10% cashmere) while I was laying around being sick.  I am shipping her cowl off to her today and hopefully I can get some pictures posted soon.

Speaking of pictures, if you own something I have knit or have made something from one of my patterns, you should definitely take a picture of it and stay tuned for my January promotion.  Yes, the two things are connected.

I think it's a great idea to make lots of items for kids. I've noticed that even parents who aren't in the mood to buy things for themselves will still buy for their children. Good luck with your goals!

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. ...

More Partying

Joining in with Tickle Me Tuesday!  I hope I'm not overloading you, but it's fun to party  ;-) I love this apron , but being a non-pinky, I wish it was blue. These amazing  soaps .   Yes, I said soaps!!! I can't stop looking at them.  One of these days I have to give in and order some. I want this  dress  sooooo bad. feminine, country, old fashioned... love. These  potholders  belong in my coffee themed kitchen.  I gaze at them often. So, those are just a few things tickling my fancy.  Sundresses are also tickling my fancy, if it would only get warm! Go visit the party and see what is tickling everyone else's fancy today!
