Knitting Is My Drug

I am interrupting my slow accounting of our vacation to bring you a quick shop update.  

I have started on a new themed line of stitch markers.  These markers are made from polymer clay beads that look like various prescription drugs.  (Disclaimer: They are simply meant to be fun, not to support drug use)  I often hear people I knit with talk of being 'addicted' to knitting or about knitting being their 'therapy' or drug, so here you go!
 This first set is a set of five little vicodin.  :-)  Aren't they awesome?  I just love how they turned out.
 This next set is 5 capsule style pills.  I love how they came out too and they are varnished to look shiny just like real prescription capsules.
 I also did a 'mixed baggie' set with a few of each for the person who wants to really party with their knitting.  ;-)
 I can't believe how real they look!  I've had so much fun dreaming up this set that I think I will continue this theme.  I have a few more ideas up my sleeve, but if there was a particular drug you would want to see as a stitch marker, what would it be?
Stop on by my etsy if you want to pick up a set!  Also, I will be at Fiber Christmas in July the last weekend in July at the Creek County Fairgrounds in Kellyville, OK.  I will post a whole bunch more info on that soon!

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!
