Yarn, Yarn, & More Yarn

I'm in the 3rd or 4th week of the going out of business sale and there's still yarn, yarn, and more yarn. Yarn Yarn go away or add to my stash today. Once again Stephanie and I started another new project. The Shalom Cardigan. We're using GGH Aspen. Check out the progress on ravelry.
Speaking of ravelry, if you haven't signed up....Stop reading this, click on the link, sign up, and then come back. Feeling uninspired and don't know what to knit or crochet? Come to knitting group next Thursday at Yarnology. MMMM we start at 11 ish and finish late afternoon. The group will continue after the shop closes. Where? I don't know yet. I have some ideas though. Have you tried the Aussie Bites from Costco? They are a fabulous, sweet and somewhat healthy snack! I've been busy taking pictures and organizing my ravelry notebook. I have soo much fun on that site. Well, I'm off for now. Have a great weekend!!!

Beautiful Day & New Projects

This is the warmest Easter weekend we've had in years. I should be knitting or crocheting at the beach or by the pool instead of working. I've come to the conclusion that my friend Stephanie and I are a bad influence on each other. Why? We start new projects every time we're together. I say, let's get a tattoo Steph. That was kind of random. I started Talia and I'm excited because I get to use one of my favorite yarns, Manos. I couldn't get the first lace row right for the life of me. It's the easiest lace pattern, my mind must be on other things like tattoos and food. I also started Nob Hill and I'm actually close to finishing it. I'm using wool ease. And yes, I started the Tree Jacket in my trademark color, Terracotta in Cotton ease. I really like that yarn. So I have a few projects to finish and oh ya, not to mention the other projects sitting in my knitting bag. I have a few crochet patterns I'm working on as well, yes, I 'm stepping into the world of design. How fun it is!! Happy Easter, I must Yarn On....

A NEW SEASON

Yes, once again it's been awhile since my last post. I'm coming into a new season in my life. It's interesting how our lives can change with the seasons. Spring is fresh and new, colorful and exciting. It has a clean feel to it . The spring showers wash away the dryness of winter and things that lay dormant come to life in the spring. Owning a yarn shop has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I've met wonderful women and made some great friends along the way. You know who you are and I want to thank you for "being you!" Yarnology is closing and I'm looking forward to my next adventure. I think I'll have more time to keep my blog updated. Maybe even add some pictures, ha-ha. So, what lies ahead? Pattern design, a book, and you can check out some of my writing in Live Artfully Magazine. There's more but I have no idea what that is...yet. For now, I have yarn to sell, projects to knit & crochet, articles to write, friends to hang out with, prayers to pray, kids to enjoy, and of course the yukky stuff like bookkeeping and closing the business .
