Happy post-turkey day. I’ll use just a single excuse for not being present this week—between Monday and Wednesday, we received 21 (yes, twenty one) large boxes of yarn. It’s a little wild in these parts……between the 10 on Monday, 5 on Tuesday, and 6 on Wednesday, we’re crammed full of yarn in these [...]
Sorry for this, but it’s a B-U-S-Y day for me and I don’t have any spare time to blog today. We’ve had a very active weekend at the shop, despite the warm weather over the past three days, so I’ve not had time to catch up. Plus Matt’s needed the computer to create [...]

Koigu’s a-comin’, just in time (Wednesday) for your holiday shopping pleasure over the weekend. That’s the UPS tracking number up there—Taiu provides one when the box enters the UPS system. I like using it for stalking purposes……..so can you
In the box are
Koigu Fancy–a new fiber for us, which is a boucle and used [...]

Get the number of the semi that hit me yesterday………….URGH! I adore the “after effects” of the cooking and fun of Third Thursday–the joy of watching folks consume. I know I get it from both of my grandmothers, as they were both feeders……..they would cook all day until their legs would drop off, [...]
I’ve been shakin’ the trees with different vendors this morning, trying to pry loose several yarn orders. It’s working–it’s WORKING! Plus I got some amazing news from one of our best business partners……….and amazing artists!
Noro Yarns–should be shipping today or tomorrow, which means they’ll arrive Tuesday or Wednesday
Debbie Bliss Yarns–should be leaving tomorrow [...]
I’m off, shortly, to go make yogurt dips and kabobs and all sorts of wonderful Persian things–Matt did some tiptoeing around upstairs (it was dry to the touch, but I wouldn’t put furniture down) and found the cookbook. Now to get the house and shop in order…….this may be more monumental………
First off, MAJOR THANKS [...]
It typically kicks my (wide) butt. Monday is the Franklin Knit Night (Hey Christie, Renee, Pam, Kris) and Tuesday is Columbus Knit Night (hi to all who were there), Wednesday we’re open late, and Thursday is our monthly dinner-and-knit-night extravaganza. This month is supposed to be “The Flavors of Persia”, but my Persian [...]
Both in the weather and in my head, it’s foggy around here. After a busy weekend of events and friends around, I crashed hard yesterday. I napped in the afternoon and fell asleep early while Matt assembled the new computer desk (now two computers to serve you better—seriously). Speaking of events……..
Peasley in [...]
Whew! Almost through another week! And not a minute too soon, mind you. Tonight, the effervescent Sarah Peasley, Handknitter, arrives with Irene, whom we know from our days in Lansing (MI)…sidebar–Irene’s a fellow Lithuanian! As is Theresa, as is Sandy, and probably a few others of you out there. And [...]
