Lost Again!

I am not sure if it’s part of my Dutch heritage or that I just don’t like wasting anything.  I don’t consider myself ‘cheap’ but I do like to make the best use of my money.  

For that reason I play Yarn Chicken a lot. The frugal person in me likes to use every inch of the ball of yarn. 

When making this newest shop sample I pushed the limits and estimated the number of repeats needed to use the skein efficiently. I lost. Not wanting to pull all the knitting back to redo the work I decided to just leave it to remind me and you that I make mistakes all the time.




The pattern is No Brainer One Skeiner , I used one skein, but 2 would make a great sized scarf/wrap.



The pattern was easy to follow and a great Knit, the Yarn was lovely to work with too!

See you Soon

A*B*C Sale

The shop is in its 10th year! We have accumulated a lot of yarn, there is new yarn arriving every week and we are doing inventory. As we go down the list there is yarn that needs to be discounted so we have decided to choose a letter and head down the list.

Last week we began with the letter A, all the remaining Alpaca Sox left the shop as did the Alpaca Dk. A few A’s remain and there have been some B’s added.
Balder, a Superwash Chunky wool is now just $4.00 for 100 grams,




Boston Mix a chunky hat yarn is also 5.00

,


Bravo Big, a super Chunky yarn is just $5.00 for the 200 Gram skein.




and the remaining few skeins of

Baby Alpaca Sport is just $5.00 as well.

2018?



Well, I can explain?

As ‘The Farmer’ would say:

‘You are addicted to your IPad.’

Well it is the best way to communicate with you.  For some reason the app disappeared and blogging  could only be done through the computer? 

So we are back, 

There is so much to tell you and I promise to try and keep you up to date.

This is kind of a test, as you can see I have been spinning a bit? It’s been a huge learning curve, but that’s a good thing as learning new skills keeps your brain sharp!  

Let’s see if I can work my way around this new app, another new thing!

See you soon
