After a lovely weekend, one day I managed to stay in my jammies until way past lunch! I am ready for a big week ahead.
Just arrived: Offhand Designs beautiful bags, designed for knitting, but really just wonderfully handmade vintage bags that are just beyond words. Each is truly a work of art, and be warned the price reflects the workmanship.
A small box of Misty Alpaca Chunky hand paint has been priced and put out ready to make more of those lovely 'cowls' that make the perfect 'I don't know what to get her gifts!'
This Friday is Moonlight Magic, my favourite BIA event, downtown shops will be ready for Christmas shopping. There's a Christmas Tree lighting and all sorts of activities.
(I think I may have a few colours of Frill Seeker coming too!)
edit: Thursday: Frill Seeker arrived, but it's all been claimed! I contacted the supplier, it's all gone! Next shipment arrives...sometime...anytime..no one knows!
See you Soon.

Drat!
The Boy came home!
He brought his camera, and his laundry.
I charged the battery, took many pictures to show you.
The cable from my camera won't fit his!
I think I need to start another shawl!
See you Soon

Going going...
Wow, its the last week of November. Time is going so fast. It has been busy! Thanks to Gwen for chipping in yesterday!
There are windows to change and a lot of empty spots to fill.
Friday night is Mitten night. Come and knit, doesn't need to be mittens, we have a good number and have raised about $125 for charity. I have a secret project I need your help with and as they say many hands make light work, we could work on that too!
I finished the Travelling Women shawl, took a week! There is a shop sample sweater to finish but again I am having 'shawl' withdrawal and its only been 4 days 6 hours....must resist!
Those of you who have been waiting for Frill Seeker will have to wait a little longer, still nothing and a national TV show is featuring it on their program this week! It's a fun knit and I will keep you posted about it's availability!

Gone Home..

Santa came he didn't seem to mind that the Christmas windows didn't get done.
Maybe next week!
Enjoy what's left of your weekend.
See you Tuesday.

The Day after the Night before....
If you missed 'What a Girl Wants' you missed a fun evening. I had one knitter come and visit! Charlene came and treated some 'Girls' to a hand massage. A few Baba Tree Baskets made there way to new homes!
I got home just past my bedtime, and therefore I slept in just a little.
Tomorrow, Saturday, Santa comes to Bowmanville. It's a lovely parade and this is its 49th! The Parade starts at 10:30 ish and runs usually about an hour. The shop will be open from 9:30 am, mostly because if I come any later I can't get into my parking spot!
This is also to remind you that parking is limited on these events, come early or later if you need to park close to the shop!
Not only is this the Morning after, it's also the Night Before!

I think I will open Mondays!
Not really.
Just that Mondays are truly catch up days. Yesterday I:
1. Travelled to Brooklin to get supplies for our water system at the house
2. Took the car into Oshawa for an oil change,
3. Picked up some wooden hangers and wandered the organising store.
4. Purchased a new virus software for the computers and debated about more music CD's.
5. Groceries. (The Farmer says upon opening fridge: "Look! A magic box, one day there is nothing the next it is full!)
6. To Osso Lighting to get light bulbs for the windows, actually would like new fixtures too!
7. To the Shop to put out the recycling
8. The dishwasher is looking to retire, we need a replacement soon, suggestions?
(Eating out is on the top of the list of my favorites, but not practical!)
Then home....to knit?
I did knit during the visit to the car dealership. I think I am going to finish this shawl in record time. You may need to sign up for Ravelry to see the pattern, you should anyway, but be warned time flies when you are on this site!
I have come to the shop today to recover but it's chaos here too!
Don't forget about Thursday night...What a Girl Wants!
See You soon.
