Happy New Year!
I’m back to work, taking photos of my yarn and beginning to upload them to the shop. I’ll be doing a few batches every day, so keep checking back to see what’s new. The first yarn going up is my MCN blend, Luxe Fingering. I’m using “Sprung” to knit a pair of stockinette socks with short-row heels. SO soft!
Time for catch up, I guess! A lot has happened lately. We got a new kitten named Cocoa. She’s a diluted orange tabby and we’ve had her for a few months now. She fell in love with everyone immediately, but the other three took their time warming up to her. Now they’re all friends, and she sleeps with the other ladies at night. When she’s not sitting on my face and farting, that is.
What else? My son and his friends decided to participate in No Shave November, which was nothing more than a bunch of guys refusing to shave until Dec. 1 just because they’ve discovered they can grow hair; apparently you’re allowed to be lazy if you give it a Name and a time limit. I thought it was hilarious, and I have a couple of photos of my son, Bearded Alex, but I haven’t uploaded them yet! Soon! It’s not as easy to get photos of him as it used to be.
The holidays were really nice, especially because I forgot my camera and didn’t have to worry about taking photos. We brought Cocoa with us to my mom’s place. My mom likes her the best at the moment because she’s kind of beige and matches my mom’s furniture, heh. I got some new dishes from my sister and they’re terribly cute. I’ve been rapidly running out of dishes because loading the dishwasher is the Bearded Son’s job, and he has a bit of a heavy hand. I refuse to excuse him from the chore simply because he’s clumsy, so Natalie got us some dishes that are much harder to break. Genius.
And now, I have to go because if I don’t feed my cat Jonah I’m going to be hella sorry!

You’re back to dying yarn! I’m so glad!!! But, ahem… I’ve tried to stalk your shop, and it keeps bouncing me back to the blog. Whyfore? Happy New Year to you, hubster, Bearded Son, and all your farting kitties, heh.
Thanks Chelle! I hope for you, too.
Tara, yeah, I haven’t opened it up yet. Right now I’m photographing and cataloguing. I have more to do than I thought…still writing and editing product descriptions, all the really FUN stuff (ha ha). If you do see anything you’d like on Flickr, just let me know and I’ll save it for you.
Oh, Cocoa, you are sweet in name and face.
Maggie, glad you’re back!
HEY MAGGIE – glad to see that you are back – love the new kittie- will look forward to visiting your shop
