Playing With Yarn

Day 4 - more snow



I am putting the day of the post in the heading of each post. It worked good for me when I read Bud Huston's blogs and figure that I will do the same thing. This early morning we took Josephine ( Josse ) into the vet. She is 1 pound bigger then Oct 30th when I took her in for the first time - 6 pounds now. She got her shots and then came home to wrestle with her sisters. Her two top teeth are showing and I can see the four front bottom teeth under the skin. We wouldn't have to get her dentures.

I took my Wrap off of the blocking wires this morning. I have the top edge knit on and am starting the bottom edge. I am so very pleased with the way that it looks. One of the pictures from the pattern is at the left. I did mine in different yarn and am taking some pictures of it to put on the Blog. It has been such fun to knit and when I figure out how to structure a class, we will be offering it as a class.

The Kaffe Fassett, Regia sock yarn has arrived. What great colors! What fun yarn! And all I needed was more sock yarn. But we do have a great selection. The sock yarn picture is one of the amazing color ways that Kaffe developed for this special limited time Collection Yarn.


And today the shipment of Erdal's Lazer arrived. The lazer shelves are full again and I did add a couple of new colors. This is such a great wool/acrylic blend with solid colors. It knits up beautifully and washes wonderfully AND it has a great price point. I used it as the solid color in my Wrap with Universals Classic Long Print as the self stripping yarn. All of the yarn comes to $37.05, a very nice price for such a large project. I think that two if the Wraps connected would make a nice size afghan.

Now I have to run. I have some ad copy to get ready and yarns to shelf. And the snow just keeps coming.
