RIP, You Knit What Two

You Knit What Part 2 is no more. Gone to that great yarn stash in the beyond. Sigh and farewell. They were a pretty worthy followup to the great You Knit What. The original blog is still available for viewing. And all I can say about that is…

SWANCHO!!! (must click!)

Working furiously

I am working hard to increase my inventory before the Contemporary Handweavers of Houston Annual Sale later this month, September 24-26 at the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft. If you’ve never been to this, you really should go and see! The variety of merchandise is just breathtaking.

Here are my current thread colors. I’m making tiny things as fast as I can, and then shooting them. Come out and see!

blues and greens

pinks and purples

golds and neutrals

Back to business

The move (local) is done. The potential job change is not happening, so that distraction is gone. Now I can get back to work in earnest! I’ve got a few events on my calendar, and I’m waiting to finalize a few more. Probably Dickens on the Strand, but I haven’t quite gotten that together yet. Also I’m looking at a few local boutiques. More news soon!
