but I can’t! I have to show you a secret project I have been working on!

The talented Glenna of “knitting to stay sane” fame has designed these amazing Stockings for The Sweet Sheep in the Wizard of Oz theme. These are the “Yellow Brick Road” Stockings, the second of three in the series and will be available for pre order in the shop shortly!

More progress and information coming in the next few weeks….really, I was supposed to wait…can you blame me for spilling the beans!! It’s pretty wicked don’t you think? ;D

Beautiful new Pigeonroof Spinning Tops!

One of the recent Funky Carolina fibers that came into the shop really caught my attention. I love Carrie’s colours…her combinations are always classy and fun. So when I saw “Fo Shizzle” I knew I had to spin up a braid!

October and November are fingerless glove time and I needed some mindless knitting so I settled on Toast.

I set to spinning this

Into this!

I was so happy with the yarn and it was the right weight so I set of knitting right away. I love to knit on DPN’s (yes I know you think I’m crazy) So I worked the pattern in the round and left the thumb off but knit the thumb hole…just for a bit of versatility. My first pair of toasts have a thumb, so now I have both.

We are expecting some more Funky Carolina fibers in a bit..I will keep you updated. However, I did just have a beautiful box of Pigeonroof studios BFL hit my porch and will be uploading those pretties later in the evening!

I have decided to take part in Pay it forward this year. For a long time I have needed to do something nice for someone and Barbara brought it to my attention and I think it is just the thing for me.
Over the next 365 days I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment wanting to participate. The catch is that you then have to pay it forward to 3 people of your own…and so goes the handmade gifting! Spread the love!

This beautiful fall has left me incredibly inspired. My inspiration comes from many different places, but of late it has been a CD that I picked up having heard one song that just totally re-ignited my love for music and sparked my creativity.

The latest Billy Talent CD. While most of you will probably not be familiar with this band they have become one of my favorites. This CD is hard rock..which tends to be my core love of music and whether or not it is yours it has greatly inspired me with lyrics and colours to go with them.

With this kind of inspiration and creativity I am excited to introduce to you the first of “The Talent Collection.”
