That yummy Teal yarn

This week has been full of mid-night knitting, ie: up in the middle of the night, and knitting through to dawn and beyond. Last night me and my needles worked on that yummy petroleum teal yarn which I was telling you about. it's the same yarn which I'm using in the grunge sweaters, http://www.etsy.com/listing/68473334/ivory-cream-asymmetrical-version2

Next project is a cape in the same yarn, but either the charcoal, or a grey mottle. But first it's back to knitting up my orders.

Sadly these little beauties are coming to an end, I have enough yarn to knit one of each, so unless I find some replacement yarn on the net, these will be no more. All gone.

Grunge OCD

I know.. I know... I'm overloading on Grunge, but really the colours of this yarn are so lush it's really hard not to.

This week, I ordered a petrol teal shade OMG it's so gorgeous, but I'm going to fight myself and knit another sweater style/idea that I have, from that shade, hopefully I'll have that sweater ready by next weekend.

but for now I'll just gaze longingly at this cream one, before it heads of to France tomorrow.

decisions decisions.

Following the revamp of my sitting room last spring, I still have one piece of furniture that needs to be replaced. I'm really wanting the pink side table but the cost of that is way out of my budget, and if I was getting that, then I'd go for an eight drawer tall chest in the same style.

So given my budget is quite tiny, I'm thinking of one of these blue beauties, with my sitting room mostly white/ivory, I figured a splash of colour would just fit in nicely.

RED is for LURVE

and you just gotta lurve this red Grunge sweater.

I'm keeping this one for myself, if I don't then goodness knows when I'll get to knit one up for myself.

and with today being Valentines, well what better present could I give myself.

Customer Feedback

Customers are one of most important chains in the link to a successful business, so when I receive a convo from a customer with kind words about my work, and an image they want to share with me of their special occasion which they bought their garment especially for, it puts the biggest smile on my face, and the warmest of glows in my heart.

This lovely lady purchased the firefly shrug http://www.etsy.com/listing/52451202/black-firefly-evening-shrug-1-2-left-in Back in November for an award ceremony of which she was to be awarded a prestigious award for her volunteer work at her local hospital.

I was thrilled she took the time to send me this image.

I'm back

I've just spent the past two - three weeks in the worst pain imaginable - toothache, yes I was struck down with another bite of the menacing pain which literally had me wanting to rip my head off at times. Anyway this is hopefully all behind me now, as I've braved the dentist and the problem is solved. PHEW>>>>>

Whilst searching through my yarn stash last night, I found another bag of this chocolate yarn, this yarn is like that lost sock, it hides, and then unexpectedly out it pops from no where, it's hardly surprising, given I bought about 50 bags of the yarn some years ago, but I'm now pretty sure this is the last batch. So this will certainly be the last chocolate wrap available.
