Day 1 of the Gnumpkin and Gnettle MKAL hosted by @imagined_landscapes

Gnomes make me so happy and I've decided to try and make both Gnumpkin and Gnettle this month! Wish me luck.

I still have a couple of kits left if you need yarn and you're local and want to pick up!

This week has not really gone according to plan. We discovered Tuesday morning that the heavy rains on Monday caused water to get into our garage/my dye space. As you can see in the photo... everything is topsy turvy right now as we try to dry everything out. This has meant that my plans for getting back to the dye pots this week have been put on hold.

If you ordered at Knit City, it may be a little bit longer to get your orders out... maybe 4 weeks instead of 3! I'm so sorry for the inconvenience, and please let me know if you have any concerns.

Thank you for your patience!

Today we celebrate 19 years married and I'm so grateful for the life we have together. This was us just before we went out for dinner to our favourite local restaurant and enjoyed a delicious meal together. Here's to another 19 years!

I wish I'd had more time to shop at Knit City this year but I barely left my booth! This is my tiny haul...

A beautiful doll from @bamboletta I've coveted these dolls for probably the last 15 years and this year I decided to get one just for me.

A super cool ghostie from @mazahouse_pottery

And of course, a wee butt monster from @perchingclayart

Thank you to all the other vendors at this amazing show that create the fabric of a vibrant community.

Beyond grateful!

Knit City prep is in full swing... we reskein all our yarn.... we do this to make sure that the skeins you purchase are as tangle free as possible.... but it takes time. So this is my day today. Waiting for skeins to reskein. Tie them off, twist and repeat.

Super excited to share something special that we are bringing with us to Knit City this year. My oldest daughter and her friend have been making these beautiful silk earrings and stitch markers. They are using our 100% Tussah Silk Divine Lace base to create the skeins. It has been a delight to watch them make these and we will have them for sale at the show this weekend! Will I see you there?

If you're a newsletter subscriber, you'll have received the news that we discontinued a whole lot of colours recently... 44 to be precise. They are now on sale 25% off on our website, no code needed. Just choose a base, find the colours that are on sale and the discount is automatically applied. We've discontinued our Mohair Mist base as well, so all you Weavers out there, now is the time to stock up for weaving mohair blankets!

We've also slashed Plush Lux to 40% off in order to clear it out!

Happy Friday!

To all my amazing US customers, we have made the tough decision to temporarily suspend shipping to the US. I thought I'd figured out a shipping system and then that fell through when I went to ship a package this morning... so more research is being done and hopefully we'll figure something out soon.

So sorry for any inconvenience.

Grateful to my lovely friend @lisanngurney, who I'm visiting right now, for helping me sort through colours today. I've made a big list of colours that I'll be discontinuing once I get home. Expect to see an update to our clearance section in the next couple of weeks, and then it'll be time to develop the new coloura I need to fill in the gaps! It's going to be a fun project!
