Shop update

OK, Got laptop backed up at PC world, and apparently I get a replacement while mine is being fixed, but I am not going to believe that until I see it. So I have all my incoices and labels and club info and everything, thanks goodness, what a relief I thought I was going crazy!!

So I am going to start updating the shop, because its rather empty, I have to warn you, I am pretty much out of scrumptious lace, I will eek it out over the next couple of updates, but I need to keep a little for woolfest. So there is not going to be alot in the next 4 weeks of that unfortunately, the next lot comes in on the first week of July.

Happy shopping,

Fibre shop update

OK, so I have the mother of all hangovers, its The noblins fault, we were having too much fun!!
No really, we have a lovely evening, Abi, Judy, and I had dinner in my favourite restaurant in the world and took advantage of the free bottle of wine I won as a result of being subscribed to the news letter (I think), and then we went onto shot in the dark for stitch n' bitch, and Um, drank more wine, and kind of knitted but got drunk too, well me and Judy did anyway, I really enjoyed myself, it felt like proper going out.

Today I am struggling to look at the screen, but have updated everything I could find, lol! There is yarn, after the fibres. There is alot of fibres which I completely forgot to put on last week, and some scrumptious lace which is rationed now because I am nearly out of stock and can't get any more till July, :-(.

Anyway, here is my favourite fibres of the week:

Fyberspates_hand_dyed_yarn_new_555 Its nef. I am in love.

So off to Coldharbour mill for some yarny fun and chats, then to a knitting machine guild  event  on Sunday to sell yarn, and then Stash on Monday.  Have a superb weekend folks, hope the sun shines where you are :-)

And thanks Abi for all your help, you are a true star :-)

Oh my goodness, its so Early, its wrong!!!

I woke up at 5.50am, because I was dreaming anxiously about labeling yarn before I go to Peru. I have so many things to finish before I go, that its making me twitchy, so I thought I would get up, make some tea and go through all my flagged emails and get all the little things sorted this morning before I go to Bath for the conclusion of our knitting research meeting. The results have been analysed and now we are meeting to see if there is evidence to apply for lots of money to research it properly, so I suppose really its quite a big day today, especially seeing as I don't know what the results were, gulp.

So just to give you a taster, I have to get in the post on Monday 3 orders that are huge to the UK, Scotland and Canada, gulp, but this is a small proportion of a scrummy order for K1 yarns in Scotland, I am desperate to go and see the new shop.......

Update is still going in the shop, all the pastels are up, its the nice chocolaty colours next, the the scrumptious dk solids which you can see above and to be honest to dye for. Order from the shop have to be purchased by wed morning, or they won't get sent till I get back...... have a lovely weekend, back tomorrow with knitting results and ethics things, and hopefully a full shop, lol.
