I have not had the most productive week...between taking my computer to be fixed and my car to be fixed and putting up with my husband home all day....but...

I do have a few new skeins. What do you think? what's your favorite?

HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY!!

what a week...sales are going sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooowly. BUT I have a performance this weekend in Vermillion. You should come and see me...we'll have corned beef and cabbage and soda bread and potatoes and such....it'll be fun! I can't wait to see people...

I have spun an interesting sort of greeny-blue color that Amanda (my 12 year old) dyed. I'm going to do one more skein and then put it out. Berry Blue is going up for auction very soon. I now have two skeins and they are pretty...Eastery, springy colors.

so check in on my auctions if your interested. we have lots of d&d stuff up too....
