FOs

I figured I should at least post pics of what I have finished so far...







And the reason I haven't had much time to blog...


Well, my computer keeps locking up when I try to upload the picture. Basically I have a 20'x20'x12' hole in my backyard. We're remodeling... again. :)

New and Exciting News

So my big new is... in October I am going to be joining a HyenaCart Collab called "Serenity Tree" with several other ladies. Our first stocking should be somewhere around Oct 1. I am very excited because I think this will be a good opportunity for things to take off a little for me. We will be actively advertising, plus there are some other more established WAHMs there.

Other news, I finished up Em's Shetland Shorty yesterday, though it had a bit of a mishap. I was letting my toddler help me with weaving and trimming ends and he cut the corner of the tie off... there were a few minutes of sheer panic, and a good hour of unstable emotions, but it's all fixed, washed, blocked, and drying.

Oh, other exciting news, I am officially selling Turtle Butts now. I mailed the licensing agreement back to Adorabubble Knits this weekend. Hoorah! It's a neat pattern, very unique and quite adorable. The nice thing is it's something cute you can do for boys too. Most "cute" patterns are girly (her reason for doing this pattern in the first place!).

After the Weekend

Well, I made it home. I was up in Grand Marais for the North Shore Dragon Boat Festival in Grand Marais. It was fun, but our team didn't do so well. Anyway, it created a bit of a pinch to get things done, but I did it! I had a few orders last week that I got off and I'm so proud of myself for it!

While I was gone I made a new drawstring for dd's Turtle Butt (it actually ties now), started one for ds, and plugged away a bit on the Shetland Shorty I'm working on for SIL. So now I've spent all morning on the computer reading about the Ravelympics and figuring out what projects I'm going to make, which means figuring out what I'm making everyone for Christmas. I've also got to work on some web development stuff here. I'm working on my diaper and wool pages on my computer and will wait until they contain most of what they need to before I put them up live. Stay tuned!
