NEW FREE PATTERN! The Bowtie Sleep Mask is available for your... sleep mask wearing pleasure. I'm going through a can't-sleep-unless-it's-dark-and-quiet phase for some reason, which led to the invention of this pattern. It's 1x1 ribbed so it's nice and thick, and the yarn is really soft. Gedifra TOP soft, in fact.


NEW YARN FOR SALE: The Kirk Bear yarn set is available over in the store. Get it while it's hot, folks.


NEW WORK IN PROGRESS: The Potter Puppet Pals finger puppets are coming along nicely. Pre-felting, they look awfully stupid, but I'm hoping they'll turn out ok. Come to think of it, my one-armed, post-felting Voldemort prototype looks stupid as well, but I have made some pattern modifications since then. Check him out, and Ron & Hermione too:


And check out my loot from the White Rock Weaving Center! I got all these crazy new fibers I've never worked with before:

I will most certainly be going back there next time I need to stock up on awesomely soft and affordable fibers. I have never felt anything as soft as baby camel fur. (On the way home from buying it, I theorized that if I drove past a sign for a "Who has the weirdest stuff in their car" contest, I could pull over and blow the competition away with my bag of baby camel fur.)
