A Curious Blog

Everyone, and everything, has a blog nowadays, so I thought my yarn shop should have one too. And here it is!

I've spent this morning making up more beaded stitchmarkers - they're gorgeous - and photographing them. They'll be up on the site tomorrow, hopefully. And I've spent a good portion of the afternoon labelling the yarns and sorting them into boxes. I've finally settled on a way of attaching the label - I'm using pretty ribbons. And I'm tying the big and small sock skeins together with the same ribbon.

I've been knitting up a little evening bag in Gleaming silk. I need to finish the strap, and hunt up ribbons and buttons to complete it. Hopefully I'll make it to the haberdashery and find the right ribbons and buttons, and there'll be a little one-skein bag-kit for sale.

I've also put aside a skein of Floss in Saturn (currently my favourite colour), and I'm planning on knitting up a sideways-ish scallop-ish lace scarf. I *think* I know how it's going to work. If it does behave, the pattern will be going on the site as a free download.
