family emergency…
Unfortunately we are dealing with a death in our family. Over the next several days it may take up to 48 hours to receive a response to emailed inquires. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

new stuff!
Hi, there - just wanted to let folks know there are some new items posted in the shop - Seabreez Lace, Merino Seacell Fingering, Shawl Pins and Merino Laceweights.
Also the Balsam Shawl pattern, knit in fingering weight merino, is now available.
Note - due to a family emergency, any yarn/fibre items currently on order and/or ordered as of today will be shipping (hopefully) next week, by the 14th. My apologies for the delay. Sometimes, things just cannot be avoided.
Thank you.
Happy knitting/spinning!

off to Woodstock this weekend…
No, not that Woodstock. But it’s sure to be a good time, regardless. Woodstock, Ontario is hosting a Fleece Festival this weekend, the first. I can’t imagine a Fleece Festival not being a good time. Hope to see you there!
I’ll be bringing this with me:
… hot off the press, barely dry from blocking, along with as much yarn/fibre as will fit in my Toyota.
The pattern will be available on the website soon.
Have a great weekend!
