OMG - It's Snowing! (Um, it's December)

Newly listed yesterday! Wishing in Colors Muted Fingerless Mitts. Here's another picture:

Yes, it is indeed snowing here. The roads are bad. The schools are closed. I did go to the gym and worked out with, like, five other people, but I am back now at my favorite time of day. Morning coffee and the computer. Ahhhhhhh.

But this week I am scrambling to get more done. I have the farmers' market on Sunday and I hope that will be a good holiday shopping day. I've got some ideas for stocking stuffers that I am working on. And scarves. And fingerless gloves.

Here is my latest, which made its debut at the market last weekend. I was lucky to be at the computer last Sunday morning when a cancellation came up and a table was available that morning! Last minute, but good!

Nordic Tribal In Black and White I

I have another black and white, version II, and one more in earth tones I dropped of at Indigo Lily that already sold!

Working on more! I need to get more off to Silver Circle Studio and Indigo Lily!

Let The Chenilles Begin!

I just dressed the loom with a striking black and red chenille yarn. The chenille scarves have begun! No pictures yet. However, here are more pictures of a set I finished this week.

Yes, I Am Still Here

Working, working, working! And loving it! The Farmers' Market (September 20) was a great success for me. Great weather, lots of traffic and sales. It was so good, infact, that I never got a chance to leave my booth to go check out all the rest of the fibery goodness at the market!

Buffy was a hit. I thought she would be shy - sometimes she runs to the corner of her cage when I bring new people to meet her. But she just check out her surroundings (hay - check. water - check. food - check.) then sat right down and enjoyed all the attention, pettings, even the dogs who came up to see her.

Just got set up in the booth, now relaxing.

Two week old baby angora bunny a couple of booths down from me. SO CUTE!

This is my latest handwoven scarf, Lost I think it's one of my favorites.

I'm back at the market this Sunday, for Squashtober Fest! And I'm still cranking out more scarves this week for Swift Waters, Indigo Lily, Silver Circle Studio, and my Etsy store. Stay tuned!

A New Venue

I'm now at Silver Circle Studio in Putnam, CT, aka The Quiet Corner! This is a new gallery, open less than a year. It was one of the places Matt and I stopped in while we were out there for the day. I remember being very excited about it and loving the jewelry and handmade books. I'm not sure why I didn't approach Carly about putting anything in there. Maybe I was being too shy (it happens) or I felt I had enough on my plate or I thought I would do it later. I guess all those things went through my mind. I'm a terrible marketer of myself sometimes. Anyway, it was suggested to me by someone I know from the farmers' market that I check it out. Carly said she had heard about me from someone else. I went out there yesterday, talked terms, and left two scarves there. I'm very excited and up for the challenge of providing for a fourth venue.

Now that I've gotten a production plan, that is.

I'm at the farmers' market this Sunday. It is Fiber Twist - fiber demonstrations and fiber animals. I am proud to take my little Buffy, who will be on display in all her fluffy goodness!
