Extra, Extra: read all about it!

Hot off the presses here folks. It's been ages since I updated my blog. I admit it.. facebook has sucked me in like a vortex. If you haven't fanned our page yet, please do. I announce random sales all the time.

At this moment, we have a couple of things to announce. Our customs list is hammered away. We are down to 2 orders remaining. Seems like nothing to me, being as earlier this week there were lots more to get done.

Secondly, TYG has a new product out called Dippin' Duds. The brain behind the idea is Cait from Little Hands Little Feet. What a great lady she is.. and a wonderful friend. I got the first pair I dyed from her on Tuesday this week and dyed them Friday morning. Gosh was it ever fun. I do need a larger pot though. I discovered my husband had used our stock pot for something else and I could no longer find it. It has since materialized back in our kitchen.. and shockingly.. it's clean. Wow. I wish more of our pots and pans would disappear and come back cleaner than the last I saw it. HA! Anyway, expect these to hit virtual shelves this spring. I love pairing with Cait for this sort of collab. Her knitting is absolutely flawless.. if I had to use 1 knitter for the rest of the time I diapered my kids.. it would be her. Fluid short rows, very neatly knit gussets.. everything down to the littlest detail is perfection! I like that.. I am a perfectionist too, so it's a trait I admire!

OH! and before I close this out.. I am FINALLY getting into wrap dyeing. I know, I know.. I've been promising to dye stuff since like November last year. Well, I'm finally able to do it. Pricing starts at $50 for anything 3.6 and shorter. Please contact me for details. I am able to do cellulose fibers as well as protein (wool). For right now I am just doing dip dyeing.. I will get into it more. Once I have a bit more business coming in I will begin purchasing wraps and dyeing them for my store. Keep your eyes peeled!

I do think this is all.. I am going to start doing some contests soon.. so like I said, find us on facebook and stalk for updates.
