Almost Friday....

Ugh...I love having a few days off in a row...but it makes the next week rough...and I was off yesterday too! Hubby is fine, in a little pain (psst..men are wimps...at least my man is!!) This was minor surgery for a trigger thumb..you'd have thought....well..it was nothing compared to what happened in December...well what can you say! (hahaha! a lot, but I must behave, as he doesn't make fun of my yarn and other fiber..um...enhancements!)

Speaking of which, I received these yummy fab's of Amy Butler's at a pretty good price thanks to a tip from Knitpastis, a fellow AB fabric fan.

I'm sure they will turn into many totes, a girl can't have too many can she?

Progress is being made on the first ankle sock. Cascade fixation in Desert Sand and you can see the color I chose for the next pair! I see many of these in my future as they are perfect for here in hot, humid, muggy, miserable NC. Once I get the pattern perfected for my feet...they'll get done in no time!

Lastly...see this, 1 lb of Kona Superwash in fingering weight! My emergency sock yarn arrived from NH in 2 DAYS!!!! As I was so worried about the previously dyed yarns and was not going to send either one...well I have decided... my pal is getting the merino/tencel blend. Not as dark as I wanted but sooo very soft, I can't resist sending her them. I ordered these skeins fromCatnip Yarns! Amazing service! I emailed my angst late Monday nite, and after a few emails and payment on Tuesday, it was shipped the same day. There may be a tiny weeney bit of dyeing this weekend..then again..thinking of the winding and weighing involved, I may take some time off LOL! Besides, my roots are calling me...dye me not your yarn!!!

My hats off to all of those who do this themselves as a home business either full-time or part-time! That means you Heather and Dani as my top two I purchase from. All those skeins you both produce..I don't know how you do it..but very glad that you do!

Happy Friday everyone! :)
