Chip

I was writing quickly last night and forgot to show the wall of Freia Shawl Balls and Yarn Bombs. Minikins are online and I will do these tomorrow?? Yes, question marks because I will try but can’t make a promise.

Lynn and I had fun this morning. Lynn was sweeping so we opened the door to let in some fresh air. It was beautiful outside. We had a small visitor. Chip the chipmunk ran into the store. It took us about 1/2 hour but we got him out the front door. There was no yelling or crying. I wanted to but held back. 

I believe that Stephen West is going to share more details about his MKAL tomorrow. I will put together kits ASAP.

We have new pictures for the Barber Cords. It is much easier to order online now.

Say goodbye to waste yarn and hello to these amazing hollow plastic cords.

The cords are made of silicone and come in a set of three, packaged in a tin box [diameter 68 mm] with logos on top and colour sticker on bottom.

One set contains 1* ~150 cm (60 inch) & 2* ~75 cm (30 inch) cords.

 

Firmly press the tip of the cord onto your needle (~1 cm) and start sliding your knitting on or off the cord and remember to check that your joint is secured all the time.

When your stitches are in place gently remove the cord from the needle by pushing it off with your fingertip or nail, do not pull the cord off.   

Just pop it gently like an expensive champagne cork.

Beth is watching The Amazing Race Canada that we taped last night. I’m sitting at the kitchen table working on the website. Tomorrow is the launch of Rowan Fall/Winter 22/23. There will be books and new colours going live in the morning. 

Terra delivered my planters today. This has replaced one summer planter that wasn’t doing well. 

The other summer planters still look good so these are living in the island for a week or so.

It’s bed time. Tomorrow is going to be busy between Rowan, Freia and Stephen West MKAL kits.
