–All necessary apologies to Eddie Rabbitt, but the blueberry bushes and I prefer a rainy day and today I’ve been getting my wish. Rainy days mean I don’t have to feel quite so guilty for not being outside building fences, or mowing lawns, or cutting firewood, or making that new hay shed. I can stay in and spin, sew, embroider…(notice that cleaning the house is not on that list?). The boys don’t seem to mind it either, since it means the pastures grow up almost as fast as they can eat them down.
Today I’m hard at work designing a new project–the ultimate in handcrafted knitter’s kits. This kit will feature a quilted, embroidered mini-tote with pockets for needles and notions, a skein of handspun yarn featuring the Boys of Studio E, a pair of handcrafted wooden knitting needles, and an original pattern for a hat, neckwarmer, or other one skein item. Pre-orders and custom orders welcome!
