Thankful Thursday – Fiber Arts Edition
This Thankful Thursday I thought I’d focus on knitting and fiber related things.
3. I’m thankful that Anne taught me how to spin. I’ve moved from a spindle to a wheel but either method gives me the ability to spin one-of-a-kind yarns.
2. I’m thankful the Salt Lake Valley is filled with amazing yarn stores that carry all the yarns I can’t spin.
Blazing Needles
Three Wishes
Wool Cabin
Black Sheep Wool Co.
Unraveled Sheep
1. I’m thankful for all the inspirational knitting books I own. ‘Cause a grrl needs patterns for all that yarn!
Don’t forget to check out Norma’s blog today for all the information on how purchasing my patterns today will benefit the Red Scarf Project. Basically, all the proceeds from sales of my patterns will be donated to the Red Scarf Fund. But you must complete the purchase today and you must put “Red Scarf” in the comment section when you complete the transaction. ETA: Apparently, there is no PayPal comment box if you purchase patterns through Ravelry. So, you do NOT have to put “Red Scarf” in the comment section. All pattern sales from 6:00a.m. today to 6:00 a.m. tomorrow will be donated to the Red Scarf Fund whether there is a comment or not.

On Friday I’ll be participating in the blog tour for the book, It’s In the Bag. Since, I’ll be highlighting a very unique project from the book, I thought I’d take a stab at working up a little sample.
Interesting, huh. Stay tuned. There will be a contest, too!

Score!
I’ve been lusting after the book, Shetland Lace by Gladys Amedro for years. Unfortunately, it was OOP and I only saw one copy for sale in all the time I’ve been searching.
Imagine how my heart raced when I happened to see on the Unicorn website that it was being reprinted! I immediately called my LYS and asked the owner to order a copy for me.
Mine . . . all mine . . .
