All of a sudden everything around me is yelling out Christmas: all the advertisements, all the shops and tv ads, everything has started shouting Christmas and I have to say.. I am still stuck in Halloween mode..lol I mean, when did it get Christmassy in Mid November?!? I’m not ready!!! And there’s so much to do! I’m hyperventilating just thinking how much needs to be done. Let me sum it up for you : 1. The November clubs were just shipped out and I have to dye the December clubs right away because of Australia Post Xmas shipping  deadlines, which...

The week that I am blending and dyeing the art journey club of the month is always extra, extra busy, because I still somehow have not managed to dye Friday blog updates ahead of time..you know, be ahead of the game…nope, not me…always the chaos bunny, hopping from one thing to another.

Her #boneyardsweetheartshat  is awesome and comes in either DK or fingering weight pattern versions so yeah, I had to. I think all...

What a super hectic week it has been here! Blending, dyeing, a new sock yarn arrival ready to be dyed later, all the October clubs shipped out  and new Halloween fun organised ready to put on show on the shop, plus a short stint at the hospital for me to get my bionic heart sorted out..call it my yearly maintenance to keep my motor beating.
