Exotic tops and new clubs !


Another busy week: heaps of dyeing of the feb clubs and updates and some rare sheep breeds. Safe to say I haven’t left the dye room and the studio, except to do some bunny grooming and water the veggie patch. I am very happy to announce that the February clubs will be all ready to ship early next week. Yippee!!!!  Apart from working loads and loads I have not really done anything else. Well I am not counting listening to audiobooks while doing my dyeing and blending or trying to keep up with the world news that is both terrifying and totally hilarious at times, resembling to be more like a surreal tv show than anything else. Terrifying, because there are lives and real people at stake; if only the politicians were aware of that while playing their power games.


There are so many things still left to do to get back on track after  I was so sick last month but  I have to be careful not to give myself an anxiety attack..lol..hey, there are only so many hours in the day and night. It is a bit of a relief that I am slowly but surely getting better and catching up on all the custom orders and my dye schedule. I had a huge amount of plans that still are way down the list though, like organizing my website. Yes, it is still on the cards for 2017…fingers crossed ! lol

For this week I have something special planned and super soft too: Camelbunny silk tops! This blend is so super soft and silky ! Wonderful to spin and work with !

Also, the new club sign ups are here! There are spots available in the Fibre, batt and sock yarn club starting up again in April. Don't wait too long to sign up: there are limited spots available and you defenitely do not want to miss out on receiving a surprise every month for three months !

All the information on how to order are to be found on the bottom of this blog entry.

Have a wonderful weekend !!!
