If you remember, a while back I shared a review of Unicorn Fibre Wash and Fibre Rinse. Well, they have another product that I’ve been wanting to review for a while, and I finally have: Power Scour! Power Scour is an awesome stain remover/fibre renewer.
Have you heard of Bijou Basin Ranch? They are a small family owned and operated yak ranch in the Colorado outback, and they use those yak to create awesome yarn!
Did you know that the CGOA is hosting a CAL throughout the spring? It’s 8 parts, and each part runs for 2 weeks. They just started the second part, but I’m still on the first. No worries about jumping in late, it doesn’t really take 2 weeks for each part, I’ve just been super busy. You can read

I may have an addiction to Crystal Palace Yarns. The colors are breathtaking and the quality of the yarn is always wonderful. Plus, they’re fun. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting a few of the ladies behind this yarn, and they are all kind and just a bundle of good times! High quality, beautiful yarn from great people? Yes, please!! Of course, the facts that I enjoy working with Crystal Palace yarn and that you always love the patterns I make with them are also pretty important to me. So, I’ve put together a round up of my patterns I have created with Crystal Palace yarn. There are some links at the end for purchasing the yarn as well. Enjoy!!
Crystal Palace is also one of our generous sponsors for Yarn and Wine 2016!
Here are the names and links of each pattern.
Knitter’s Pride has a wide selection of knitting needles and crochet hooks of all styles and sizes. If you need it, they have it, and they most likely have several options for it! Knitter’s Pride is one of our generous sponsors for Yarn and Wine 2016. One of their contributions is 30 sets of various knitting needles to use at the tasting tables. This means over the last few months I’ve been able to try out even more of their needles then I had in the past.
Nineteen years ago Diana McKay & Leslie Taylor had young children at home and wanted interesting jobs with very flexible hours; so they started hand dyeing beautiful high quality wools in their kitchens. They grew, moved into a dye studio, and hired a wonderful staff. They now carry 21 yarns in 60+ luscious colors that have been in inspired by the mountains, rivers and woodlands that surround them.
This past January I had the pleasure of meeting Retomantic Fripperies at the winter TNNA trade show. I was immediately enamored! The vintage charm in everything they do is just lovely!
