Have you ever tried wet felting with roving? I sure hadn’t, I’m only just venturing out into the world of felted art, and I’m having a blast. My latest foray into felting introduced me to Felt Evolution and their awesome felting kits. I tried out the felted picture kit as my intro into wet felting art.
This summer I purchased a set of Denise2Go interchangable Tunisian hooks – and I paid extra for the pink roll case to give money to Cast Off Chemo! I’ve had the chance to try them out on a few projects, most notably my Glitter and Gleam Super Scarf, and I’ve really enjoyed using them. Now you can pick up your own Denise hooks or needles for 15% off!!! Just pop on over to the Denise site and use code
By now you all know how much I love my Cricut Explore Air (you can read all about it and what it does HERE). Well, I am now the proud owner of a Cricut Explore Air 2!! It’s so awesome, and a very pretty mint green and silver.
The felting kit used in this review was provided by Going Gnome for an honest review. The opinions in this review are those of Jessie Rayot.
This summer I discovered Going Gnome felting kits. I’ve never tried needle felting before, and I thought it would be fun to give it a go. Plus the ladies at the booth were just so much fun, and they assured me that even someone who had never tried before could make the mushroom kit. They were also kind enough to give me an already made mini gnome to pose in the photographs. He’s a bit cheeky, and I couldn’t get him to stay in one place for all the pictures.
Tomorrow is I Love Yarn Day and I have a lovely yarnie project to share with all of you yarn lovers!
FiberWild has a new kit using Wonderland Yarns Cheshire Cat – the Berry Tart Shawlette designed by Amy Loberg. And they carry Cheshire Cat in almost 20 colors, so you can make this pattern in your favorite color!
This summer I had the pleasure of reading The Secret Stitch by C.Jane Reid. When I first picked it up I was a little worried as it is “fiber fiction” and sometimes books written around hobbies aren’t the greatest. I was very happy to discover that C. Jane Reid is really wonderful author!

The book is centered around Ailee, a Scots-Irish newly-wed who is immigrating to America with the husband she barely knows. There is some mystery around

Look at what’s available at Premeir Yarns now and at A.C. Moore stores starting this weekend! Premier Sweet Rolls are awesome long stripe yarn cakes!! They are 100% Acrylic, so they wash great. I was lucky enough to get my hands on 2 cakes of these lovelies ahead of the release so I could share my thoughts with you. I made a complete scarf with just one cake. (keep reading to the end of this post for a surprise)
At the TNNA trade show this summer I had the pleasure of seeing some of the newest yarns from Willow Yarns. They were all lovely, but Quiver was my favorite!
