Looking ahead...



Thank you to all of you for visiting my "yarn candy shop"!

A lot of you have been asking me if I will bring certain colors back. This is what I have decided to do. I will put a poll on the blog, every couple of months so that you may tell me which colorways you would like to see coming back for a special encore.

Today, I will be packing all your orders, and walking ;) them to the post office! No snow, but definitely bitterly cold. Wrinkles get literally frozen! Who needs Botox!

Then, with a warm cup of coffee, I am going to start thinking about the new colorways for next Sunday. I have an idea... Valentine's Day is coming up, and I feel that a little romance with a French Twist, a la Fragonard, would be so much fun!Just think what a colorway with a name like Stolen Kiss would be like!

Hi SockPixie,

I just joined New England Textile Arts too, which is where I found your name. Your sock yarn looks too delicious! I might succumb.

SockPixie-

I found your blog through a Craftzine link. Amazing that you would mention Fragonard. Not many people know of him and he is by far my favorite painter. I have a soft spot for The Swing, particularly that little cherub that is shushing the viewer! I love it, so much thought, so playful, what a wonderful painter. Stolen Kiss would surely be a wonderful Valentine's Day colorway!

Fragonard was an amazing painter. I love his celebration of life. The Swing is also one of my favorites.
Well,it's off to work, creating my new colorways...
