new designs

Here are few pictures of a few of the new designs I have done for Crystal Palace Yarns and you will be able to find the patterns at www.straw.com . This shows some of the different yarns that are or will be available from them. If you can't tell I am having fun playing with new yarns and letting my mind go wild.

The New Shop

Here are the pictures that Cathy wants to see. this is the shop that I opened the two weeks after getting back from Idaho. Talk about a glutton for punishment. I had put opening on hold to go to Idaho and save the day when the other instructor bailed. I was so excited to get a chance to attend let alone teach at the Northwest Regional Spinners Association Retreat. They are a wonderful group of people and I encourage everyone who has a chance to attend go.

More Pics and an Update

This is the sample wrister that was knit in the class I taught in Idaho. This is a twined wrister using Crystal Palace Taos Yarn. The best part of the adventure was the great freinds I made and everyone who took the class got the technique down perfect.
