and some dyeing











last night and this morning were spent dyeing some yarn and roving - i am hoping to open an online store in the new year so i am building up stocks - i have 2 weeks off at christmas so i am guessing it will be spent dyeing as well between other things - the problem is i dye it and fall in love with it and don't want to sell it - tell me it get's easier to part with your dye babies?

Wooly Love...




....it appears that it runs in the family, Miss Lilli giving my freshly dyed and dried tops a cuddle :)
it started with just patting and quickly progressed to cuddling - that's my girl

Christmas Crafting and Shopping World

Well the christmas crafting is well underway at our house - 3 gift complete and approx 3 to go.

well the time has come our little town is out of the dark ages and we now have a new shopping centre/mall - my happiest and saddest moment are combined in the fact that we now have a lincraft - happy because we now have some craft selection sad because i wish it was a spotlight :(

G and I are also planning JD's dedication (christening) so i picked up some nice stuff to make invite for that at good prices :)
