Sunny Day. Sweeping the Clouds away.

On my way to where the Air Is Sweet.

Can you tell me how to get. How to get to Sesame Street?


Big Bird.



Elmo.



Zoe.



Rosita.



Inspiration courtesy of the fish Blair won at a school fete recently. Doesn't even have a name as far as I know.



More serious shop news tomorrow; two new yarns have arrived; my very own silk laceweight which I love so much you almost can't have any, a light fingering weight 50/50 silk/wool to die (sic) for, plus I'm trialling a new 100% merino sock yarn.

I only have a small number of the sock skeins, there'll be a few more count sockular, but the rest is up in the air. Any suggestions?

What's for lunch mum?



Yarn.

Would you like a closer look?



New sock colours and new laceweights in the knitabulous yarn shop, plus some top-ups for charcoal suit and Jacaranda Avenue. Thanks so much for the support and kind comments - you are all gorgeous. Maybe you deserve new yarn?

(BTW - I'll reserve Sundays for shop update posts - if any - from now on - so if you're not into the promo, you can be assured you won't see it Mondays to Saturdays.)

Roqua anyone?


Hey - there's been an exciting development here at chez knitabulous!

I've put some sock yarn up in my etsy store!

As a sweetener for all the great Australian knitters and crocheters having to pay in the ubiquitous USD - postage to all Australian destinations is free!

It's what I'd call a very soft opening, I have only listed a few colours, but there's plenty more where they came from.



COMING SOON ...


More of the ivy league laceweight - heere be dragones anyone?
More laceweight - dyeing going on this weekend.
Different sock yarn bases - yarn arriving in June.
Pure silk laceweight - yarn arriving in June.
Red Emperor kits - custom dyed and off the shelf colours.

Next post - more finished knitting and a true confession!
