Yarn is so delicious, I seriously have an addiction. But when I cannot afford to feed my addiction, I love doing YYMN customs, its like driving a porche without having to pay the payment! HA!
Today I got some yummy yarn in the mail that I cannot wait to knit!
Its Dear Husband's "Aloha Kane" on Organic Gaia Merino Bulky! Its so so so so so soft and squishy, and I cannot wait to stick it on my needles!!
Kathlin you have one lucky boy that will be gettin overalls from this yarn! :)

Teeny Tiny Woolies
This morning I finished off the first pair of woolies for my Grand Opening! They are so tiny and precious!
Knit with Claudia Hand painted yarn. I used a modified version of the "Jungle Gym" pattern, to make them small enough to fit a newborn baby for Coming home from the hospital. I remember when Addison was born, I brought a newborn out fit, preemie outfit, and 0-3mos sized outfit and the only one that fit her was the preemie.. and she was an average sized 7lb baby.
So this set was made with that in mind. I did a 5.5 inseam as well so they are true newborn sized :)
Here's a sneak peek!

I looooooove this pattern!!!
I plan to also become licensed for her Hootie Who Romper, and Owlie Cocoon and Hat in the near future, as I love owl cables and definately want to have the ability to sell those in my store!!
I also bought the Bottomstoppers Foggy Mountain Coveralls pattern.

I plan on in the near future, purchasing some SMSS patterns, because I love their rompers and would love to sell them in my store.

exciting things are in the works
Im so excited to be opening my hyena cart! I am shooting for OCT 1st! There are so many yummy ideas in the works as well, I have some wonderful artists and sewin mamas who will be joining me in my grand opening. We will be doing many collabs, and ive decided on doing it Newborn themed!! Since I will be a newbie to the Hyena Cart world of knitters, I figured what better than to do Newborn stuff!!
Today im going to be casting on some newborn woolies, and im stoaked. I recently discovered my local yarn shop Artistic Fibers in downtown Burlington. I almost had an orgasm walking into this place! HA! But I also discovered a gorgeous collection of hand painted wools that they carry there!! Claudia Hand painted yarns. I will be casting on their "Hawaii" colorway to my needles today! Its gorgeous in person, and super soft and yummy!
DELICIOUS RIGHT?!!!
I also picked up her circus dancer colorway!! This will also be turned into something newborn for my shop :)
Stay tuned for what I create! And dont forget to share my facebook, the more likes... the better!
