flipping the switch

Now that time has arrived for me to go back to work full-ish time, I'm feeling groggy and out-of-the-loop.  Ig is off the waiting list and will start the toddler program at Ship. U's child care center in a couple of weeks, and I'll have three days a week to spend in the studio and over the stove, dyeing, carding,  occasionally spinning, and freshening up my website.   I'm going to miss my little one, but I'm anxious for her to have experiences with kids her own age. 

The new products I've been meaning to add for over 6 months are finally in the works:
-un-dyed wool, cellulose, and other blended tops
-hand painted and kettle-dyed tops
-a collaborative line of hand-dyed yarns, debuting late Spring.  (!!! I haven't dyed yarns for years, but this was one of my first fibery fascinations).

A small batch of novelty batts will be added this weekend, and a larger more exciting update will be unrolled in early February.

New year, new fiber :)

After a long refreshing winter break, I'm back in the studio (late at night when the little green bean tosser is sleeping off her antics).

I'll announce a shop update later this week, after I get everything photographed.

Also, January HobbledeCLUBS will be shipped this weekend! Hooray!
