  It's been a very busy beginning of the year. It's already February and I am finally able to catch my breath.  
    In mid-January we did the Vogue Live Show in NYC.  It was lots of fun.  Saturday was super crowded and I got to see lots of old customers. It's really neat to see the same customers coming back to my booth year after year. Sunday was more subdued because of the weather, but we were still busy, selling lots of Zealana, Three Irish Girls, Isager yarns and Woolbearers hand dyed.  As I was leaving, I ran into StevenBe and told him that we would be seeing him in a few weeks.  He said that we would have  lots of fun -- and he was right.




Last weekend was the Fire & Ice Festival on Saturday.  The weather was perfect for the festival and our sheep didn't melt until Wednesday!










Sunday, of course, was our annual Superbowl Sunday sale and the beginning of the Stephen and Steven Tour.  We had a luncheon while StevenBe and Stephen West showed us their trunk show.  It was really fun.

Monday we had 2 classes - Modular Magic and Shawl Extravaganza and Tuesday night was New Perspectives on Knitting with S-Squared.  These guys were so inspiring! Thank you so much --- Can't wait for your next visit.

Our Knitters have been working hard on their CustomFit Knits Sweaters.
Janet finished her first one.  Perfect fit!  She used the Cushing Isle pattern and Juniper Moon Moonshine yarn in light grey.

  Meg knit an Aislinn, while she did not use the Custom Fit program to knit this sweater,  the pattern is available in the program.  She did, however, use Woolbearers' Sport Merino.

The next class is scheduled for February 28th & March 7th.


Another finished afghan.  Wendy did a fabulous job with this --- she has now completed a sweater and is well on her way to finishing another one!
