Hi All,
The response I’m getting to the lastest newsletters is overwhelming. I thank you. If you’re not on the emailing list, go to my website www.ribbonesqueinc.net where you can sign up for it. I get notified and then I can send them to you. They’ve got the dirt on the TNNA meeting in January, the lowdown on the NY Gift Show and plenty of hints as to what’s coming down the pike.
We will be carrying Bergere of France, www.bergerefrance.com and you will be wowed and excited to get your needles going with their patterns and yarns. Their designs are just fabulous. Barbara’s already picked out the one she wants to make, and you can be sure hers will be done way before mine. I expect both yarns and patterns in about 10 days or so. There will be cottons as well as wools. These are solids in some of the most wonderful colors. I can’t wait to get started.
Already in are some of the spring and summer yarns and I just can’t wait to get my needles going on all of them. So like you, I’ll have to pick and choose. I know, I know, I have to finish something, so I can start on the new yarns. One of my favorites is the cultivated silk from Schaefer Yarns, www.schaeferyarns.com. It is sooooooo soft to the touch. I think a loose airy shawl, maybe the one from Runway Knits with the sleeves. Knit it double so you can see the colors. Oh! I’m getting excited just thinking about it.
I better get to work on my zippered sweater, the one where I had to rip out the sleeves, and reknit them. Then, I can start on something new while I finish up my Einstein Coat and the sweater I’m designing. But more about that another time.
