A Life of Colour: Progress is good.

Where to start, where to start? LOL First off, my website is back! I managed to figure out who was actually holding my domain, renewed it with them and voila, back came my website. Such a relief that has made me super happy! I feel like I can get back to normal activities again. And while my site was offline I did some brainstorming and now I'm working behind the scenes to make some improvements not only to my shopping cart but also to the way I am doing business. All will be revealed in the coming weeks and when I have my store re-stocked, it's time for a celebratory sale! I expect that to happen in the next little while so stay tuned! If you don't have an account with the store nor have signed up for the newsletter, please do so as I'll be announcing the sale by newsletter. You won't want to miss it - I am planning on stocking the store with quite a few yarns! Yay new shopping cart and yay new yarns!

I've been spinning! This time around I'm spinning a new fibre to me called Rambouillet. It's wonderful! It's got a slightly longer staple than merino so it's a bit easier to manage and stepping up to a faster whorl on my spinning wheel has meant producing some really lovely thin singles. I'm so pleased! I'm also delighted I can manage the faster spinning speed and combine that with a finer single since this is the first time I've actually moved onto another whorl...it's very exciting!

I also finished my test knit sock (rav link)! The colourway knit up just as I had hoped. A slightly mottled effect but still a semi-solid. This is a technique I plan to use more often! Oh, and the Serenity Sock yarn? Divine to knit with! I love it. It's my first time knitting with it but the cashmere content, wow, softness.
