What have I been up to? Although I am currently suffering from what I can only imagine is terrible allergies...I have gotten a number of things done in the past couple of days:
These are my new colorways from left to right: "Parade," Irish Spring (LOVIN' IT!), "Praying Mantis," and "Field of Violets." I dyed up two of the skeins on the left, because I think they might be the most popular. I'm doing some swapping with a blog friend, and she gets first dibs. After she's done picking, I'll put them up in my shop. She picked "Praying Mantis," so I just put the rest into the shop. Here is what I bought today. See all of those books? Less than 8 bucks, people. That's a whole lot of bang for your buck, huh? Get this... most of the books are 14 each, except for the Christie book. It's like me only paying for that book and getting all of those others free!
This ought to interest you. I'm basically a library. Look really closely at the shelves...they are triple stacked. Yeah, I know. Sick. Everyone has their quarks though. A lot of the middle case's bottom shelves are thriftstore finds though. Kind of. Joe's parents got a puppy! Squee!!! Her name, unfortunately is "Zada"...whatever the frick that means. Apparently, she is the "daughter of Sasquatch" (the Maliszewski men have a particular sense of humor). They adopted her at a shelter about a week ago. She's so cute. Can't they stay like that forever??
I have "swap envy". Those are some really great skeins of yarn. I love the far right and the far left. You book self is not bad compared to mine. Mine sit on the shelf with the bottoms showing stack to the top. You have to pull out a whole stack to read the titles. I enjoyed that Agatha Cristie.
ReplyDeleteI also have swap envy.....those are great skeins! Can't wait to see the Dracula colour.
ReplyDeleteThat Dress Lodger book is awesome I read it a couple years ago
ReplyDeleteLovely yarn! I need to get in on some of these themed clubs!
ReplyDeleteCute pup!
I almost bought Memory Keepers Daughter last night. Decided to buy it once I read something I have in my pile first. Heard it's good.
