Etsy Shop Update



Hello Friends,  I'm just popping in today with an APB for the knitters:  I'm updating my Sophie's Toes Sock Yarn etsy shop tonight with a big load of summery yarn, and if you buy 3 skeins, you can get free shipping!  Just use coupon code JUNE2013 when you check out.  Stock up now for those wonderful relaxing days of knitting by the pool/lake/beach while watching your kids/grandkids/pets, and sipping your iced tea/iced coffee/gin and tonic.

The update is tonight, June 11th at 8pm Central time, and the coupon is good through next Tuesday, June 18th.  After that, I'll be closing down the shop for a few days while I head up to the Lake County Fairgrounds for the Midwest Fiber and Folk Festival.  

Hope to see some of you there!

In other knitting related news:  I forgot to tell you a couple of months ago that a very nice lady and talented knitting designer Robin Hunter interviewed me on her blog.  If you would like to read a little more about the yarny business, check it out here!

And lastly, Robin launched a new design using 2 skeins of Sophie's Toes.  It's here!

Happy Last-Day-Of-School!



It's the last day of school!  Happy Summer!  Here's a beach tote that I made for one of our favorite teachers.  I took a bunch of photos while making the tote so I'll be back next week with a new tote tute!

Meanwhile, I'm taking the kids on a road trip to Grandma's today.  Were going to spend the rest of the week eating strawberries from her garden.  I might actually sit down and knit something. xo
