Poncho days…
We’re doing some much needed, long over due spring cleaning. Yesterday we pulled out all the samples we’ve ever had, like ever had. Since blue moon was just a twinkle of a dream. As we progressed in this project and uncovered more and more samples I kind felt a little sick. And for very brief moment I was seized with panic, a big fat fear that maybe I was cleverly disguising a hoarding problem in the guise of running a fiber business. Noo… I don’t think so. You need samples to sell yarn and you need yarn to sell yarn and you need …. Nope just running a textile business, that’s what I thought.
That’s right.
We are cleaning out after all.
This is what happens where you have no time right?
That’s what I thought. Phew. Was a bit worried for a minute there.
It’s been great fun to go through all of this. A little knit trip down memory lane. We found some really cool knits that we’ll save and resurrect. We found some knits that I can’t even believe I had the nerve to knit much less sell and they did sell well. So I’m blaming you.
We found every incarnation of scarf imaginable. Crazy amount of scarves, shawls and ponchos. We must have knit samples in every yarn I had at the time.
Remember the ponchos? All those ponchos.
Come on admit it. You know you knit them. They’re probably buried in you closet somewhere.
Time for a rummage through the closet?
Maybe we need to have a poncho day. Can you see it?
We certainly have a knit dress up bin. ohhh a new camp activity.
I also found this piece of loveliness. My first dye,spin,knit job. It’s a seriously soft,cozy angora blend I did from my bunny Willa and I am going to find the perfect button and wear it all next winter around my neck.
