Surprise Stash SALE
In the immortal words of the depravedDyer Tina, “We will have a lot of yarn for sale.”
Blue Moon is having our annual de-stash in less than two weeks. This is your chance to browse the bounty of the barn and find a colour, make that MANY colours, that are perfect for you. And, yes, Virginia, there will be Mill Ends.
Here are the details:
Saturday, November 20th, 2010
10:00 – 3:00
Scappoose Creek Inn
53758 West Lane Road
Scappoose, OR 97056
(503) 543-2740
www.scappoosecreekinn.com
(Please note, the sale is NOT at the BMFA barn.)
If you’re coming from out of town, you can stay at the lovely Scappoose Creek Inn. I can personally vouch for its loveliness.
We’ll do our best to keep it more peaceful than Boston’s Running of the Brides at Filene’s Basement or Black Friday sales. That said, get there early, because the frenzy begins at 10:00. Cash, checks and credit cards will be accepted.
For those of you who can’t make it to Oregon for the sale, we will have something for you too in the not-so-distant future (think Rare Gems). Stay tuned to this here blog for more info.

You know what I want…
I can’t wait!!! Now I just have to rob a bank so I can afford it!!!!!
That’s right keep enabling. I can resist because I have no money. Have to save something for next year’s club and sock camp. Of course if you don’t want to see me at sock camp…..
Well, there’s so much that I want, but I live in Ontario-in the north-4 hours north of Toronto. I’ll be awaiting further announcements with bated breath. Is it ALL sock yarn or will other yarns be destashed? Just wondering…
Cheers and red wine, Hazel.
Yay for someone else destashing! I’d come if I could! Maybe ill go to my blue moon bins and pick a few out while blindfolded and put them in a bag!
Yes Stephen. I said bins.
I think you should sneak some into the van heading to Pt. Ludlow. I promise it’ll go back empty. I’ll make sure of it.
YES! I’ve been waiting for this!
Damn you. Just when I thought I was gonna be able to uphold my goal of no new sock yarn until Sock Summit…
Any spinning fiber? (I may need it to pad the crib…) Ahem.
WAHOOOOOOOOO!!!
I’ve been waiting with baited breath and now I’m crying into my knitting bag ‘cause I’m scheduled up for that day and can’t come 🙁 . Just as well, I s’pose…still knitting my way through what I got at your de-stash two years ago! (what a fun day that was!!) Sigh.
Wonder if I could make a weekend dash from S.C.?! It would be so worth it!
I can smell the yarn fumes already……!
Be Still my beating heart!!! Wouldn’t you know I’m leaving Oregon just mere hours before this lovely Barn Sale begins….
I’m dreaming of Woobu and smooshy fiber to spin. *cough* Just need to ignore my unspun and unknit stash looking at me in the corner over there.
🙁 Any chance it could be an “online” barn sale for those of us who can’t simply nip down to Portland?
Rare gets rarer fast, too.
It is nice to know about the sale of the barn, but the problem is that I don’t live in the town, or in any nearby place. So is this sale available online too??
I’m saying this with love and humor … is that how you spell Surprse Stepehn?
(also because I’m a little grumpy that I live to far away to go to the destash; and like Alice I am saving for sock camp)
I appreciate your idea here. Definitely it has a good content. Thank you for imparting more of your own thoughts. Good job!
OMG. SWEET! Just booked a Zipcar and CANNOT WAIT! So glad I will have been paid from the custom order I’m working on!

In the ensuing gunbattle, ballistic helmet usually as important as bulletproof vest, or body armor is indispensable.
In order to adapt to the modern high-tech war, bulletproof compound materials in human body and protection of military equipment protection has been widely applied, such as bulletproof vest, ballistic helmet and tanks and planes, ships of protection components.
Ummm! Are you being spammed to death?
What Hazel said!
I especially enjoy the spam about ballistic helmets, body armor, and bulletproof vests. Will those be required to brave the crowd the first 10 minutes that the barn doors open?
I was wondering if someone was going to provide knitting patterns for ballistic helmets, body armour and bullet proof vests. I thought maybe STR heavyweight knit on 1.75 mm. needles might work since I can get ALMOST bulletproof fabric using STR lightweight and 2.00 mm. needles.
Extraordinary gets rarer fast, too. I am glad about your idea here. Definitely it has a good contented. Thank you for imparting more of your own thoughts. Nice job!
This whole thread is probably driving you right round the twist, but I’m checking it several times a day to read what other insanity has appeared. it’s definitely chuckle-worthy.
OMG this is so funny. Usually I don’t find the spamming funny, just a pain in the arse. I have to go in all the time to turn up the filters and delete the offensive little buggers, but this group is hysterical.
Hazel you crack me up.
Always willing to be of service, Tina. Don’t you just love the fact that the Energy Saving Lamp has exactly the same vocabulary and sentence structure as Judy Becker? However, The Ballistic Helmet is my favourite so far. “In the ensuing gun battle…”-those are desperate knitters from the sounds of it. Enjoy Knot Hysteria-a change from spam central.
This sounds like my kind of sale..LOL I am laughing so hard I just spit beer into my keyboard…this is the 2nd one in a month I will have to replace…Crap!
Wish that I could be there..LOL
I got my new wheel today…maybe I can spin some ballistic yarn…Hazel are you up for some knitting? LOL
Tina this is loads of fun…thanks for letting it play out..
I got impatient and bought STR at Twisted PDX. I’ll come anyway. Maybe I can find a/some sheep to shoe kit(s) for my new wheel that supposedly is coming at Christmas. I picked Taos by the way. Thanks Tina for putting up with my Tweet about this! I’m so excited!
What about Nomex fire-resistant yarn?
It exists and is used for fire-resistant socks worn by auto race drivers. The socks I have
seen look liked they are knit at an EXTREMELY fine guage by machines. The yarn used looks like it takes 3 or 4 strands of it to equal STR light. The color seems to be any color you want as long as its white, pretty much.
This is NOT a spam, but a serious post. I suspect that nylon does not take dye so well.
I located so many great stuff in your blog especially its discussion, from the tons of comments on your articles! Keep up the good work people.

I think bullet proof vest is trying to take over from ballistic helmet. Energy saving lamp is becoming repetitive-poor Judy! I’m sure she never meant to be quoted ad nauseum. Happy Monday.
I am so pleased that so great creators are in our world. If I were the queen of the kingdom, I would grant the writer of this article with medal
Well look at this-Stephen’s first official BMFA blog post! And with such great news!!! I will need to try and resist the “something for us, too”, though I doubt I’ll be able to do that! As always, you guys are the best!
I’m getting a headache from being repeated endlessly by the energy saving lamp.
Perhaps the massage cushion could help?
How about getting our own back? Giving them a taste of their own medicine?
“I am so pleased that so great creators are in our world. If I were the queen of the kingdom, I would grant the writer of this article with medal.”
Cheers and red wine, Hazel.
P.S. Was the massage cushion of any help, Judy?
Hazel, “what a nice post,i will keep it on my dashboard”.
Cheers and a nice dark beer!
Judy, you have to be more careful with your spelling(LOL).
“what a nice post,i will keep it on my dashboad”. I have no idea what a dashboad is, but it’s obviously a great receptacle for posts. Perhaps you and I ought to lay off the red wine and the dark beer and switch to coffee.
thanks for the info, I am sure there will be lots to buy for the people that are able to go there.
I found your blog when I was looking for a different sort of information but I was very happy and glad to read through your blog. The information available here is great.
Sigh, if I had a million dollars I would so be there. But, alas, I do not. Maybe someday…
I have a question to all you Rolex afficianados.
Would you rather own the New Submariner Date?
I can’t seem to choose between the two.
Your rolex homage review, advice, suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Holy Spam, Batman! Wow. Ummm, I just wanted to say thanks for the sale guys! It was great, my son and I had a nice morning the two of us… and thanks for letting me take some pics for my blog, here’s the article: http://kusalaknits.blogspot.com/2010/11/blue-moon-fiber-arts-sale-aka-where-i.html

bladeless fan Since new is a fan of reform transformation, from the appearance of it more in terms of fashion sense, more useful features than the more comprehensive fan! !
Characteristics of bladeless fan
bladeless fan biggest difference is that it does not the traditional fans of the “leaves”! Use of non-leaf fan turbo jet engines and vehicles in the technology, through the bottom of the inhaled air suction hole, the ring hidden inside the edge of a wheel to put the air emitting a circular path, eventually form a non- continuous cold air stream. Important is that the air flow generated by the wind than the average fan is more stable. The amount of air it produces the best performance on the market the equivalent of the fan. Because there is no fan film to ‘cut’ the air, you will not feel the impact and excitement. It is through continuous air flow makes you feel cool. The non-leaf fan with variable frequency speed while the size adjustment device, user adjust the speed according to the size of the actual situation, to increase air flow evenly and will not impact on voltage, low energy consumption, energy consumption is half the ordinary fan. Because there is no fan, this fan not only looks cool, but also more secure than traditional fans, while shaking his head, speed control and other functions are also comparable with the latter.

I feel strongly about this and love learning a great deal more on this subject Some things in here I have not thought about before.I would like to thank you for the efforts you have made in writing this post.
