Canadian & International customers

I received conflicting information from the post office in regards to the kind of envelope one can use for Priority International Flat Rate mailing. I have decided to use First Class International for all Canadian and International purchase starting today. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Apology

I've been busy spinning more yarn to add to the store. After a long weekend and catching up on chores, I've got the sniffles. I'm on the Tour de Fleece so I have pictures to share. New yarns are dried and pictures of them will be uploaded soon. Hopefully tomorrow. Thanks.

Latest Handspun Yarn Added To Etsy

I've finished spinning the Forest Afternoon batt from Miss Babs. Iris is still not finished and on one of the other bobbin is a superwash Merino/Seacell blend from Dianne of Creatively Dyed Yarn.

I'm not spinning as much as I'm helping M1 bead. She wants to be a vendor this fall at her school's craft fair. I've been crimping wires on earrings for her. Unfortunately or fortunately, we're out of supplies at the moment.

Have a good and safe Independence Day.

Thank you to my customers who participated in the Birthday Celebration Sale for M1 and also for wishing her a Happy Birthday. Here's a sneak peek of some yarns that are drying .
