Shop Update-o-Rama-Rama!
Friday, August 14, 2009 at 5:25PM
Peeps. There's yarn here. Lots of yarn.
The full complement of yarns going up in the Shop can be seen in my flickr stream here.
Today's Shop Update is all about Lollipop BFL Sock. This shiny, sturdy, silky sock yarn is 100% superwash blue faced leicester wool. Each skein is 3.5 oz/100g and 420 yards/384m. Each skein is $23.
Here's a selection of what you can find in the shop:
Wagashi
Pamplemousse
Sugared Violet
Moss Rock
I'll be putting in Meringue Merino sock, Marzipan Merino Sock, and some new colors of Souffle as well! If you see something on flickr that you like that isn't in the shop yet, let me know and I can reserve a skein for you. I have multiple skeins of just about every colorway. I'll get these in the shop as quick as I can over the next couple of days.
Oh, and dudes. I totally forgot to tell you in my Sock Summit post yesterday that Clara Parkes (of Knitter's Review) and Melissa Morgan-Oakes came into my booth on Thursday night. I think I played it cool -- I tried very very hard not to flip the $(@*# out. We chatted, and they were both SOOOOOOOO nice, and very complimentary. And they both bought yarn from me. From ME. Tried (again) not to flip the *#(*@ out. Playing it cool. I hope Clara doesn't mind me mentioning that she recommended my Lollipop BFL yarn to her students. A few of her students came through my booth and told me that. And I tried very very hard not to flip the $(*$&(@*&! out. Playing it cool, folks. Cool.
The whole weekend was like that -- I'd be walking through the convention center, and BAM, there's Stephanie Pearl-McPhee on a walkie-talkie. Or I'd come around the corner of the Marketplace and BAM -- there' ANNA FREAKING ZILBOORG STANDING RIGHT THERE. I said "Hi" to her. That's all I could manage. I so wanted to go up to Stephanie and Tina the whole weekend to thank them for Sock Summit. That's all I wanted to say, and I just kept freezing every time I'd see one of them anywhere nearby. So, I'll just say it now, in my lame little way, in my little blog. Thanks, Stephanie. Thanks, Tina. Thanks ST-2. You guys rock. Sock Summit was the best.

I can't wait to try your yarn. My needles are so ready for that Microbrew...and all those new colors you've added. I may be in trouble.
