Up, up and away
Friday, December 3, 2010 at 6:01AM That's me, today. Up, up and away to Florida to visit my friends at A Good Yarn in Sarasota.
Note to self: schedule trips to warm climates in the winter more often.
Note to Minnesota: Nine degrees below zero this morning? Really? On December 3rd? Really?
I'll be hosting a workshop tomorrow (Saturday) from 1-4 at A Good Yarn, with a trunk show to follow from 6-8.
Note to you: You want to come to this.
I'm bringing with me a new colorway exclusive to A Good Yarn called Octopus's Garden.
I love it.
It's vibrant and exciting and speckly and...
...and yummy.
Some of Octopus's Garden has already arrived at the shop, and I'm bringing Adorn Sock, Springvale Sock, and Springvale Bulky with me. (Oh my. Octopus's Garden on Springvale Bulky. I had a hard time sending it with Mr. FedEx Man. I wanted to keep it for me.)
As of this writing, there are a couple of spots left in the workshop, and plenty of space for everyone at the trunk show.
But I didn't just bring Octopus's Garden. There's a plethora of one of a kind colorways, with names like Later, Gator.
Little Pink Houses.
She Sells Seashells.
Liquid Sunshine.
If you can't make it to the trunk show because you live in, say, Norway, you can still get our exclusive colorways directly from A Good Yarn -- they are happy to do mail order, and even have an online cart set up here.
If you have any questions, A Good Yarn is a friendly store. You can contact them via email or phone, and they can send you whatever you like!
Wish me (and my luggage) luck as I make three plane connections today.
Note to self: talk to airlines about scheduling direct flights from Duluth to Sarasota...
See you tomorrow at A Good Yarn!
