Hello all!  There will be a shop update tonight at 9pm eastern.  I have a larger than usual quantity of these small wedges and will offer a Priority Mail upgrade option for anyone looking for last minute gifts.

This will be the last update of what has been an amazing year.  I have never had a better job, or more joy at the thought of a new professional year.

Thank you so much for being a part of something that has become more than I dared hope!

Much love,
AB

The shop update is available in preview mode at http://fatsquirrelfibers.bigcartel.com . Items will be made available at 9pm Indianapolis time!

So much love and thanks, AB

Simply Sock Yarn

Hello all,

All is going well at casa del squirrel, but I find that time has gotten away from me this week. I am knitting and spinning and sewing and holidaying away with great joy and hope you are doing, at least some of, the same. I will be back next week with exciting Yarn Harlot and Simply Sock Yarn tales and look forward to talking with you then.

With deep thanks,
Amy Beth

Hello All!

Because I have received several requests for the larger Aran Sweater Bag, I will be offering some as a pre-order in the shop this evening at 9pm eastern.  (They are currently available for viewing in the preview mode.)

The December 6th update will feature the same fabric in the Large Wedge and Sweater size bags, but I wanted to get a better understanding of the demand for this larger size.

There will also be a few “sewn to order” winter novelty bags which should ship out within a week of purchase.

Thank you again for all of your wonderful support. I am thankful every day for the opportunity this community has afforded my family!

Shenanigans of the Future:

The Yarn Harlot is coming to Ft Wayne!  I’ll be attending the Saturday night talk, are you?  If you would like to have dinner with us, check the the Yarn Harlot thread in our Ravelry board for more info.
