Okay , Ye ol' followers of iYarn Blogspot:

iYarn.webs.com has been frozen for what ever reason, so I will be posting here for now...maybe Ill just forget about the website thing for awhile and just blog about everything going on at iYarn...might be easier?  I spent the last year building it up and getting peeps used to that site....it's all over the advertising and biz cards and now it's frozen.  I have spent 2 frustrating weeks trying to contact these people, but guess what?  They can't be reached!  They will take your money for a premium site, but you can't actually talk to them if there is a problem or what the problem even is!!  GRRRRRRR

Knitting faster doesn't ease my frustrations, but I can talk nasty about them and that will make me feel better!

SO.....

Let's knit a sweater!!
Every Tuesday evening in February at 6:30, we will gather at 915 Main and do just that.  If you have never felt brave enough to begin a larger project on your own, this is for you!  No class fees, we will knit this project together, step by step.  Sound fun?  Come in to the shop and pick out your colors and order if necessary, so deadline to enter is Jan. 22 in case we need to order more patterns as well as your color.
We will begin the project by learning about gauge and knit a gauge swatch, change colors and button holes are optional in this one piece sweater.  You will gain so much confidence while knitting this sweater and learn so much!  Sign up now!

Business as usual around here this month in January.  Holiday decorations coming down and trying to transition into just winter.
Resolutions in place , which are just to finish my already begun projects, even though I still keep starting them.  I have babies due that need hats or socks, then of course scarf yarn for displays need hooked up.  And once I had to break from the other projects to knit me a hat.
I have a Remix sweater to finish, but at least Im on the sleeves.  A chunky Vest with Sundae, a now discontinued yarn to finish too.  Oh, and I almost forgot about the socks I'm knitting with Jawoll Magic in the , what Im calling tie dye colors.  I almost forgot about them because I haven't worked on them for so long.  They are two at a time toe up socks and I am working on the leg part.....the reason I am taking so long is because I am going to knit until I run out of yarn, so no yarn goes to waste!  umm, and I started a crochet project for a sweater thing.....it hurts me to crochet, but I loved the pattern enough to start it!
Finished!  I finished a long time project of a vest knit from Berroco's Captiva!  Yeah me!
I've just visited with the Euro Yarn's rep and new yarns are coming soon!  Of course I will have to make samples from them......ahhhh, so much yarn so little time!

Did you know iYarn now has #10 crochet thread?   Yup!  If you like to work with that stuff, come on in and take some out for a test spin!

Please help me spread the word!  Please forward this to any interested parties....this is where I will post all my important stuff, since those other people are being difficult!  Thank You!!
Susan
