Updated Mushaboom Gnomegarden

Posted on March 28, 2010 by Dawn

“We’ll collect the moments one by one

I guess that’s how the future’s done.”

That’s just one of my favorite songs.

I named one of my yarns Mushaboom this go round, in it’s honor.

I just finished a big update at the gnomegarden etsy shop.  Here’s the scoop:

Here is an update that was a long time coming :)   ! go to the ETSY! Please  share it with your fiber loving friends and family!

Look for more frequent updates this Spring with lots of spinning fiber, and luscious yarn.

Many of the yarns in this update look fabulous in combination, thus alleviating the ever present question “well, what would I do with one skein??” :)   If you need more ideas though, there is a fab website of low yardage genius at simple patterns to knit with 1-285 yards of yarn and on Ravelry for  “free knit patterns– 285 yards or less”

Please visit me this Spring and let me know how you are!

Midsummer’s fiber update and storytelling

Posted on June 21, 2009 by Dawn

Super-big-30-batt UPDATE at the old etsy shop!!!!  Please visit and if you are a fiberfiend, buy some!  There are some new lovelies there.

Tell a friend!  I am home from the shop with the kids for the summer you know… I need to make some money on etsy for summer-adventuring!!! :)

I’m only showing you one– you’ll have to go to the shop and look!

Some other weird but true news is that I have been interviewed by spin in public.  You can check out a short sketch about the fiber in my life here.  It was a fun exercise to sit and think about how fiber art and creative endeavors unfold for me… I am usually not so conscious of it. :)   I am excessively thankful to Cindy for asking me to be a part of her magnificent new site.  It is a wonderful resource and inspiration for spinners- new and expert!

Ok.  I am off to the beach for a visit to the family this week.  I’ll be checking in and taking lots of photos…
