I just got the notice about it today so it's fresh in my mind. You should totally apply with your awesome yarn-ables. http://www.bust.com/craftacular/spring.fling.apply.html Hey - I read this magazine called Bust and they’re having a spring “Craftacular” in Brooklyn next month.

It would still be good to make some kind of display, though... Oh, and I want some of your feltable yarn! I've been on a huge felting kick lately.

It will look mottled, but still very pretty. Just an FYI to people who like felting things...I just got an order of a nice weight of feltable yarn that I'm dyeing up, and I'll be making a felted pattern/yarn kit for sale in my shop at some point soon. :) Yes.

See, you would have picked it up and thought, "Oh, fingering weight; won't felt very sturdy." I know nothing!!!! They are still pretty, though. :D As for not recognizing your own yarn, that is kind of funny. But you did it so long ago! So, I will double up on this and get a variegated color instead of stripes, yes? Feel free to laugh at me!

I was laughing at myself, because I am incapable of recognizing my own work. Also, because I'm glad that my handspun didn't felt flimsily (word?)! Yeah, if you had held that yarn double, it would have been a just a touch thicker than worsted, perfect for felting. That yarn was the undyed Bare yarn from Knitpicks from a while back...they've changed the base yarn and the new stuff isn't nearly as nice as that old stuff. I wasn’t laughing at you, dork.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, I guess), for now you will have to purchase them through Susie's soon-to-open store in NJ. Maybe at some point I'll do the etsy thing, though. Heh.

Nothing, obviously. I think if I doubled it, it would be okay. How about the other yarn? maddie - that's so nice. :) Heh, what do I know? Nothing, obviously.
