2 July 2008
Check it out! These have been added to the Specials Page and I guarantee they won't last long!

Also appearing -- another batch of Biagio worst weight 100% wool, this time in a dark rich chocolate with a soft blue undercast. It's also on the Specials Page for you because there's only one batch and cannot be repeated.

Into the heat of the summer!!! Have you tried lightweight LACE knitting? It is super for summer knitting, and you get LOADS of yardage on my fingering weight one-pound cones. More colors than you could imagine. Find them all there.

Why Knitivity??
I am proof that THERE
IS LIFE AFTER HURRICANE KATRINA! My dog and I had
to hunker down in New Orleans during and after The Event
(read my
"Katrina Diary" here), and I was a changed person when it
was all said and done.
So what does one do after very fiber of one's being has
been shaken, stirred, folded, spindled, and somewhat mutilated? Why, he
chucks it all, walks away, and begins life on his own terms ... and starts
his own yarn-dyeing business to celebrate whatever new version of liberty
has been wrought by Katrina's devastation. Little funding, little backing,
and pretty fool-hardy, but plenty of moral support and best wishes from
friends and fellow-crafters and artists. And so far it is working! With
YOUR HELP, my story and my success will help others overcome tragedy and
horrific devastation in their own lives.
Thoreau wrote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet
desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation."
After Katrina there was no way I could return
to the resignation of working a "job" (aka, "Journey of
Boredom") simply because that's the way everyone else dies inside.
I refuse to be either quiet OR resigned!
