September Yarn Episode 3: It Is What It Is ;)



FO: Flying North Socks in Nomatic Yarn (Spark).

WIPs: Flying North Socks in Knit Picks Glimmer that I dyed up here.
The Lush Cardigan by Tin Can Knits in Lanaloft Sport (that I should have said- it fluffs up amazingly after a wash!) in Manor Grey.

The Secret Knit is a Black Yarn (Belle) by Red Riding Hood Yarn.

Project bags by Deb at Fondant Fibre and Zippy Wippies.

Taos New Mexico Yarn shops:
Moxie (Where I bought the knitting needles)
Mooncat Fiber (where I found the lovely yarn by so many local (NM) Indie Dyers) Loved this shop! She has a group on Rav as well.

The farm we will visit next time and I think you might like if you are in the area is the Rio Fernando Farm-

"In this tranquil mountain setting, regal llamas, curious pygora (cashmere) goats, and fluffy angora rabbits are your hosts.  Shelly Loveless knows her fiber, and spins and knits beautiful blends of yarn and her own creations.  This welcoming farm offers raw fiber, yarn, and garments for sale.  Loveless says of her furry family's calming influence, "You just pet them and you relax."

you can find Shelly Lovelaces info. HERE.

Espanola Valley Fiber Arts Center (What A Treasure) and facebook page. So good!

Yep, think that is all for now~ thanks so much for watching! Happy Mother's Day week!!
