_____________
We have been quite diligent: finishing custom woven throws, dyeing new colors in many of our yarns including lots of indigo, knitting new samples, ordering new booth lights, spiffing up our box truck Tinkerbell and just generally getting ready for wool season. We hope to see you at one or all of these in-person wooly events.
