This weeks fiber updates

So it seems I have been a day behind all week this week. But better late than never.

I have been a busy busy momma bear all week. I finished two little sweaters and started a third (impressive with all the help my little Helper give me, *wink*). Bear is absolutely in love with these sweaters! I couldn't get the first one off of her for 2 whole days. Brother took it off of her at one point and she grabbed it up and pulled it back on (this is the first time she has dressed herself!) Then we had gotten back from the store and I tried to take it off again, she actually screamed at me and slapped my hands away. Oh it is special!I only got it off her finally because she had spilled all down the front of it and it felt icky.

Then I finished the second sweater, peppermint candy ice cream pink, and I was busy trying to sew on the buttons, she came up to me and started having a tug of war trying to take it from me. Her special sweater was icky and this one was done now so she wanted it! I had to put it away to finish after she fell asleep, then I had to hide it, *giggles*. I made the little pink sweater with intentions to sell it, here is hoping she lets me! She might not be willing to part with it, *giggles*.

I am polishing up the pattern to these little sweaters and then I will be offering the pattern in my shop. It is an easy, quick weekend knit (less time if you have less help than I do). These cute little slouchy sweaters must be extra comfy as the wee one her self extra endorses them! As I said I just couldn't get her back out of it. I am really thinking these will make perfect gifts for the little loves of your life.

I have started and frogged a hat for my hunny at least a half dozen times. Seems I just can't find a color pattern that satisfies me.

This coming week I have on my table, plans for more little sweaters, ideas for holiday sachets, and Yule presents for my loved ones. Bear needs more sweaters for sure and I hope to split the ones I make between her and the shop (if she will let me), brother and daddy both really need hats! Brother has been freezing working out in the cold and rain, so he has been bumped to hat priority. He has picked out two great hat patterns, one is a beautiful cable I just can't wait to work up. I am super excited. Then I have some Hanukkah bracelets to make, to fill my holiday gift list. I also have plans for little fingerless gloves, I have some lace ones floating in my brain. Now I just need two more of me to get everything done!  (Would three of me be enough to play with bear and keep her busy and get my stuff done?)

Finally, I would like to make a little shop announcement. Black Friday (Nov 25) happens to be my shops 2 month anniversary. In honor I will be offering special bonuses with every purchase through the weekend. That's right! Every purchases I receive between 12:30 am, Friday Nov 25 through 11:30 pm, Monday Nov 28 (Pacific standard time) will receive an extra bonus gift. This means if you order a pattern from me during this time you will receive a a free bonus pattern with your purchase, and those of you who place orders for physical items will get a special gift stuck in with your order when I ship it out to you. I also have plans for other special weekend offers, be on the look out for details this coming week.

So remember boys and girls, keep checking back with me here, on my Facebook page and in my shop over the next week to stay on top of all the latest and to keep appraised of my special offers.
