I had another WONDERFUL show this past weekend. It confirmed my plan – next year I will do only 3 shows. Period. Chautauqua in July, Elmwood in August, and the Weavers’ Guild Holiday Show in November. (Of course both Chautauqua and Elmwood are juried shows so I have to be accepted.)<\/p>\n

This made me feel good. Then I sat down this morning and realized that this means that for these three shows I need to weave 6-7 good scarves or shawls each month. According to my records, I only achieved that 4 of the 8 months this year. That gave me some stress. So I looked at last year’s records, and I exceeded that number 8 out of 12 months, so I know I can do it. I just need to focus more, I guess. Or organize better. Or something.<\/p>\n

I sold almost all my new work, and now I really want to find some more of that yarn I used for the Snow & Ice shawl. Everyone who saw it was impressed. Here’s what it looks like:<\/p>\n

\"cotton<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s a boucle, but then it has the little globs in it, which made the ‘snow’ part of that shawl<\/a>. Anyone know what it’s called and where I can find it? Cotton, please. Do you think it’s like Henry’s Attic’s Queen Anne’s Lace <\/a>yarn?<\/p>\n

Gotta run, but can’t leave without showing you my melon error. Clearly didn’t catch this in time, and now I can’t move it out of the chain link.<\/p>\n
