In case you’d noticed (or didn’t) there aren’t any stitch markers listed on the shop anymore.

While I’ve been waiting (and continue to wait) for my job to start, Gnomespun has expanded past the bounds of a hobby to an actual business, albeit small. As such, everything’s gone all official now which means all the fun paperwork that comes with being official. Well, it turns out that the stitch markers of everything I buy and sell for the business qualify for a whole raft of extra paperwork. So, since their a very small portion of my retail sales, I’m taking them down to simplify things.

Stitch markers will still be available at the fairs I attend. And I’ll still be including as bonus gifts them with orders over $50 (including shipping). If you make such an order, please feel free to note whether you’d like a crochet or knitting set.

Hope to get some new fiber and yarn up shortly, a couple interesting new things. Stuff’s drying slowly in this insane humidity.

Knitting and crochet stitch markers, and one pair of sock/lace markers! The crochet stitch markers are made on surgical steel kidney earring clasps, so they are perfectly functional as actual earrings. If people are interested in sterling silver hooks, I can also make earrings with those. I haven’t because there’s lots of people who make them, but if people want, I can.

That’s all for now. More blogging blog updates to come.

Two fibers this round, wensleydale and jacob. Next update will have border leicester, finn, and cotswold (at least). Many of the wensleydale was done in double batches, so for once some colorways have more than one braid.

A note that this is the last of my jacob. I don’t know when I’ll get more. Soon hopefully.

Jacob: Garnet Shadows, Emerald Shadows, Amethyst Shadows, Midnight Magic, and Heather and Gorse

Wensleydale: Soft Bismuth, Haying Time, Slate, Across the Sea, Midnight Iris, Rhubarb Cobbler, Heart of the Fire, Soft Heart of the Fire, Redwood, Calapogon

Also made these, considering putting them up…

That’s all for now, back to dyeing!
