the fine rowan, koigu, and noro skeins in my stash have put their foot down and declared that these cheap floosies must go! it doesn't matter how they got here. the point is that they need to find a new home. there are 3 skeins of Berrocco Metallic FX (they have a couple of runs, but are totally knittable), 2 skeins of Crystal Palace Fizz, 1 skein of Crystal Palace Big Net, 1 skein of Knitpicks Sparkles and 1 skein of Knitpicks Twist. the retail value is $45 - 50. this premium acrylic can be yours for $23 + $5 shipping (within US) or best offer. email me.
perfect for those who love to knit crazy, shiny, fuzzy, flammable scarves! truth be told, i don't really know if this stuff is flammable. i just like the way that sounds.
in other wonderful, exciting news, my book, Yarnplay, is now available for pre-order at Amazon.com! (see sidebar) yay! cover photo coming soon.
the pattern for Tulip is coming soon! any PDF knowledgable person who might want to plop the pattern and photo into a nice, neat PDF file in exchange for the pattern, please let me know. i mean, it's a pretty simple job right? i'm not asking for any advanced graphic skills, am i? seriously, i don't know about this stuff. fill me in.
Go to the adobe website and sign up for a trial of their web-based pdf file. You can do it for free.Or send it to me (or anyone with a mac, print to pdf function) and I'll do it gladly.
Cheers
Greeley

Flammable? Now, I wouldn't fire up a bowl wearing a scarf made from these lovelies... Not that I've *ever* fired up a bowl of *anything*... Shutting up now.
