Sorting

I mentioned in my Spring Manifesto that I was going to try to enjoy the huge job of sorting all the Easter egg dyes I purchased.

I had to put it on the list because, oy, what a job. The above is about HALF of the stash I acquired in the week following Easter.

The boxes are certainly too bulky to keep around and they’re filled with a bunch of stuff I don’t want. Those little metal egg-dippers, wax crayons (kept them for who know’s what craft project), tiny stickers (gave them to every mom-of-a-toddler I know).

Once the boxes are open, I cut open the little plastic package they come in and sort them by color in mason jars.

These jars sit on a shelf in my “dyeing studio” (code name: laundry room) and whenever I need a tablet, I pop it out.

Summer Vacation – Day 6

This week I’m on vacation on the lovely shore of Emerald Isle. But because I love my work, the Boutique is still open with new yarns everyday and I’m still talking to customers via email. So I’m away but still checking in. Each day I’ll be posting a few pictures from the vacation, especially the yarny inspiration.

Today I recovered from a super-mild case of sun poisoning (ugh) by laying around inside: Marathon Scrabble games and piecing a quilt.

Summer Vacation – Day 5

My Birthday! We did it all today: beach-swimming, yarn shopping, flower-sniffing, go-kart-driving, eating on the pier.

Summer Vacation – Day 4

This week I’m on vacation on the lovely shore of Emerald Isle. But because I love my work, the Boutique is still open with new yarns everyday and I’m still talking to customers via email. So I’m away but still checking in. Each day I’ll be posting a few pictures from the vacation, especially the yarny inspiration.

Today was another beachy-day! Knitting, reading, swimming, shelling. Ending in some cake (tomorrow’s my birthday!) and in-bed reading. The beachhouse has a TV in the bedroom, which feels like pure luxury – to lay in bed and knit and watch TV and read all at once!
