My dear friend had a house fire a little over a week ago. Her three kids lost everything. School is just around the corner. I can't even imagine the trauma let alone the stress of figuring all of it out! Stevanie, half of Pico Accuardi Dyeworks (who I share the dyeing space with) is incredibly generous in every way. If you would like to help out her family you can purchase a hat pattern here. All $$ goes to Stevanie's family, who are currently living in a hotel and might have to for the next three months! I just got the pattern and I think it will be perfect for handspun. I'm pretty excited about making a few. Thank you for helping a dear friend.
In other news, I'm just about done knitting up the yarn for the 50 G sock club. I love it! So pretty. If you haven't joined yet there is still time! I am so excited about this little project. I've already got the rest of the colors picked out in my head, they are beautiful!
In family news, E goes back to work on Thursday. I go to a wedding on Friday, return Sunday. I start work on Tuesday. With dyeing squeezed in here and there. Wow it's going to be busy around here! And o got his first tooth on Saturday. Can you believe it?! He'll be three months on Wednesday. e was 3 1/2 months old before his first tooth. A little advanced that o.
Hopefully I'll be back soon with loads of beautiful pictures from the wedding. SO excited for this mini vacation!
I just ordered the pattern- thank you for sharing. Always happy to help and it was super cute. Of course I can't make it but passed it on to the trust MIL who can!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the link to the pattern to help your friend in her time of need. When I was in college, my father and his wife lost their home to a fire (started by an electric blanket). At the time of the fire, they had three "extra" children in their home, in addition to several of my step-siblings. Anyway, as devastating as it was, it could have been so much worse. I am glad that I am able to help in a small way.
