It's been all about dyeing at Smoky Mountain Fibers this season. Between 3 very nice orders and my regular business, I've been keeping the dyepots pretty darn warm. My collaboration with Friends & Fiberworks has resulted in a good uptick even in the traditionally lean fiber months. And with SAFF and the rest of the fabulous fall fiber frenzy, I won't stop until well after the winter holidays.
Although I'll be holding down the fort at the shop, my fiber, hats and patterns will be going to lots of shows this fall. Some are local; others are far away - Stitches East in Connecticut to be exact.
One the production schedule this weekend...
- Overdyeing some lackluster yarns
- Pumpkin orange
- Leafy greens
- A bit of spinning
- Work Saturday afternoon at the yarn shop
- Taking care of my SAFF responsibilities
- Updating my bookkeeping (the decidedly unsexy part of the business).
I'll also go to an English dance, do a bit of yard work, and tackle the pile of paper on the dining room table. What would life be like without a bunch of things (and people) I love!
