Presenting the Return of Sweetwater


I really don’t know what I was waiting for on this one. I’ve only dyed it once before, I think I remember liking it then. It’s back and I love it! This brings my colourway total to 10. I think I’ll stay at that number for awhile; alot of the time I’ll try a new colorway, but don’t quite like it, so you’ll see those from time to time.

Okay update time! This week, we’re going to have 2 Etsy shop updates, and maybe one next week. I’m going to post 2 of every color I have right now today, but later. Say around 7:30-8pm eastern standard time. Now, don’t panic if you can’t stalk today. On friday, I’ll be posting the same amount, or close to it, but earlier in the day. Say around 2-3pm eastern standard time. Sound good? Everybody got that? Okay!
I decided to do it this way, cause honestly, shipping and paypal coordination on a bijillion skeins makes my brain melt. I also wanted to give everyone some equal opportunity. Also- I will not combine shipping for todays purchases with Fridays purchases. This defeats the non-brain melting goal. Please don’t ask. Okay? Feel free to ask questions in the comments. I have to go prepare yarn for dyeing now, and make a big pot O’ coffee.

ETA:Holy mother of yarn! I love all of you! You and you and you and you, and everybody who just sold me out in minutes! By the time I got another color posted, all the previous colors would be gone, and like, 30 people had viewed everything. You are all wonderful! I’m so flattered! Especially sice Nikon just spanked me with a HUGE repair estimate to get my camera back to me. You have no idea how much this means to me. Remember, I’ll be posting more on Friday, and dyeing all weekend!! Thank you people, thank you thank you, we’re glad you enjoyed the show, thank you!!

    Woohoo! Maybe I’ll get some this time!

    Thanks for the tip on the sock bind off. I used US 9 needles and it worked great.

    I love it. I’ll be sure to keep an eye on the shop in hopes I can snatch some of it up! I must say your yarn is seriously yummy, I have a yarn cake of it sitting by my bed that I periodically squish and pet. 🙂

    I’m sitting here on Etsy.com clicking refresh, waiting for the yarn to show up. It’s like trying to buy hard-to-get tickets on Ticketmaster!

    Julia–you rock!
