Holy Flyin Almost Autumn Batman

I have been super busy. Work is insane.

But I am running a sock clinic on October 4th for the Victory Gardener & Gardeness, our friend Christina, and my Hetero Life Partner, ScarletGashes. I am also joining a real life guild with Snapper and becoming more active on Ravelry, AND I am now signed up to teach at Chester County Night School!

I have a lot of ideas, and I'm developing some more stuff for my Twin Peaks series. I have done a considerable amount of work on a Coraline costume for a dear friend (though the last two weeks have prohibited much work) I'm at a stall with my Alchemy Yarns Print o' The Wave stole, and the Baby Blanket for my step-sister is also at a standstill. Even though the child has been born. Good Job, Me!

Fall always gives me a case of Fiber-Related Madness. I've been looking at Etsy a lot, especially for a) Halloween Costume Elements!! and b) sock yarn.

I'm really interested in learning to dye. I have some great ideas and some marketing bonuses once I get that under control. Snapper assures me that Yarn School, while it looks fun and extravagant, is unnecessary to develop my skills, especially given how adventurous and quick of a study I am. *Flattered!*

I'm excited for this weekend, because it is Delaware Oktoberfest, and the Weakerthans show. Also, Psst! Phat Fiber Boxes release this weekend!!!!! It will be my first Phat Fiber Box, if I manage to get one.

I'm trying to figure out why I'm so much better at spinning on my drop spindle than I am on the Sgt. Hannah Wheel. The principles are all the same, but my execution on the wheel is spotty at best. I must be doing something wrong? Anyway, I'm sure that between Snapper and the rest of The Guild, I will be straightened out in no time!

In the meantime, I should get back to work. I have a big meeting tomorrow!
xo!
