Thanks for all of the responses to my recent poll. I'm going to be gathering all of the info from my poll as well as from the Ravelry thread to determine which I will offer as a prize in the giveaway!

I've been working on some new colorways lately as well. Here are a couple examples! What do you think?

Some (sort of) new yarn! :)

2008-12-08T15:15:00.004-05:00

Here are some fairly new additions to my etsy shop! The first two pictures are of Turkish Delight. Its a combination of gold, orange, pinks and purples. I almost want to keep it for myself to see how nice it will look as a pair of socks or something! The third picture down was a custom order of my Woodland Fairy colorway in a worsted weight. The last picture is of Berry Blast. I've also recently added Gypsy to my shop. Pictures of that can be found in my shop - www.twilightknits.etsy.com

I'd love to know what you think! :)

Our trip to Washington DC & Cape May, NJ!

2008-11-23T18:32:00.007-05:00

I thought that everyone might like to see some pictures from our recent trip to Washington DC. We took our son to a couple of the Smithsonian Museums. We went to the Air and Space museum and the Museum of Natural History. We also got to ride on the Metro which our son really loved. He thought that it was Thomas the Train the whole time we were riding it. That alone was worth the trip.

We recently went to Cape May, NJ. It was sooo cold but we decided to walk along the beach anyway. We also saw the lighthouse there and there was a very strange boarded up building made out of cement that no one really knew what it was. I've included some pictures so if you know or have any guesses as to what it could be I would love to know.

Cape May was a beautiful and quaint little town with lots of little shops. I would have loved to have stayed there longer but we didn't have time to get out and walk around. I think there were a few craft shops but unfortunately we didn't get the chance to stop and wander around them either! Hopefully, one day we will go back for a visit!

I've included some pictures for all of you to see! I'd love to know what you think or if you have ever been to any of these places!

Some new additions...

2008-11-16T14:03:00.006-05:00

Hello again! Here are some of my latest additions to my etsy shop I'm totally loving with the way that Punk Rock Princess (the pink, black, purple and blue one) came out! I really like the others as well but it is my favorite!

The other two yarns have not been added to my shop yet as I am still trying to think of names for them. I should be adding them later on in the day though as soon as I decide on the names.

I was thinking of naming the pink & purple one Lingering Embrace. For the one with different shades of green I was thinking of calling it Japanese Slipper - after the Japanese drink containing Midori (a green liquer) and lemon juice. I'd love to know what you think!

Our road trip!

2008-11-12T15:46:00.007-05:00

Hi again! Its been a few days since I've posted last because I was on a trip with my husband and son. We went to St Louis and saw the Arch. It was amazing if you have never been. There is a little circular tram that takes you to the top so you can look out over the city. Here are some pictures from our trip! Enjoy!

Pick your colors!

2008-11-06T13:03:00.003-05:00

Hi again! I would love to know what colors or color combinations that all of you yarn lovers would like to see in a sock yarn! So please take the poll listed on the sidebar or leave a message in the comments section of this post to let me know what your favorite colors or color combinations are so that I can try my hand at recreating the most popular ones!

Keep your eyes peeled because in the upcoming weeks you just might see your favorites come to life right here on this blog! And watch out for future polls as I'm sure there will be many of them and who doesn't love a poll! :)

Happy Knitting & Crocheting!

My very first blog post! :)
