Instagram post 17883666244457999 Seaworthy (https://www.haldecraft.com/collections/yarn/products/seaworthy). Seaworthy is the light and dark wood of an old Tall Ship, and the dark blue of ocean and sky. The blue spirals through shades of browns, bright through the lighter and darker brown, like waves hitting the side of a ship. All you need is this (and a star to steer her by).
Instagram post 18097931260099443 Four of the random December mugs. I have to admit I'm not sure what to do with these. When I first showed them off, they needed to go back through the kiln, and I wasn't sure if they'd fix up or not. They did, and everyone seemed excited about it, and I took them to GLAM where some people had said they'd wanted to see them in person, and... not a single one of them sold. Now I'm torn between taking them to the Melrose Farmer's Market with me or going ahead and putting them up online. The Farmer's Market may win out only because I'm feeling too lazy to figure out how to list eight different things in a listing that already has twelve things and can't have sub-things...
Instagram post 17843028085867219 The last big kiln firing before GLAM last week... about half of what's here, sold at GLAM, and I'm working on getting the rest photographed and uploaded.
Instagram post 17847548917781513 This One Hit Wonder in Andre (https://www.haldecraft.com/collections/yarn/products/one-hit-wonder?variant=7772181725212), a sock weight base, is the best of Autumn leaves! Golden red-brown with a warmth that belies that cold state of the season.
Instagram post 17847112477810035 ... I may have gone a bit overboard with the cabled soap dishes! Who's got a yarn lover in their life? You can find these here (https://www.haldecraft.com/collections/ceramics-the-cabled-collection/products/cable-stitch-soap-dish). Thanks, y'all!
Instagram post 17865836437572553 I gotta be honest, I'm just really not feeling either today's cheese (another hot & spicy) or today's tea (Wild Raspberry Hibiscus). It's been a long day and all I really want is a simple whiskey sour....!
Instagram post 17869482181534992 Salted Caramel (https://www.haldecraft.com/collections/yarn/products/salted-caramel). It's not brown, it's not orange, it's a beautiful, sweet mix of the two. Buttery rich caramel with a little something added to it that highlights the sweetness and gives off an almost otherworldly glow... you'll love working up this rich colorway! And unlike real salted caramel, this yarn is 100% guaranteed not to stick in your teeth (unless for some reason you chew on it, which we don't really recommend -but we know ourselves delicious looking yarn can be tempting...!).

I’m not going to talk about last night’s Walking Dead

I’m not going to talk about last night’s Walking Dead

Lorena October 24, 2016 My Random LifeLeave a comment

… mostly because I’ve been talking about it on Facebook or via text message all morning, and while I totes could say a bunch more, I’ve already spent so much time on it I’m running late for the day. And I wanted to get a lot of work done today! …

Too early; no brain; send coffee
