Issue 4, It’s Haunting Me.

There’s no doubt about it, I need to get cracking.

So I like to throw out to the blog readers any requests, or ideas they might have.  I think I have Eye on The Industry, but I need a Fiber Spotlight topic.  I’ve done Shetland, Alpaca, and soysilk.  SO I guess maybe it’s time to do a synthetic?  Or maybe a cellulose, like flax or cotton.  What would you guys like to read about?

I am still pondering what products I would like to review, and I need to get some knitting done, really bad!  I’ve been playing wood shop so much that I haven’t gotten Sheep To Chic or the entrelac shawl done.  I need to work on those, perhaps tommorrow I will put a few hours aside for it.

Now is a great time to think about submitting an article.  I have taken several that were just blog posts!  The writer fleashed them out just a bit, and voila!  So think about what you’ve got, and let me know if you have something fibery that you might be willing to share.

On other news, I am STILL waiting to hear from Knitty, which isn’t surprising really, but still killing me.  I hate waiting.  I am in my goodness refraining from emailing to bug them about it.  I guess if they hated it they would have known right off.  I have issues with rejection, and besides I would be really happy to post it to S&W so I have a double whammy of the waiting game.  I hate waiting.

Tomorrow, I should have enough information to post a picture of Nikki’s prize.  I wanted to find out what colors she likes and that sort of thing.  I do have several things already picked out to send though, and well, lets just say, that saying goodbye won’t be easy, but I will survive it.
