Busy, busy..
..as the Bendigo sheep and wool show gets close.
I can get photos done of progress, but takes time to then get them to computer.
Dyed tops are ongoing, dyed some more sock yarn, and m winding off 100gm lots of white 8ply Corriedale yarn for dyeing. Decided to spin up some of my dyed tops as I had sold more handspun yarn and this needed topping up.
I completed a new style jumper to sell at Bendigo but has now been sold and gone to Tasmania. so am halfway through another using Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Pumpkin, and more machine knitting needs to be done.
And need I say Girgarre market is on this Sunday.
Tuesday and Wednesday are medical appointments for my mother.
Then Bendigo to set up on Thursday.
That's about it. So back to work. Follow me on Facebook and you will get more details on what is happening.

New wool tops..
..added to the website.
With a 2 day event in June, and a 3 day event in July, I am starting to slowly get more dyeing of products done.
So I have started with a few wool tops, and have started some sock yarn.
As well have added some more colours to my Poncho/Wrap.
Currently on the mid gauge machine I have a rolled shawl collared jacket.
so now the website is updated it is time to get back to the knitting machine.

Found a new Website...
...to play with.
It is more easy to navigate. So it is now live on a trial basis
Check it out at
http://colleenscrafts.spiffystores.com
I think I will go with it. I still have a bit of work to do and improve content.
Wish me luck.
Also it is set here in Australia, so fees stay here.

re Website
Just giving a headsup to the fact that I will not be renewing my account for my website colleenscraftsstore, as I sell mostly through markets and yarns on etsy. It has been mostly an advertising venture.
But rest assured I will still be active on etsy and facebook, and my Yarn van will still go to the markets.
