Bad Blogger! No Cookie for you!

I have been remiss in keeping up with my blog. I recently moved my art blogging to its very own url ( www.cgovernoillustration.com ) where I have an online portfolio. And I haven't been back here to update things since! Bad Blogger!

So what's been going on? I branched out more with my hand dyed fibers and borrowed a friend's drum carder (very long term so it seems!)

Phat Fiber Feb 2011

I started working with a new mill that gives me access to new fibers and yarns. I have a big order headed my way as I write with new blends of Blitheful (SW BFL Sock yarn), Revelous (SW Merino/Bamboo/Nylon Sock Yarn), and Merry Merino Lace. All three will work really well in the new Gradient Maki.

And I'm doing more craft shows and fiber festivals where semi-solids and subtle hand painted yarns sell very, very well. I'm currently getting ready for the RI Fiber Festival at Coggeshall Farm Museum in Bristol, RI. I'll be dyeing up some new Scrumpet DK in some popular colors for this show. Maybe I'll do some Purposeful Poolers too!

Stay tuned! I'll be trying to blog more often. :pinky swear:
