FABruary Updates
It’s the month of LOVE! I love all of you so very much. You all have made this business such a joy to run and share. Thank you to everyone who continues to support ♥
So much excitement going on, I wanted to update you a few new things. I know you don’t want to miss anything, so I’m going to make it really easy for you to find everything. Please have a look around the site, join the facebook group, share your pics of finished items from R&R patterns, and contact me to let me know of any suggestions, requests, or questions you may have.
The St. Patrick’s Day FLASH will be held in the facebook group on Thursday, February 27th. I’ve got some KILLER stuff going into this one, and I know you’ll love it! Make sure to join the facebook group if you haven’t already, and either turn your notifications on or remember to check in every day or two so you don’t miss this. Keep in mind that any FLASH is only open for 48 hours, and I can’t take any straggler orders!
The January classes were so much fun, we’re doing it again! I’m teaching one-on-one classes at Green Heart Awakening in Pendleton, SC on Saturday, February 15th. YES, A SATURDAY! There are only 4 slots available, so if you or someone you know is interested, be sure to purchase as soon as possible. All materials will be provided. It’s going to be such fun!
Our very first crochet-along (CAL) was a smashing success in the Ravelry group! Everyone enjoyed the Felici On The Double cowl so much that we’re now hosting a CAL for the matching Felici On The Double hat! This hat was designed by me to use the same yarn, the same hook, and the same chevron pattern as the cowl, but with some clever decreases in the crown. We don’t want to interrupt those gorgeous chevrons!
We’re also hosting our first knit-along (KAL) for Mirella Moments’ Headband With A Twist. This headband is knit in English rib, so it’s sure to be a fun time! We would love to have you join in. Come stitch with us!
If you’re not already a newsletter subscriber, you might want to go ahead and click the button. I only send one or two newsletters per month, so I will not be inundating your inbox. I’ve recently drafted a new format that includes, among the news recaps and info, a yarn and fiber spotlight as well as a book review. I also periodically send out coupon codes and freebies! You will receive updates through the newsletter of any new pattern releases, sales in my ravelry shop, specials and customs events coming up, CAL/KAL info, and so much more!
You’re here!
Welcome, yarn and fiber enthusiast! I am so excited to have you visit. Sati here, and I’m completely, ridiculously, emphatically in love with yarn. And fiber. Also sheep, alpacas, cotton plants OMG, and flax, which is where linen comes from, in case you didn’t know. You’ll learn a lot about this stuff whether you want to or not if you hang out with me.
Let me give you a quick rundown of the website: “Happenings” is the blog. Info and community can be found here. “Shop” is where you can shop all the yumminess. “My Calendar” is where I’ll put info on upcoming events, so that you’ll know when customs open again, or if there’s going to be a round of Specials anytime soon. “Talk to Me!” is the contact form. Use it for anything, from questions, to suggestions, to bug reports, to just saying hey.
Here’s my story:
My journey started out in 2010 crocheting woolies for my baby girl (who is now 9. HOW???) I was excited to learn how to crochet, and posted pics on facebook of my finished items. Once I started sharing info, people started asking how much it would cost for me to make them something “like that” every time I would post something new. Then I entered a whirlwind that went something like this…
Facebook page ** Commissions ** Hyenacart ** Facebook group ** Processed my first fleece ** Started spinning yarn ** Learned to dye yarn ** Discovered knitting ** Started writing patterns ** Began teaching classes ** Became independent contractor for WeCrochet testing patterns and crocheting samples ** …and I just bought a rigid heddle loom, so I’m weaving now.
Are you tired? I’m tired.
So now what? Build a website and put together a newsletter, of course! Are you a yarn and fiber enthusiast? Did you sign up for the newsletter? You know, that annoying af pop-up when you first visited this site? If you didn’t, please do! I would be honored to share my passion for yarn with you. There’s a sign-up form at the bottom of this page.
Please browse around and have a good time. If you like what you see, I’d appreciate a few button presses and comments to help up my website ratings ♥
