2020, We're in business!
Happy New Year! We’re ushering in 2020 with all the warmth and good feelings and EXCITEMENT of knowing that this year, everything is going to be even better than before. 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 Grand Reopen 2020 is happening RIGHT NOW in the facebook group. It’s running January 1-10 with payments due on the 12th. There was no feasible way for me to run it on the website (at least that I could figure out. I’m still new at this.) If you want in on the Specials and the Customs List, you’ll need to join. I have also updated the shop with listings for pre-orders, and will be stocking more items soon.
I’m teaching one-on-one classes at Green Heart Awakening in Pendleton, SC on January 10th. There are only 3 slots left, 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) is up and running and gathering steam in the Ravelry group. During the 2020 year, I plan to host a new CAL/KAL (knit-along)/SAL (spin-along)/WAL (weave-along) each month. I’m reviving the Ravelry group just for this purpose! In addition to this, the group will also be updated with all the new patterns I will be publishing. Please join 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’m drafting a new format that will include, among the news recaps and info, a yarn and fiber spotlight as well as a book review. 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 ♥
