Happy Birthday, Baby!




Yesterday I said I was going to announce a 'special' on my publications.  Traditionally I have done this as a combination Canada Day/July 4/my birthday offering.

So, here's the deal.

I have produced Magic in the Water; wet finishing handwovens.  This is now OOP as a 'real' book, but available on CD (3 copies), on a flash drive or a digital download.

A Good Yarn:  Cotton (8 copies, I think, 6 for sure) and A Good Yarn: Rayon (way too many copies left - 40?) are sample packets with explanations of the fibre characteristics of each yarn.  Cotton has 10 projects with before and after wet finished actual fabric samples.  Rayon has 7.

In addition to my own titles I published Kerstin Froberg's Weave A V.  This booklet explains how to weave a V shaped shawl using double weave. It includes explanations for both rising and sinking shed looms, how to weave four shaft weaves in double weave/width and how to derive the tie up to make sure it works properly when you open the cloth up.

Magic on cd/flashdrive:  $25
A Good Yarn:  Cotton:  $50
A Good Yarn:  Rayon:  $40
Weave a V:  $20

Normally these prices would all have shipping added.

Until the end of July (or stock runs out):

Buy any two items and shipping is free.

Since this isn't perhaps of interest to everyone:

Tea Towels!  Have I got Tea Towels!

They range in price from $24-$36 depending on fibre and weave structure.  Some are 2/8 cotton warp with cotton slub for weft - great kitchen utility towels.  $24 each.

Some have cottolin for weft:  $32 each.

Finer cotton warp (2/16 or 2/20 mostly) with fine linen weft:  $36 each.

Soooo - buy any two items and get free shipping until the end of July or stock runs out.

Note:  tea towels come in a variety of colours - let me know what colour(s) you would like and I can send photos if I have any in that colour range...

Further note:  If you are across the pond, contact Kerstin directly for Weave a V  - although she isn't having a 'sale' you'll get it a lot quicker than coming from me via snail (ground) mail.
