Summer Vacation plans + Willow Update + 5 Things

What better way to get back into blogging after a 3 1/2 month blogging vacation than to announce that we’re going on vacation? LOL! We have built a pretty extensive summer break into our business model and though this summer is one like no other we are determined to make the most of it!

The web shop will temporarily switch to an inventory based system on July 6th before shutting down completely on July 13th. We will reopen when we’re refreshed and ready towards the end of August.

At the end of the day, on Monday, July 6th, the website will temporarily switch to an inventory based system. That means that this weekend is your last chance to order any of our Core Collection yarns and colours in whatever quantities you need! The shop will remain open for orders until the end of the week but we won’t be dyeing to order, inventory based means that I will count every last skein in the office and list the exact numbers available so when your order comes in I can ship it right away. There will still be lots in stock but quantities will be limited. This will make the transition to shutting down easier for me to manage.

BUT… Before we shut down we’re doing one last Willow and Rock It Tee Kit Update! The update will be tomorrow, July 4th at 12pm (noon) ET and will feature the 5 colours shown below.

Beautiful, subtle speckles on Willow. Swoon. Bisou, Crystal, Metropolis, Rocket, Speckled Iris.

And because I used to do a “5 THINGS” post every Friday and I miss it, here are 5 random things!

My brother and his wife brought this beautiful baby boy into the world last month and I finally got to hold him! He is perfection. He looks just like my brother. It’s amazing.
