We are still in love with "Paris" tea from Harney & Sons, with "Vanilla Comoro" and "Peach" coming in for close second choices. Our summer has been cool, so we have been drinking our teas hot, and have had only a few iced tea days.
September is already half over, and it seems time to plan for holiday gift giving. The Loom Class group at Yahoo has a wonderful "Lily Dolly" this week that would make a lovely gift, and the Loom-a-Long group at Ravelry is working on a "Snake Hat" that would make any child very happy. The Snake Hat is a good way to learn to knit cables as well. The Loom Dude continues to amaze me with his creativity, and has absolutely wonderful "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Little Bo Peep" dolls. Perfect holiday toys! Finally, the Markman Farms group at Yahoo has a wonderful stitch sampler class, and more great class scheduled for the rest of the year.
Happy looming!
Thanks for the snake hat mention! It looks big but many loomers are knitting it up pretty fast. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am going to have the directions for all my dolls in e-book form soon. Also, I just posted my latest creation: Alice in Wonderland. Take a look! http://loomdude.blogspot.com/2010/09/curiouser-curiouser-alice-is-here.html
