It's update time....

Well, it's been a while since I last got an update together. To tell the truth I had a combination of things happening that stopped me getting one up and running. There were orders to fill, markets, I found a new craft of weaving on a loom and I got my knitting mojo back! You know, I was just saying yesterday that I think that knitters never get bored - too much to do!

If you'd like to adopt one of these new fibrey friends just drop me a PM on ravelry (I'm "phezzit") or email me on: jo.pybus@education.tas.gov.au.

Payment is by Paypal or Direct Deposit.
