WiP: Gemini by Jane Richmond (almost there!!!); Wedding #2 Log Cabin Blanket
HF: Slipper
Need to seam: six slippers
Exciting News Part 1!
I'm getting my fall shows lined up! So far:
November 16 - Edgemont Christmas Craft Fair, Edgemont Community Centre (9-3)
November 30 - Handmade Craft Parade, St. Michael School (10-3)
Tentative: December 6 - Mountain Made, Canmore, AB.
I think that'll keep me sufficiently busy for this holiday season, as I am going to be more regularly updating Etsy.
Exciting News Part 2!
I will be able to accept Visa & Mastercard at these markets, as I went and purchased a Square card reader. This means that I can now accept payments via these two large credit card companies.
Exiting News Part 3!
I'm going to be updating Etsy this weekend.
Watch this space, as well as Facebook/Twitter for the updates to come!
Have a lovely day, my dears!

And There She is, Gone
WiP: Gemini by Jane Richmond (Gemini is a free pattern, so definitely worth taking a look at...!), Wedding # 2 Log Cabin blanket edging (simply eyelet border, four lace rows)
Well, the summer came for one day, and now it feels like fall and time for even more knitted sweaters!!
Standing on the train platform this morning, I got to thinking about what kind of mittens, hats, and scarves I wanted for the winter.
Also, there will be some changes upcoming around here, but they're under wraps for now. I can let you know that they're exciting, however!
Also, there will finally be an Etsy update within the next week! I'm going to be photographing my items this weekend and likely posting them on Monday.
That's all for now, though!
Have a lovely couple of days!

And Then, the Fabric Became Bags!!
WiP: slippers, Meg Swansen's "Spanish Peacock" shawl
Needs a zipper: Dallas's cardigan
I also got the chance to go to the Hays Breakfast at Heritage Park with my friend! We stood right behind Nenshi, AND I got to see a sheep with her lambs, and get some Chuckwagon Drivers' autographs!
Finally, I'm nearly finished Dallas's sweater. So happy for it, too. Since this picture, the collar's been sewn down and all the ends woven in. I just need to sew the zipper in!
What have all you lovely folks been up to?

What I'm Reading Wednesday
Down to the one book this week! I'll probably stick with the one for now and finish it before I even decide what's next, although 1001 Tales of the Arabian Nights is already high on my list.
Right now, I'm going to finish:
A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki

My Summer so Far
WiP: Felted Mittens, Chunky Slippers
FOs: Chunky Slippers (blue)
It's going to be a busy summer here at Nekozuki Yarns!
After I posted that I was looking for inspiration, I sat down, cracked the whip, and started a calendar along with a schedule for the next three months; now I need to plot out the three months after that.
This will not be a hard and fast sort of thing, as I'm starting to new products never seen in my shop before!
Like, box bags out of this awesome Marvel fabric I just found last night:
There will also be some of the same, like the felted mittens I worked on outside of Starbucks while I read the other day:
And although this is not something that I'm going to sell, but I finished Dallas's cardigan on Canada Day (and that's his blanket drying in the background - Log cabin baby blankets will likely be available at some point in the next year):

Finally, this is the Trans-Canada, only 9 days after it had been devastatingly washed out by the floods! (Sunday of Canada Day weekend, no less.)
So, my summer's going to be busy! Look for more posts and photos as it progresses!
(Also, so glad that summer weather has finally got here...Although on the hottest days I have now been knitting mittens!)
What have you been up to so far this summer?
