Cover your plants!  There's a freeze warning tonight!  Wish this were some kind of a joke, but it's not :-(  I know some parts of the country are ready for a cool down, but in Central Oregon, Summer just got here about a month ago and I don't think we have even seen 90 yet.  Oh well, cooler weather does mean more time and inclination for fiber artsy stuff.  Here's our Fall schedule in a nutshell - more to come.

We're back!

Just a quick note to let you all know I'm back.
 
Thanks for all your thoughts & prayers.  Looks like Papa, as far as the brain is concerned, should make a full recovery.  Other than a really bad headache and nausea, he appears to have no lasting brain damage.  As far as the rest of his almost ready to retire body, only time and physical therapy will tell.
 
The sheep to batt class rescheduled for this Friday, Feb 4th, 10-2pm, cost $25(includes 1/2 pound fiber) is a go and we have 2 spaces open.
 
The felt bag class  for Sat. Feb 12th is currently full, but I am happy to start a waiting list which will receive priority for future classes.
 
Hope to see Ewe's Soon!

catalog updates

Will be finishing up adding the commercial yarns available out at the ranch, including Brown Sheep, Universal, and several others. Also, finishing up adding felting kits, and square circular, double points, and straight needles and crochet hooks.

And soon, you can make purchases without needing to call or drive out. Soon we will have a button on each product that allows you to add products to a shopping cart and purchase through paypal.

Don't have a pay pal account? Easy fix.

Go to paypal.com, sign up (it's free) and you are on you way, you just add a debit or credit card to the files, and you accurate shipping address, and they keep it secure. the only time anyone sees the address is when you buy something, then the company will see the address on the shipping label. Your credit card number is NEVER given out, no one sees it but you.

Keep your eyes open for that addition soon.
