Lynn's Coming Home, Price Rollbacks, and CAKE!

Lynn's coming home!  My college freshman (or is it freshwoman?) will be home December 16th and has promised to make us a cake for our Saturday get together on the 18th.  Take a break from your holiday frenzy to stop by for stories from college, a well deserved break, and yes - CAKE!

 

Price Roll Back - The price of our Oregon Collection fingering weight yarns has been reduced:  

    Superwash Merino/Tencel was $17.50 now $14.00 for 4 oz 412yds 

      Superwash Wool/Nylon was $15.50 now $12.50 for 4 oz 434 yds

 

Remember your fiber friends with a Gift Certificate to Baabaara's Wild & Wooly.  Available in any amount.

 

Schedule Change - We will be closed December 24th-Jan1st to spend time with family.  Call ahead shopping is available as long as I'm in town.

 

Sheep to Batt workshop - Friday Jan 28th 10am-2pm - $25

No this is not a form of "Vampirism".  I will be demonstrating the "Wild & Wooly" way to get that fabulous fleece you purchased last summer from the stinky bag to a usable  batt.  We will be using one of my fleeces to learn how to skirt, wash, pick, and card.  You will leave with 1/2 pound of fiber prepared by you to your specifications. Reservation required. 

 

Last but not least - a note from Amy with Sublime Accents

Just a reminder about the Gossamer Holiday Indie Craft Loft this
weekend.  It is at Gossamer The Knitting Place in the upper Old Mill
on SW Industrial Way.  Saturday 10am - 7pm and Sunday 10am - 5pm.  I
will be on the second floor right after you come up the stairs so if
you are out and about on either of those days come by and say hi!

--Amy

 

Have a safe and wonderful Holiday Season!

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.

Mark your Calendars!
