And Now With Less Added Confusion…

Ahem…

I’ve discovered that apparently when I decide to write blog posts/emails while I’m all knackered out right after doing a yarn show…  well, what I write is pretty darned confusing!  The previous blog post in a case in point.  So now I’ve had some coffee, let me see if I can clarify.

I talked about two mailing lists in my previous post:

If you want to find out about the upcoming ebook, the Super Secret Thing, and all sorts of SpaceCadet news and shop updates, make sure you’re on the main SpaceCadet Mailing List.    Emails go out about twice a week, and they’re full of good things.  Click here to sign up.

The second mailing list is members-only for the InterStellar Yarn AllianceIf you joined the Alliance in March, you need to get on the Alliance Mailing List by letting me know it’s ok for me to sign you up.  If you’re already a member of the Alliance, go ahead and shoot me a quick email with  “PUT ME ON THE ISYA MAILING LIST!” and so I can get you signed up.

And if you’re not a member of the InterStellar Yarn Alliance?  The Alliance is currently open for subscriptions, but only for another four days, so come and join us now!

Phew! Ok, I think that’s a bit better.  Lesson learnt: I must never blog or email before coffee!

A Look at the InterStellar Yarn Alliance Parcel

Ok… (looks around)…  ok, I think everyone’s got their parcels by now, so I think I’m safe to share the latest InterStellar Yarn Alliance parcel…

The light has changed recently, as summer turns into autumn.  There’s something more golden about its cast, it falls at gentler angle.  The aura of the end of summer is unmistakeable, and I wanted to capture that in a yarn.

Merino/Bamboo/Nylon fingering yarn in End Of Summer

So I chose this gorgeous 80% Superwash Merino, 20% Bamboo, 10% Nylon fingering weight, because Bamboo really captures the light to create a beautiful sheen across the yarn.  And then I dyed it in the shades of summer fields, as the grass turns to a deeper shade of green, and then begins to fade to gold.

To me, these colours perfectly capture the End of Summer.  And so that’s exactly what I named it!

And here’s something really fun:  this month, I had Debbie at Divine Scentsations create some wonderful, hand-made soaps for the Yarn Alliance members.  She did four scents — Lavender, Peppermint Leaf, Lemongrass Tea, and Citrus Lavender — and they are incredible!  I can show you pictures but… oh! If only you could smell them!

One of the Alliance members said she knew she had Lavender even before she opened the package.  These soaps smell amazing!  I kept trying to pick my favourite scent but… it’s impossible.  They’re all really different but soooo delicious.
