It’s December, which means I can officially think about December holidays. (I refuse to acknowledge December until November is through. I’m stubborn.) What treats do you want to find in your stocking? Or next to your menorah? (Eight gifts?)

I found out that this picture is from John and Marcia from Sheep’s Clothing in Kennewick, WA. Thanks so much for the picture! If anyone else has a picture of their Lantern Moon tape measure in some exotic locale, let me know! Sean tells me that Sheep’s Clothing is going to be carrying a pretty [...]
Lambert had a little getaway last weekend. Can you tell me where he went? Winner will receive a Meadow Pouch. These are a great size for a small take along project. Arent these sweet? Be as specific as you can with Lambert’s location; your answer should emcompass all three pictures. I’ll pick a random winner [...]
Lantern Moon tape measures on the move…
Posted in notions on Nov 1st, 2011
We’re currently following the adventures of Lambert on his travels. But he’s not the only traveling Lantern Moon tape measure! Sean sent me this picture of a Queen Bee tape measure at Old Faithful, the geyser at Yellowstone National Park. Cool! Or hot, you might say. Let me know if you’re the sender; Sean didn’t [...]
Where’s Lambert?–contest
Posted in notions on Oct 17th, 2011
Lambert went on a road trip last week. If you know where he is in this photo, let me know! First correct answer gets a sheep sherpa! This sweet sheep is an all-purpose storage solution for your essentials. It has a soft padded lining that can safely hold your cell phone, reading glasses, small tools, [...]
But it was fun while it lasted! Have you met Sean? He’s one of our sales reps. It’s nice to have a face to associate with the voice on the phone. And if you’ve met him in person, you know that he’s charming! I gave away Lady Baa-Baa to Franklin Habit, and I gave her [...]
Out of my bag, at least. I replaced Lady Baa-Baa on Friday, but hadn’t yet named him/her/it, and then I gave the new one away, too. This is Anna Zilboorg. I’ve admired her knitting since way back when. I had a color knitting class with her at Stitches in 1997 (the one and only time [...]
Lady Baa-Baa went to Sock Summit with me on Thursday, and had a great time. I took Franklin Habit’s class on Photographing Your Fiber and learned a bit about lighting and staging and camera settings. Lady B had a turn in the light box with my Pacific Shawl. After class, I asked Franklin if he [...]
And the sheep’s name is…
Posted in notions on Jul 22nd, 2011
Where do I begin? First I had to decide if the sheep is a boy or a girl. I tried to figure that out with kittens a few weeks ago, and even googling left me uncertain. I was assuming the sheep was a girl, but you never know. I loved reading through all the names [...]
Another week, another location…
Posted in notions on Jul 20th, 2011
…for this still un-named sheep! The sheep spent some time in SE Idaho on the Snake River. Sunny and warm! But now she’s back in the Pacific Northwet. I was on a trip chaperoning 20 teens on a mission trip. If you want to know more about it, you can check in on my blog. [...]
