Spring Cleaning

Ain't it the truth...

We are in the final stages of preparing to put the house on the market (yeah, I know, we've BEEN in the final stages for months now, maybe even years; sigh...)

And you know what that means...

!!STASH SALE!!

Here's a quick shot of what's going up on the "Will trade or sell" page on Ravelry over the next week.

Rowan, Plucky Knitter, Blue Sky Alpacas, Shibui, Sweet Georgia, Malabrigo, The Fibre Co., Madelinetosh, Skein, Koigu, Misti Alpacas, Brooklyn Tweed, just to name a few...

Sweater quantities, Fiber, Lace, Fingering, you name it; I probably got it.

So keep checking the destash page here. I'll keep adding stuff till it's all gone.All prices include US shipping.

Better it find a loving home with you, than sit in a storage unit for 12 lonely months while we build.

Ringwraith

The Nazgûl came again . . . like vultures that expect their fill of doomed men's flesh. Out of sight and shot they flew, and yet were ever present, and their deadly voices rent the air. More unbearable they became, not less, at each new cry. At length even the stout-hearted would fling themselves to the ground as the hidden menace passed over them, or they would stand, letting their weapons fall from nerveless hands while into their minds a blackness came, and they thought no more of war, but only of hiding and of crawling, and of death. — The Return of the King

Better Angels

Better Angels

Words and Music by Parker J. Palmer, Sharon Palmer and Carrie Newcomer 

What we want is nothing less

Than the dream behind this land,

A country where each person counts

And gets a helping hand.

And we who’ve been given much,

We can sing this simple song,

“We can keep this gift alive by passing it along”.

Chorus: And that “more perfect union”,

We can have it if we try.

When our hearts are broken open,

Then our better angels fly.

This is the people, by the people,

For the people this is true.

So let’s summon up the very best of us

And call it me and you.

We have lost and we have suffered,

We’ve cried an ocean of tears.

And we know the dread that comes,

When the shadows get too near.

And we know the comfort of a good friend

Saying, “It will be alright.

Take my hand and we will find our way

Through this night.”

Chorus: And that “more perfect union”,

We can have it if we try.

When our hearts are broken open,

Then our better angels fly.

This is the people, by the people,

For the people this is true.

So let’s summon up the very best of us

And call it me and you.

Bridge: We’re gonna make a few mistakes.

We can’t do it all today.

And our hearts are gonna break,

But we’ll do it anyway.

We are all in this together,

We can’t rise when many fall.

So let us work for the common good

As we write upon the wall,

“Take care of one another

Be truthful and be kind

And day by day by reaching out

We will surely find —

Chorus: That “more perfect union”,

We can have it if we try.

When our hearts are broken open,

Then our better angels fly.

This is the people, by the people,

For the people this is true.

So let’s summon up the very best of us

And call it me and you.
