Sweater socks & sock garters
Today we got a huge box of white sweater socks.
In anticipation of their arrival I put on my own pair, which you may remember me dyeing lavender last month. I’ve gotten alot of compliments on this color but am waiting to dye a batch because I was told by the supplier that they were making them in a purple & I want to see what they come up with since mass dyeing has proven to be a challenge for me at this time (due largely to lack of space & proper equipment). Sometime in the next week I’m expecting another box from them that will have (among other things) samples, hopefully it will include samples of the longer version of these I requested. I will post more information here as soon as I have more information to post.
Last night we sold the last pair of the elastic sock garters made by the folks at Orkney Angora so I’ve switched things around and made a special page for sock garters (yes, still in the current format because I hit a bit of a wall with the redesign, I’ll get past it, in time, anyway…) I currently have red buttons, black buttons & white elastic, I should have my mother of pearl buttons by this weekend and am looking for some other nice buttons like glass & fancy antique styles, I’ll also go ahead & get the more expensive imported black elastic if they don’t get the domestic in soon. I’ve written them three times now about it, you’d think they’d find the time to respond. I myself have trouble keeping up with all the questions & letters I get, but it’s been over a week since I sent the first one. Sorry if I sound whiny, I’m quite tired, the bookstore needed me to work alot more days than usual this week, which I love, despite not having as much time to procrastinate as I’m used to, but these toes are tired tonight! Tomorrow I’ll tell you what else came in the mail today…
