nobody Dyes

So, as some of you know, I have been dying a bit of yarn. :D
Good news, it is fun.. bad news, I'm getting no knitting or crocheting done!

I have a granny blanket that needs to be done by April 5th! But even when I do get a chance to work on it, it still doesn't seem to be getting any bigger?
Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon when working in the round?
It grew so fast in the begining.. but now.. nothing?

Anyways, my etsy store will be open as soon as I get the card for my separate account. I will post a link as soon as it is up! :)

I have a couple colorways ready to go, this is what I will be selling in the begining....

These are past due!! They are for one of my ssisters. Her b-day was the 20th.. :( Sorry, but I see you all the time, I never see Jeni, so her wedding blankie needs to get done first, but I promise, I will finish your socks before I start anything else. :D

Oh, in non-yarn news I started replacing all of the light sockets and switches in my house last night. I got about half of them done, and the other half will probably get done tonight.. or am I going to the mall to get a tux for my son since he has a prom to go to next weekend that he just told me about on Tuesday?? umm I'll figure it out later.
But half of my sockets and swithes have been changed from beige with no covers to white with stainless steel covers!! They look really good, and you don't have to bend the prongs on the plugs to get things to stay plugged in! Yeah, I probably should have changed these sooner. hahaha

My ssisters and I are going on a ride this weekend, I will take pics!

Late :D

Hey! Your yarns look fantastic! Can't wait to see some of them in person. (You've been busy!) You asked me what you should see or do in SA in an hour or so? Good question! It's a big city and traffic can be murder depending on the time of day. I'm still thinking!
