There was a crazy something happening in the Ravelry servers tonight and they may have sent out download emails a) in crazy bulk (I’m sorry!) or b) that didn’t work.
I’m still trying to sort out my inbox, so for those with links that didn’t work, if you emailed me I will email you back a new download link. You can also go into your Ravelry purchases tab and you should be able to download a working copy now.
Actual content coming soon! Stay tuned!
While I certainly know of the power of the Yarn Harlot, I’ve never personally experienced it!
Big thanks to everyone who has downloaded the Just Enough Ruffles pattern. Unfortunately Ravelry seems to be running a bit behind at the moment and is taking a few minutes to send out download emails.
So if you haven’t received a download email within 10-15 minutes, shoot me an email – but give it that couple minutes to catch up, okay? I’m pretty certain that all the emails are actually going out, but with a bit of delay.
Thanks again!
On Saturday I hopped a Greyhound and headed out to New Hamburg, ON (halfway between Kitchener and Stratford) to teach a class at Shall We Knit?
Timing was a bit tight what with the bus getting into Kitchener (very sketchy bus stop, that Sportsworld) at 11:30 and the class starting at 12, but everything worked out. We did a top-down mini sock with a short row heel with Magic Loop. All the students were great, although the conference room we were in was a bit tight for 11 people!
After the class I wandered about the shop, which is really lovely – bright, lots of beautiful yarn, lots of interesting stuff (“giftware”). I picked up quite a pile of yarn!
Some Debbie Bliss Chunky Tweed for a sweatercoat:
There wasn’t quite enough of the brown, so I got a bit of blue for a contrast colour.
Some super duper soft Mirasol bamboo/alpaca for a slouchy hat:
And some gorgeous little bits of loveliness – Koigu mill ends! I love the colours all together. I’m thinking either a colourwork cowl or maybe the yoke of a sweater. I do have quite a bit of other bits and pieces of Koigu so there’d be a bunch to choose from!
One other thing I picked up at the shop, non-yarn:
It’s a V&A printed vacuum flask. I’m not sure what I’ll put in it, probably just water (since that’s what I drink mostly!) although it might be a bit of hassle what with there being two lids, the cup and the vacuum seal. At any rate, it’s awesomely pretty.
Then I got a ride back to Kitchener to get on the bus and come home. I may not have left the shop with much money after picking up all this yummy yarn, and I may have spent over three hours on various forms of transit that day, but it was really fun. And if Shall We Knit was closer I’d totally shop there!
