Dances With Wool

 


Here is a selfie I took during my first day of work at Dances With Wool.

Unsurprisingly, I've been enjoying my new job SOOOOOO...very much!!! Debbie, the owner, and all of my co-workers have been so kind and welcoming.  The diverse skill set and mad skills of everyone is mind blowing.  I'll be working Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and one Saturday per month in addition to helping out at special events.  I usually also attend the morning meet ups before work starts on Tuesdays and Fridays.  

I am still working on Etsy everyday and assisting The Collectors Club with our virtual speakers series and I just started working with a new planning committee to organize upcoming functions and services at The Collectors Club's new location.  It isn't open to the public yet and we still have a lot of behind the scenes work to do so I'm not going to elaborate on it any further for now.  The main thing is that all of this work, in addition to also trying to get a functioning PTA going at Xena's new school has left me very little time for knitting.

That being said, I have finally finished my Rhinebeck Sweater but I'm going to wait until Rhinebeck to reveal it.  I started my Rhinebeck socks and plan to put some serious effort into them this weekend.  I finished a pair of socks for Xena that's she's been wearing so much that I haven't had time to block them or take photos and I'm about to finish a pair of toddler socks for an upcoming birthday party.  I am also almost finished with my Summer Vibes top which is also technically a Rhinebeck top, because I bought the yarn and kit the first time I ever attended Rhinebeck.  That's all for now.  I'm really looking forward to some M_F sweater weather!
