Yarnover Truck + CAL
I have two exciting things to tell you about this week.

First off, for those of you in the Los Angeles, California area– this weekend is your friendly local yarn crawl! If you’ve never been on a yarn crawl, they are so much fun! You hop from shop to shop, stamping your passport (and um, emptying your wallet building your stash) as you go! And if you happen to be in LA and on this particular yarn crawl, be sure to stop by the Yarnover Truck!

The awesome ladies who own it are hosting a trunk show of my patterns, so you can see them in person. You can buy my patterns directly from the truck and they’ll hook you up with great yarns to use, too! I sure hope I get to visit the Yarnover Truck myself one day, it is such a fun idea. Be sure to check their Yarn Crawl Page to see where they’ll be each day. If you do go, please snap a pic and send it to me, I’d love to see it!
Another place that’s now selling my patterns is Webs (yarn.com). Even better, to kick it off they are doing a crochet-along of my Sugar Sparkles Shawlette. The crochet-along includes some great videos that will help you learn some of the techniques needed to complete the shawl, including choosing and working with beads. Be sure to check it out and then add your photos to Ravelry so we can all see.
Here are direct links to Week 1 and Week 2. And don’t worry, you can work at your own pace, so you’re not behind!
Happy crocheting!
