I’d just like to take a moment to share some of my favorite images from the recent TurtleDove Trunk Show, for those of you who live out of town, or just missed out.  It was an amazing day!  

Everyone loves Erica, especially when she shows up with mountains of gorgeous hand-dyed perfection.

Doors opened at 11 AM, and by noon, I’d estimate that about half the yarn had been spoken for.  Erica says that she came in with 200 skeins of Alouette Lulu, Pigeon, Starling, Magpie, Rarebird Lace, Myna Lace, Flicker, and many more, and I’d estimate that she probably only took a very small fraction of that home with her at the end of the day.  

I think we have to call this the Summer Edition, since she says that she plans to try and do this again later in the year, and on a recurring (seasonal, hopefully!) basis.  

So, what did you guys think?  Anything you didn’t get a chance to grab?  Anything you want to rave, or to brag about?  Anything you’d like Erica to bring back for another pass at a later date?

Can I just take a moment to brag about my acquisition?  I owe a very special knitter a bunch of thanks for being so generous as to part with it so that I could scoop it up with my grabby little paws.

 Hoping you guys had as much fun as me,

Emily

We are very pleased to announce that Erica and Pat Puckett’s second-most gorgeous creation has arrived at the Bully!    Not quite as cute as Ms. Mercy, the delectable Turtledove yarns are currently available in the store.  For those of you who couldn’t make it in to the trunk show a couple of weeks ago, this represents an opportunity to stop by and see the colors and squish the yarn in person. 

We are currently offering both the Pigeon and Magpie lines of sock yarns, which are beautifully hand-dyed in limited-edition colorways.  Superwash wool, sturdily reinforced by nylon, and more colors than you can healthily shake a stick at!
