First Four Yarns Up and ONE WEEK ONLY SPECIAL! GET ONE YARN AT 50% OFF!!!



"BATTY FOR PURPLE PUGS" Art Yarn,
50% off THIS WEEK ONLY with purchase
of any other yarn in the shop!

Greetings One & All...

It is with a great sigh of relief that things start picking up in the shop. There are now 7 "Spinner's Batts", and the first four "Spindle Spun Art Yarns" are now up in the shop, another one is currently on the spindle, and there will be one or 2 more up in the shop this week. After several more yarns are finished and put in the shop I will begin to work on Wearable Art pieces, a great love of mine. 

Because one of my main goals when starting this shop was to make money so that I could send, with every sale in the shop, 20% of the sale to Mid-Atlantic Pug Rescue, and things started off slowly because just as I was beginning I took a fall with a glass in my hand and cut it up badly and spent weeks in stitches and then allowing the hand to heal, and then 3 weeks into finally working on making the goods for the shop I lost my first little pug, wee little Babsie, things just started, well, slow. In an effort to get things moving I am offering, this week only, the Batty For Purple Pugs yarn seen at the top (you saw many pictures of this yarn being created in the last entry written by Sampson...) 50 % off with the purchase of any other yarn in the shop. I am most anxious to start sending money to the rescue and Coco thought this might help....



"BUY YARN. HELP PUGS..."

Coco is a pug of few words. After she uttered the above she decided it was time for a nap. Coco loses her face when she takes a nap...



Coco, dreaming... "Buy yarn, help pugs..."

I think that might get her an extra treat. It was a good idea.

In the next couple of days you will see the newest yarn, still on the spindle, "The Garden In Springtime," a medley of greens, with blue, purple, a dash of pink and anything else is possible at this point! as soon as it is finished. I think you will love this one. It was Harvey's idea. Getting Harvey to help is really something so we are very proud to be offering this one in honor of Harvey...



"It's not true that I don't help. I'm so depressed,
my honor has been besmirched... heavy sigh..."

Poor Harvey. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Well, I'll stop here so I can get back to spinning. Thanks for stopping in and we'll see you again soon...

Maitri, mother to a legion of pugs (Or maybe it just seems like a legion...)

  2. Thank you Allison! You'd be cracking me up except I'm too busy wanting to buy everything in YOUR etsy shop! :o) And thank you about the yarn. One has to feed the pugs somehow!

    Sampson, Coco and Harvey all send sloppy puggery kisses... (Get out a towel!)

    Hugs,

    Maitri
