Taking a breather ~
By Sarah | April 29, 2008
Mr. Plucky planted some succulents this past summer and we managed to keep them alive all winter!
Call me crazy (actually, no need. I’m fully aware that I am one peculiar, issue laden gal), but you know your UFO’s are getting antsy when the start talking to you. Yesterday, I logged into Ravelry and I got a message from my No-Purl Monkey saying “Finish me. I’m pretty.” When the knits start talking back, that’s pretty serious. So, now that the first shipment of Plucky Classics are well on their way, I am going to put the feet up and knit. That should shut the knits up – I hope.
It’s that time again. Time to give away some tangled yarn to you intrepid detanglers out there. You know who you are. Leave me a comment as to why you find detangling yarn so intriguing and I will pick a number out of a hat and send two winners each a skein of yarn to untangle and do with what you will.
Happy Tuesday!
P.S. Guess what I am dyeing up this week?
Summer of Love. I get a lot of inquiries on this colorway and am finally at a spot where I can get a quantity of it dyed up. If you have a special interest, please contact me and I can be sure to put enough aside. The bases that will be dyed in this colorway will be the 80/10/10 MCN, 100% superwash merino and the 100% merino single ply.

I love untangling yarn – it is meditative, and I don’t have to worry that my children will mess it up.

Untangling yarn is the only way I can get my husband involved in my knitting other than him saying “oh that’s nice, baby” without every lifting his head from his computer. We have a two person system that works well for us.

I find detangling yarn to be intriguing, because there is definately a finish line. Many people reach a wall, and give up on it, or they just cut the yarn (Ouch!!). They say knitters have great patience. I’ll be patient detangling, while I am anxious to get those needles moving.
