All kinds of updates

Filed in blog posts

First things first: I’ve decided to open up a one month membership for the Rock Your Socks Off club. There is now an option at the bottom of the club page that offers a buy now option for 1 month. This is how I figure it will work. If you purchase the 1 month membership any time before the 10th of any given month you will receive that months box, if you purchase it after the 15th, you’ll get the next months box. I’d like this club to be as accessible as possible. Which is why I’m also going to allow the 3 month memberships to be on a rolling basis as well, so if you buy the 3 month membership the same thing will happen, if you get it before the 10th you’re membership will start with that month, if its after it’ll start with the following month. This means that you do not need to wait until May to sign up for the next 3 month stint. If in April you want to get a 3 month member ship you’ll get May –July for example.

The caveat to this is that if at some point I get too many people for any given month I will close the sign ups for that month and re-open them again the following month or which ever month isn’t full. At this point because I am a one woman operation the most I can safely say I can handle at once is 25-30 participants. I don’t want the quality of the color ways, dye jobs or goodies in each box to go down because I’ve over extended myself. At this point though I don’t for see this being a problem any time in the near future. I’m happy with my small group of dedicated participants and I’m hoping we can carve out a little community of music/yarn nerds together.

I’d love to hear what people would like to receive as ‘goodies’ in the shipments. If you have any ideas please comment here so I can start looking into them. I’ve got everything I need for the first shipment to go out including the boxes they ship in, so I feel pretty good that I’m not going to be rushing at the last minute and I’m trying to get everything together for months 2-4 as well so I can stay ahead several months at a time.

Okay, so we’ve got another video for you as well:

Laura finished her blanket, I show off my handspun mug wrap and I get cut off when I tried to scream ‘Mothballs!’ at the end. It’s a reference to my wonderful boyfriend Mike who was recently on Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

Here’s the finished mug cozy:

There will be a detailed blog post coming soon about the natural dye baths I’ve mixed up, how much I hate picking pieces of blueberries out of merino and more follies in handspinning. Tonight I’ll be attending a local meetup for Vegas bloggers called Beer ‘n Blog, so I’m sure I’ll have something to say about that as well.
