Enjoy handmade holidays with 20% off thru December

It's that time again, and I want to thank everyone who has supported my work in the crafty arts! It's one thing to love the craft, but it's a whole other joy to have wonderful people like you to share it with ;D
So this holiday season I'm offering everyone 20% off everything in both my etsy and ravelry shops. That includes patterns, newly added handspun kits, and even completed dolls while they last! If you're a Ravelry shopper, no coupon codes needed, just add items to your cart and the discount will be applied at checkout. If you're using Etsy, enter coupon code "DEC20" to receive the discount.

Happy holidays, joyous new year, and thanks again!
Dawn.

Preview my new hand spun doll kits (coming soon!)

Looking to create a handmade heirloom for someone special? Or maybe a unique gift for the crafter in your life?
This holiday season I'll be offering a few very special kits! Like previous kits, these will feature all my favorite supplies: premium cotton fabrics, hand made glass eyes, ribbons, buttons, and other accessories. But these kits are even more valuable, because they also feature my very own hand spun wool!

The wool is a combination of fibers, dyed by me, and then carded together to create a rich deep color that you can't get from hand painting alone. I've worked hard to bring together some of the most popular color combinations based on past requests, and taken the time to create new pairings that I think you'll love.

You're getting a sneak peak into my process here, as I match my pre-carded fibers to the fabric. Once the fibers are carded, I spin them into a worsted spun(smooth), worsted weight single (100g as most of my patterns call for).

In my opinion, a plush single yarn(vs plied yarns) makes the best doll. And with this kit you'll be able to make your choice of bunny, kitty, or bear ;D

Murray (the merry) reindeer



It's Christmas time, and I have an early gift for you...
As promised, our December CAL is a brand new reindeer pattern! You can download the pattern here, or on ravelry, and then join the ravelry group to share your progress.

Thanks for your support this year, and happy holidays to all!
