It's August - let's have a sale!

Tip of the Week
I'm currently working on a project using 2 balls of Noro Silk Garden Sock. I'm striping them together with a simple slip stitch. But guess what, before too long I couldn't tell which was Color A and which was B. After all, they were both orange!

 I just marked each one "A" and "B" - and no more guesswork!

August Sale
The month of August can be a quiet time. Many people go on vacation, businesses postpone projects, and in general decisions get delayed until everyone is back at work.
So, it's a great time for a sale.
With code AUG50  you get 50% off any of the patterns in my Ravelry store. 
Yes, summer patterns, winter patterns; sweaters, accessories, all of them!
But act quickly, the sale lasts just 4 days, Aug 1-4.  

Next post will be a book review and a giveaway, so watch this space!

FYI: Big Sale at Interweave - $25 off.

I'm sharing this as a public Service. I am a master enabler, after all ;-)
