love notes...

perfect timing...

love notes...

i've been teaching a lot the last few months, and in the last month my teaching schedule has been almost out of hand, 3 different institutions, mornings, afternoons and evenings, adults and children of all ages, large groups and one on ones. 

i'm burnt. 

this love note came at just the right time. 

kokeshi... update

the kokeshi show will be opening soon, and while this little guy has already been shipped off to his new/temporary home in California, I thought you'd enjoy a few more sneak peeks before the reveal on July 11th. 

enjoy!

getting ready for Artscape...

this Artscape will boast quite a few brand new products in the greenstarstudio line... i won't give them away all at once (you know, for suspense and all), but how about starting with an obvious one? 

yes, there will be brand new knitimals there, looking for a home and eager to make your acquaintance!

Congratulations!

Ramsey, of EveryDayPants, is the drawing winner, which means Spring, the knitimal will be headed to Chicago very soon.

But!
Guess what?
As a "random act of kindness" (which many of you have experienced before), all of you who made eligible purchases will be getting SOMETHING free in the mail soon too.

So, everyone wins!
Happy Monday.
