I have 2 coops going on at the same time. Yikes. It wasn't supposed to work out that way but it did. The Cestari yarn showed up so I had to wind out nearly 100 skeins of that for the 2 coops. I'm still waiting on the Gaia and the Dharma blanks though. I have all the Cestari off the cones and into skeins ready to dye. Yesterday I did 10 main skeins and 7 trim skeins...all in Japanese Spectrum. My skin was a lovely shade of navy blue most of yesterday. Thank goodness for Reduran! Pictures to come in a bit. I just reskeined those so they are nice and pretty now. I'll keep updating as I progress.

On another note, my daughter Kelly and I decorate cakes too. I've been getting just as many orders for cakes lately as I have been yarn orders. I barely have a day off any more. I love decorating cakes though...no complaining here. We use almost 100% organic ingredients and my 15 year old daughter does the baking. She's going to be a culinary artist very soon. She truly has a gift and a passion for cooking and baking. This Monday we have a consultation with a woman who is ordering a wedding cake from us...our first wedding cake! I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Here is a link to my gallery and a picture of our prettiest cake we've done thus far:
