I have moved over to A wee bit bigger site. Come on over and say hello!
Madelinetosh :: Has a New Blog
I have really had fun putting together this new space.
And for those of you who have never had an affair with wordpress! I highly suggest you give it a go.
I heart wordpress!

Trunk Show!
What: Madtosh Trunk Show
When: Saturday, November 10th, 2007 from 10am to 12pm or later
Where: Jenning Street Yarns in Fort Worth, Texas (in a fabulous historic building no less)
Why: because yarn is a necessary and positive addiction? no?
We will be bringing boo-koos of yarn along with the Candy Cane Knee Sock kits and the Chrismukkuh knee socks that I just cannot seem to make fast enough!
Plus, a few of the new colorways for the Winter line will make their debut as well.
Can you say Pop-Rocks, Citrus and Tomato three times in a row really fast?
You can't! Well, neither can I.
By the way!!!!!!!!
Question for each and everyone!
What COLOR would you like to see added to the Winter line?
And has everyone already seen this sock pattern because it is new news to me? But then again I am always so far behind the curve I am usually no where near it, something akin to being at the end of the line where the curve begins.
I am smitten with MimKnits, Eleanora Socks pattern, the historical aspect of the pattern, is very intriguing. The interesting part is I actually purchased a post card of this portrait of Eleanora at the Uffizi in Florence because I was so intrigued by her fingers and the way she carried herself in the portrait. Funny what a small/big world this is.
Count me in on this pattern.
We have been busy bee's over here preparing for this show!
Event: Madelinetosh Trunk Show
Place: The Shabby Sheep in Uptown Dallas, Texas
Date: Saturday, September 29th
Time: 10:00 am to 2:00 pm or whenever we run out of yarn.
Come by and say hi!
