Imagination, song, the soaring spirit.
Separate them to know them as aspects of the whole,
Join them to know the mystery of totality.

This weekend was a busy one. Serious SPA preparation is underway now.
I did decide to go with "TWR Soap Company" for soap and hand cream labels. Hopefully no more rabbit questions. It's been a lot of fun making these soaps and creating the labels.
Anyone who knows me, knows that my brain is always busy and I am not the most organized person. Time management is always a challenge, as I am so easily distracted. When I am about to embark on a big project however, I need to totally clean my space from top to bottom, so the only clutter is the never ending clutter in my brain..LOL.
The shop both up and down is now sparking clean and everything is ready to be cranked out for SPA. I love getting ready for a show...I get to play with color and come up with some new ones. I have a new DK weight yarn I am excited about and some lovely fiber for spinning and of course the soaps/cream, along with some of the usual suspects that I bring to a show.
I did manage to squeeze in a little knitting time this weekend as well. Of course most of it was during the disappointing football game for those of us who live in New England, but it was still quality knitting time inspite of the loss.
The purple yarn behind the mitt is going to becomes this shawl....love it!
I am hoping to finish it for SPA, but you know me...very.slow.knitter. Who knows, maybe I will get lucky. :-)
I hope you had a wonderful weekend too!
Love your soaps!
What is the mitt pattern? It's lovely.

Scanning my Rav queue to see what to make with your lovely new DK weight. Maybe another slouchy hat. :-) Love your photos and how you've packaged the soap! Wonderful presentation as always my friend.

I wish it wasn't such a long drive! Everything looks lovely!

Clutter does the same thing to me and I love a clean, open space when it comes time to make, do something. I've also painted everything WHITE. Wish I could be at SPA!!!

I can't wait to shop at your booth at SPA - all those pretty soaps and yarns!! I love the mitts and I'm not sure whether to thank you or curse you for the link to that Winter Bloom shawl!

Is the greenish shawl/scarf in the foreground one of your patterns? I have to have one!

As a Broncos fan, I can verify that the Ravens are just plain evil! I have no geographic connection or super fan connection, but have liked that Pats ever since winning approximately $600 on a $10 investment in an office pool. Your Spa stuff looks gorgeous. Here's to the rabbits!

Love how pretty the soaps look! And that shawl is cute, I had to add it to my queue!

You know we're all going to ask you rabbit questions now, right?
