Here's the main page link.

This is the main page, announcing the sale. The Nut Hut isn't listed on that page (they're showing Romance, Mystery, and SF), but if you click on Browse Now, and look for the title, you'll find it. And you'll find it faster if you search titles Z-A.

Here's the sale page

And here's the direct link to The Nut Hut:

I'm very proud of this book, and thrilled for it to be included in this promotion.

DK and Worsted Weight Destashing

Yeah, I know, it's boring... but this is American Idol season, and I'm about worded out from that no matter what. I've broken into the DK and Worsted weight yarns in the Great 2014 Destash. I listed a bunch today on eBay- Noro, Shi Bui, Classic Elite and others, wool, wool blend, alpaca, mohair blend. All pretty stuff, the usual stuff applies (free shipping in the US).

None of these are Grab Bag Sets (which are great fun to put together, and sell like hotcakes)- all are full skeins or balls, all new yarns. When I get to the heavier Grab Bag stuff, they'll each be at least 150 gr (enough to knit a pair of heavier socks). But first, I want to work through a bunch of full skeins (I still have at least a box of bulky yarns).

So, please look these over if you're of a mind to. Here's one listing, and you can get to the rest from there.

Destash Sale!

I've mentioned, here and there, that I am on a Yarn Moratorium, that I will buy (almost) no new yarn until I use up a significant portion of that which I have on hand. It's been about 3 years and I've stuck to that vow pretty well, and... the yarn levels have barely changed. So I decided to speed things up a bit.

Over the next several weeks, I'll be listing yarn lots for sale on eBay. Most of them will be Buy-it-Now, and most will have free shipping, and most will be listed for US bidders only (though if you see one you really want and you're out of the US, let me know- shipping will be extra).

I listed 17 auctions for discontinued Rowanspun 4 ply yarn yesterday, in 17 different colors, lots varying from 11 skeins, to 1, each can be purchased individually or in lots of whatever number you like. Within an hour, 9 of the colors had sold out. But that means there are still many available, including these (at the time of uploading this post, the auctions were all still up and running):

Multiple skeins of each color are listed. At one time, I thought I would put up kits with my original patterns. That never happened. It's lovely lovely lovely yarn, but I simply will not use it.

Here's a link to one of the auctions, and from there you can see the rest. Or you can search out my username: kmtayloratnvcnet    (if that confuses you, it's an old e-mail address).

Thanks for looking, and I promise not to do this too often.
