Day 17 No verifiable member of the Knit Magazine (soon to be Yarnwise Magazine) Lace Club has received the last shipment of yarn.

Print subscribers to Knit Magazine (soon to be Yarnwise) are now waiting for their Issue 49 to arrive in the mail after a .pdf of Issue 49, several issues of Knit Magazine and other ACM publications were briefly and mysteriously freely available on the Internet this week.

Indodragonfly is a Canadian indie hand dyed yarn company. First and foremost, we dye amazing multi-tonal, rich colours…but we also have fun naming our colours, taking inspiration from pop culture sometimes, but mostly just our crazy brains at work. Buffy, Dr. Who, the Muppets, customers who tell us weird things about themselves…no one is safe. The colourways are great and their names will keep you scrolling. See the Ravelry group here.

Theressa Silver (Argentgal on Ravelry) is a wonderfully talented knit designer. I was wowed by her Isambard Corset last year. And had planned to knit the Isambard Corset after finishing the Lady Kina. Then I discovered she had not and still has not been paid for the publication of the pattern by KAL or ACM. Isambard Corset is available for sale on Ravelry. There are still 14 days left to help her raise the money for the production of her book Hat Couture: Millinery Style Hats to Knit. This book is going to be the highlight of my summer.

In addition to hand dyed yarn, undyed yarn and fabulous kits, Violet Green has really clever patterns and they are free. Check out Cat on a Wall Mittens.

 The Knitting Goddess sells her hand-dyed yarns, runs highly-rated sock and mini skein clubs, and sells gifts and accessories.

Lastly, Toupie

He looks so wise and civil here. I awoke Thursday morning to find all the toys were missing from the table and the finished paper towel roll that I'd left in a chair was now in the bathroom. I think placing a camera trap somewhere in the apartment is the only way I'll ever know what really goes on when I'm sleeping.
