Fancy Tiger in Fiber Arts magazine!

Handspun, locally produced Alpaca yarn!

We've just received a new, locally produced yarn! Peg Woods of Pinon Wood Fibers raises all her own alpacas and spins their fiber into luscious yarn. Most of the yarns are plied with beaded thread, and some are done in a Barber Pole fashion. All of them are super cute. The best part are the labels, which let you know exactly who provided his/her fiber for your knitting enjoyment. Ellana is our favorite - what a cute little button of a face!

The Cutest and Most Teeninesiest Buttons of All Time!

I just found the cutest and most teeninesiest buttons of all time. These three little ones were nestled in the bottom of a recent batch of vintage buttons we acquired, huddling together under the big buttons and hiding with the dusty bits of string and mismatched rusty snaps. I almost ate them they are so cute.


Perhaps if you were going to make a winter coat for your pet finch or mouse this fancy button would be perfect!
