Milestones and more yarn

Good Monday to you all! If you're on my side of the Atlantic, good morning - if elsewhere, good afternoon and evening :) My husband and his dad repurposed a lovely display cabinet (originally for guns) for my yarn and as I was setting it up yesterday, I realized some of my yarn hadn't been listed in my Etsy shop, so today is hooray for new listings! You can check them out here: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ThereandBackYarn I'm particularly fond of that bright chunky green; when I was a kid, it was a Sunday treat when my grandparents would take us to Chicken Chef, a fantastic central Canadian fried chicken chain (for which I still have a massive soft spot!), and their kids' menu dessert was green Jell-o with whipped cream. I thought of that as I was dyeing this yarn, and I think it came out pretty spot on!

In addition, my first published pattern, Hunter's Orange, hit 500 downloads! I'm so pleased that 500 people have noticed and been interested in the pattern to download it, and there are even a few projects on Ravelry! Your support means so much to me - without it, I wouldn't be able to do all this fun yarn stuff - so I'm very thankful for everyone who takes an interest in my patterns and yarn :)
Well it wouldn't be a springtime blog post if I didn't make a snarky comment about the weather, so I guess I'd better fit that in before I go bring in MORE wood for our woodstove. Warm temps any time now!!
