Sheep Bum Yarn is two years old! Oh my goodness it has been a very educational, and bumpy journey so far, and I have met many wonderful people :) I want to thank everyone for your support. If it weren’t for you my small business wouldn’t grow.

It is an absolute dream to have come this far, and I’m still loving it! I’m exceptionally grateful to have my boyfriend, Devin, who has gone out of his way to help me get started, set-up my table at craft shows, and continue through my journey.

THANK YOU!!!

The knowledge of knitting is very essential. Always keep a set of needles with you! You never know when a zombie apocalypse will occur. (Photo from The Walking Dead comic).

The Jogless Stripe Method

Tue, 15 Nov 2011 20:56:37 -0500

~ Knitting Jogless stripes in the round to avoid a jag when you change colors.~

* On color change rounds, change colors by knitting the first stitch of the new color
as you usually would. Then, knit the rest of the stitches to the end of the round.

* On the next round, slip the first stitch of the new color, then knit the rest of the
stitches.

* On every following round, knit every stitch as usual.

Went to Topsail Island, NC for vacation from Oct. 1 - 8. The week went by too quickly! The sun was out everyday, the temperature was just right, and the stars shined so bright and clear. When I wasn’t putting my feet in the ocean I got a little bit of knitting done. Came back home to cloudy, rainy Fall weather in Pennsylvania.
