Eye Candy Friday

February 5, 2010 By Carole

Yummy Sock Yarn resized for blog

Remember that yarn crawl from a couple of weeks ago? Turns out I won the door prize at The Wool Basket that day. It’s a fabulous skein of Schaefer Nichole. Yummy.

Have a yummy weekend.

    I am passing on this plea in the hope that some yarn-aholics will feel generous.
    Hi All:

    I am in desperate need of crochet hooks and/or yarn for a huge crochet club at school. I started it yesterday, and even with 27 hooks and skeins of yarn, I have kids waiting. I cannot invest any more (bank-o-me is already strained), so if you have any yarn especially and possibly crochet hooks, please let me know. Am willing to drive as far as Huntington and into Manhattan. Or, you can mail.

    Thanks!!!!

    Peace, Caren ckohviola@yahoo.com

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
