My Patreon will launch in 1 week! I took all the results of the poll and I have hopefully created fun and appealing tiers. About my Patreon: I'm trying something new for the next 6-7 months. If it works, I'll continue, but if I end up not liking it, I'll stop it in September or October. I will be starting a monthly subscription membership on a new Patreon account. I will be posting the chapters of my current book ( Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7 ) so you can read ahead of when the ebook will be edited and published. My current plan is to post 1-2 chapters weekly. One reason I’m switching things up is that I want to get closer to my readers and build a tighter, more intimate community with you. You can comment on each chapter of my book, give a reaction, ask a question, or even correct mistakes. My books will become a dialogue with you. If you subscribe to my Patreon, you'll be charged monthly and have access to all the benefits for the tier you subscribe to. The

I got this luscious yarn at a yarn shop in Illinois and made socks for Cheryl Wyatt’s children. Here’s a pic. Isn’t this just the funnest colorway you’ve ever seen? I thought it was from Germany because of the foreign words, but it says made in Italy. It’s superwash wool, meaning you can wash it in the washer and dryer.
For you knitters out there, here’s the info from the skein:

I used to love knitting but now my fingers cramp after awhile.
I see you use a circular needle. I've never used one. I always used the 4 needle method.
I had heard that a really good circular needle makes a huge difference when you're knitting in the round, but the good ones were always too expensive for me to buy "just to try it." But then KnitPicks.com came out with wooden circular needles and the join is SO SMOOTH it's amazing! Now I knit primarily with circular needles as long as they're Knitpicks.com harmony needles. I hate knitting with Bates circulars or even the Clover bamboo circs, the join is just awful, it takes more time to move stitches over the join than to knit. KnitPicks.com is the way to go.
My Finnish grandmother taught me to knit when I was 12 yo so I knit the Continental way. Of course, I didn't realize this until I joined a knitting circle and wondered why every one else took their hand off the needle to whip the yarn around it while my hands never lost contact with the needles.
I saw you knitting at the ACFW conf and thought it was so neat. My daughter sits in church with us and does her beading. :-)
Thanks for the KnitPicks link. I'll have to check it out.
