We have been waiting anxiously for our Brown Sheep restocks and today Walter our lovely and overworked UPS Guy brought us two BIG boxes filled with Lambs Pride Worsted and Bulky as well as Cotton Fleece. Good news and bad news. Many colors are now here; although we were backordered in both bulky and worsted in Black. So we got on the phone to our pal Judith at Design Source who had plenty of black Manos in stock; she is sending twenty out IMMEDIATELY!! So those of you who are aching to make those black felted bags, hang in there. We should have the Manos by the end of the week.

Also a new addition to the WoolWinders family is here. Lew felt the need last week to have someone here who wouldn't give him any back talk, so he bought a mannequin on EBay. She arrived today and we will have her set up tomorrow or Wednesday. But she will need a name. So we have a glass bowl set up on the table. Name our mannequin. If your name is chosen by our staff, you will receive a $20 gift certificate!

I vote "Dolly" in honor of the cloned sheep. After all, if it weren't for all the lovely sheep (and alpacas, etc) who provide us with lovely yarn, where would we be?
If that's too controversial, how about "Baa-bara"?
