Miracles - and an update....

Turns out miracles do happen.

I would have preferred for our first female Prime Minister to be voted in on a landslide victory, but hey - beggars can't be choosers....

Here's hoping the next three years mark a rare period of Politicians Keeping Their Shit Together. Fingers crossed.

But away from politics, there's a wee shop update going up tomorrow at noon:

Shop Update

The update is scheduled for Tues 14th September at 12 midday here in Australia. (ACST)

That translates to Mon 13th September at 10.30pm EDT and 7.30pm PDT in the States….

You can see a preview of the coming yarns in my shop now….all the prices are in Australian dollars.

Hyena In Petticoats @ BigCartel

I look forward to seeing all of you there!

Once this update is sold and posted, I will be putting in an order for more yarn, and embarking on a new adventure - self striping! I look forward to having some stripy goodness ready for you all very soon…. Now that the weather is warming up here, the dyeing process becomes a million times easier - perhaps the next update will be a more timely one.....

Now, I just have to figure out how to wind a skein twenty feet long........ ha.

ps: I see that Bloglines is closing down - does anyone have any other Feed Reader ideas? I'm a little stressed out that I'm going to lose all my blogs, and I've already decided that I hate Google reader..... help! xxx

Give Google Reader another shot! If you make use of it's extras like the 'Next' and 'Subscribe' buttons then it is great!

hmmm, well i was going to suggest Google Reader!! I just moved over all my Bloglines subscritions yesterday and it went absolutely smoothly and I feel like i've had a religious conversion, lol. I love the folders and tagging and and ability to read all my new blog entries regardless of folder/category without having to scroll and click through blog names. I had tried to use GR once before and didn't like it, but I have to admit to being a bit in love right now ;o)

And the new yarns look utterly gorgeous! That yellow - mmmmmmm!

Sorry, I was going to suggest Google Reader! I've been using it for years... I hate having to change my "thingies" (settings on the computer, cupboards in the kitchen, sides on the bed, etc...), but you do get used to it after a while :)

I have never used Bloglines. I just use the subscriber thing in my blogger dashboard to follow all my blogs. Is that the same? I hate google reader too. It bugs me!

I'll be stalking your comments to see if anyone has a good replacement for bloglines. I've moved all mine to google reader just in case but like you I really don't like it

I did a trial run with Google Reader on a few of my blogs a few months back and never grew to like it.

So I spent last weekend moving all my RSS feeds into Outlook Express and reordering them into the folders I used to have in Bloglines and I have to say I love the ability to read emails and blogs in the same place, delete posts I don't want to keep and mark as unread those I do...
