I was going to write about, and started writing about, how I feel after not paying attention to who I was buying from on eBay and discovering that the one fiber vendor that has not once but twice previously screwed up on my orders so bad that I will never ever purchase anything through his [...]

Covered this not being dead thing on Pointysticks. I’ll order some spinning fiber in the next couple of weeks, then I’ll dust off the wheel and get back to the sexy sexy yarn that is the raison d’être for this blog. I’ve had a lot of frustrations through the past year, and that translated to [...]

Adsense ads are gone. I’m done with them until the kids at Google realize they are breaking that whole not being evil thing into little tiny bits of irony and cold harsh reality. This is the latest Google Adsense notice. Its one thing to look at my blog and say “Oh hey, there are references [...]

but I was one of the blogs that had iframes inserted into and was deemed dangerous by Google. I’m safe now. Blog updated to the latest version, bad posts cleaned or kills and nasty files deleted. So now I need to check over my other blogs. Fortunately all it did was was insert code to [...]

I was trying to change some things and I ended up deleting my last couple of posts and the comments that went with them along with the rest of my blog. It’s okay because I’ve been fairly faithful in making backups so I was able to restore most of it. There are days when I’m [...]

Dear eBay, I know we’ve been together for a long time. I bought my first llama fibers with you. I found “IT” on with you. But… well this is hard for me to say. Lately you’ve sucked eggs, I find myself giving more and you giving less. I’ve tried to go with your recommendations for [...]

Tied into things that I quantify there is worth, price, cost, usefulness. Pretty much in that order as it relates to handcrafts and art. I noticed while listening to Lime and Violet that while they raved over yarns that the word “cheap” came up again and again. This is in no way a criticism against [...]

I’ve been spinning alpaca, some lovely rusty brown and some silvery gray that I ordered from Little Barn, the delivery time from Little Barn was speedy, arriving prior to Christmas, which gives me reason to think that my first experience with them was just a hiccup. For that, I’m really glad because their prices and [...]
