In which we talk about how we are slackers because of all of the shows, workshops but mostly….Mat’s dragon voice!
We recap about the Touchable show, and the Woodstock Fleece Festival and get organized. We have done a new Muststashyo shop update and Cindy has updated her sock yarn page with the new Doll Feet lightweight fingering sock yarn.
What we are knitting: (links go to Ravelry)
Mat:
Sockhead Hat
An office knit-along of the Hat Fit for a Boyfriend
Cindy:
Blackrose Socks
Lacy Cabled Cape
A secret new pattern I am designing for my (soon to be posted) Candy Sprinkles yarn (maybe a sock club)
Shops we Gush About:
The Needle Emporium – Ancaster, ON – Cindy talks about Kauni and Dream in Color Knitosophy yarn (for those of you wondering what yarn these are)
Coffee Culture – mmm…decadent dessert for breakfast
Cindy does a little essay on the Moustache Cup. More information on this here: http://www.silvercollection.it/dictionarymustachecup.html
You Spin Me Right Round (What we are spinning..):
We were both spinning like fiends trying to get ready for shows for the holiday season so we have nothing much posted on the websites – but lots of batt making is happening. Mat is taking forever to finish a cormo yarn (which is actually very pretty). Cindy has been spinning art yarns, just finished teaching an art yarn workshop to a local guild and received a really lovely swap package from IdyllHands on Ravelry in the Fiddley Fiber Art Bitts Swap.
Moustache of the Day: Vincent Price
As promised – a link to The Hilarious House of Frightenstein - a 70s kid’s show that Price did great work on.
And…some interesting information about Coral Browne (Price’s wife): http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/non_fictionreviews/3669628/Coral-Browne-Sworn-into-stage-history.html
Consumer Meltdown: (Shops we Love!!)
- http://www.lamadesigns.com/ – Lama Designs – specifically we loved the Teapot with a Cold and the Teacup with a Chair.
- http://www.etsy.com/shop/mfmapparel – Minty Fresh Monster Apparel – great tshirts
- http://www.etsy.com/shop/littleangelsjewelry – Little Angel’s Jewelry – she’s donating $1 for every moustache themed item sold to the Movember foundation to help fight cancers that effect men. We specifically loved the Beautiful Woman necklace.
- Wooly Fabulous’ Flickr set of AMAZING Tree Art which led me to her shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/woollyfabulous – really lovely felted jewellery, embellishments and those wonderful felt sweater beads.
Movember stuff!
Mat talks about one of his favourite bloggers – The Fat Cyclist – who is participated in Movember by growing an awesome moustache and creating a Fat Cyclist team – so join up!

Mike (recognize him from the rap in the theme song?) does a review of the film La Moustache. He will soon have his own podcast, but we aren’t allowed to talk about it yet. If you haven’t watched the film yet, pick up a copy – it’s a good one!
