Get 'em while you can!

Needle cases by my father in law. $25 to me and I'll send you one right out - this includes regular first class postage in the U.S., international stuff I'll add shipping to it.

The light one, in Lilac, is spoken for (click to read the labels):


He's calling these his "American Hardwood" series, except for the laminated two on the left. I can vouch for how lovely they are -- I use my olivewood one, made for my Italian heritage, all the time.

So let me know. I'm also hoping our local yarn shop will carry them in the future. For now, it's a readingwhileknitting exclusive.

I love how he's got them labeled with where the wood is from. They're beautiful!

Me me me! Has Pecan been spoken for and do you take Paypal?

Gorgeous!

Delana said...

Oooooooo I must have the "Misc Dyed and Laminated Woods" with the turquouise color. I can paypal payment to you. delanaknits(at)gmail(dot)com

Those are beautiful! I wish you the best getting them placed with your LYS; at least 2 of the LYSes here in Austin sell needle case/keyrings like those made by a local artisan and they seem to sell pretty well!

Oh, if it's not gone, I MUST have the Shiro Plum. Just a little bit of home to carry with me!

This is Turtlegirl's fault, but ... My first choice is the Pecan Heartwood burl, but that appears to be spoken for :-( My favorite shape is Cristi's Lilac, so if it's still up for grabs I'd like to request the Maple burl? Email is dputiger93-at-yahoo. I can paypal!

I want the dark walnut one! (Turtlegirl makes holes in my pockets when she posts this type of stuff....) I do paypal, too. rosigarmendia@gmail.com

Is the maple burl one still available?
LOVE them.

Stefaneener said...

Nope, it's spoken for, two comments up! I still have (I think) the Cherry and the laminated one. But -- I have a promise of a dozen more.

The simpler shape of the lilac and light woods of the lilac and maple were my favs. Please feel free to email me when you have more - I would love to buy one. sarah_sturtevant@hotmail.com

Please tell your father in law my dad turns spindles, and I really appreciate the work that went into the needle cases. :)

Javajem said...

Is the Lilac still available? If not - what about the Amer Black Walnut? I have paypal too - just let me know.

Zonda said...

Those are gorgeous! Could you email me when the next shipment comes in, cause I'm thinking there are not left. Thanks!

Marisol said...

Hello, I just read about these on turtlegirl's blog. Do you have anymore available? If not in the near future? Do we just look on your blog for additional ones?

madison t said...

hey--turtlegirl is advertising for you. i'd like to say: i LOVE the three on the left. actually they are all really gorgeous. i'm thinking if these go into production, you could get featured in knitty's "cool stuff" section. it's just that sort of thing.

Darx said...

Oh, Maple Burl, I am glad you've already found a good home, but I wish you had wanted to come to me. Please definitely keep us posted when more are available. Turtlegirl sent me :)

Aunt Kathy said...

Turtle Girl sent me too. Now as soon as I find $25 I'll be back. Those are gorgeous, Your dad does great work.

Are you on Ravelry?

Stefaneener said...

They're all gone except for the laminated one on the left.

More coming!

yarn4kalei said...

Turtle Girl sent me too! I will keep checking back to see when you have more. Definitely count me in on buying at least 1 maybe 2. Do you have a rough idea of when the next batch will be ready? Thanks!

Bad Amy said...

Wow! I'll keep an eye on these. :) (Turtlegirl link sent me)

Catherine said...
