Pure Wool: A Guide to Using Single-Breed Yarns is not a typically beautiful book. Some books are like girls who are all dressed up for the London season, curled and powdered and full of frills and gorgeous glossy pictures.

Isn’t that Special…?
History on Two Needles is moving along VERY well, amazingly well, and I’m astounded at how the outpouring of support (financial and moral) from the Kickstarter was able to kick ME in the butt and get this thing finished!
