Temptation!

It's not easy being a wicked temptress. You just have to work so long and hard at it, and you have to confound the poor folks who think you're giving them good pics of upcoming yarn. Good thing I've devious, however, because I'm not giving anything away.

So for your delight and anticipation, here is a pic of some of the July yarn shipment. Betcha can't guess what the colorway is. Mwahahahaha!


Cackles as she creeps away. He he he.

Introducing Ruth of PennyRose Yarns

My name is Ruth, I live in New Jersey, and I'm a retired librarian with a new career: dyeing and selling yarn. This is my second year in business and I've enjoyed every minute of it. My shop is here on Etsy: http://fritzl.etsy.com

Color is how I express myself. When I go to a museum, I am caught first by the colors of a painting. I can almost taste color. So here I am, in this amazing new career. Retirement doesn't get any better than this: playing with color, knitting up my yarns, and then dyeing more. It is such a joy to take a palette of colors and then combine them in different ways to get new colors.

Here are some of the yarns I have dyed. You'll notice a lot of pastels. Someone on Ravelry called me the Pastel Queen, and I think that might be accurate.

I am so honored to be a part of the Fiber Baristas. What a group of professional, talented women! I hope you share our journey through our various states and countries.
