Just wanted to keep you all updated on forthcoming stuff….

I’ll be designing a piece for Romi’s Lace and Shawl Pin Club. The club itself has a great ala cart subscription. You can choose how many shipments you’d like, what metal you’d like for the pin, yarn content and color family, or you can go the traditional way and let Romi pick what color she thinks is best and send it to you with yarn, pin and pattern. Her pins are always lovely and well made. I own 3 or 4 of them myself.

Romi is running a promotional special as well. If you sign up by November 1st she’ll send you a surprise extra, but club sign-ups are open until December 15th.

I’ll also be doing the Shakespeare in Lace club again with Wooly Wonka. It was great fun this year when I did Desdemona and for the 2010 club I’ll be doing a lace piece inspired by the character of Ophelia from Hamlet. All the colorways in the series will be solid or semi-solid kettle dyed shades. Anne will be opening up the club to previous club members FIRST through the Ravelry Board early in November, and then later in November she will open any leftover slots to new signups through her Etsy Shop. You can keep posted on the Ravelry Board.

Both of the patterns will be available separately after a few months, so if you can’t do the subscription club, you’ll still be able to purchase the pattern itself later.
