Rovings coming soon!

I'm happy to announce that Cherry Tart will soon start carrying handdyed rovings. Super fine Australian merino and beautiful Falkland roving will be available at the August 5th stocking of Growing Up Green. Now you can spin your favorite Cherry Tart colorway however you like :) Pictures coming soon!

I just wanted to share a pic of a few orders that shipped out recently :)

I'm busy working on a few things for the big Spring Fling stocking at the congo, where I'm really excited to be debuting my original maryjanes baby booties crochet pattern for sale. I'm also having a Free For Shipping lottery for a pair of pink camo maryjanes, so don't miss out! See you on Wednesday the 18th!

Isabelle custom yarn

Here are a few pics of the yarn that resulted from my latest custom slot...4oz of squishy goodness :)



There are three sets of roving dyed for the March 4th stocking, and one of them is already in progress. Two of them are completely new colorways! Also, I'm planning on stocking the pattern for my original maryjanes baby booties at the March 18th stocking in pdf format. I hope to see lots of little Cherry Tart booties on teeny feet soon!

Working on customs...

Kelly's custom is coming along great...4 skeins down! The trim for Megan's order was dyed today, and should be spun up in time to go out on Saturday if all goes well. I also dyed around 6 ounces of the Pacific colorway while I had the dyepots going today, so hopefully that will be finished in time for the next stocking.

My daughter has been ill this week, so I apologize if there winds up being a delay in anyone's order. So far I've been able to get my work done during naps, and I'm hoping that will continue until she's well! Thanks so much for all of your support...Cherry Tart is back with a bang, and I can't wait to offer up more woolly goodness soon!

Cherry Tart is back in business!

Sorry for the loooong delay! I was really hoping to be back to spinning long before now, but this pregnancy really took a toll on me in the first trimester and caused me to fall behind in many areas of my life. Fortunately, I'm feeling great now and ready to feel my feet at the pedals again. Look for new skeins of Cherry Tart yarn at the next stocking of Growing Up Green. More details and previews soon!

Kiersten, you're up!

The new wool order will be here today, thank goodness! I've been spinning lots of wool/mohair blend for Wednesday's stocking while waiting for the straight wool to arrive, so there should be plenty of inventory coming up. I have some new colors for fall :) I hope to have some previews up tomorrow.

Today I will be starting on Kiersten's custom in the Elliot colorway, so it should be complete by stocking day. I plan on having another set of Ella yarn available this stocking as well, and hopefully another Elliot set.

Still spinning away!

I haven't been so great about updating this blog lately...school started back, so I'm working part time out of the home and still working furiously to dye and spin as much as possible. If my blog is behind it's because I'm working on your customs...I promise!

I'm really excited about a new fiber order that should be arriving at the end of next week. I'll have some super-fine merino available, as well as some other 100% wool roving. There are a couple of new things I'm working on, both for customs and for the next Growing Up Green stocking. Our Elephant Collab was a hit, so I can't wait for everyone to see what we're working on next!
