<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span id="inserted8458" style="font-size: 16px;">Let’s kick off the weekend with a Friday Favorites post. Those that have been around know a few of my favorites, the color orange, hearts and fat fiber. Well the title of the blog is Confessions of a Yarnho so you know I love yarn. So imagine if you could, my sheer joy when I heard about the <a style="font-size: 16px; color: #e96f29;" href="http://www.thepluckyknitter.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Plucky Knitter</a> trunk show in NYC.

<h3>When I discovered Plucky</h3>
<p><span id="inserted1712" style="font-size: 16px;">Are you like me and saying well who is Plucky Knitter? I was the same way some years back. I kept seeing Plucktober as a hashtag on Instagram and I was like what is that? Well I did my research and yeah they are definitely one of my favorites. You all remember this picture right here don’t you? This is when I first experienced the decadence which is Plucky Yarn.</span></p>

This year marks the 10th year they have been blessing us with this fabulous yarn. On the website is says they have 38 different bases, that range from $19 to $74 bucks. The majority of their bases have cashmere blend (20 out of 38) and all the bases are hand dyed. They are a classic case of getting your money’s worth. The thing that is different with Plucky is they are not readily available, you have to wait for an update and you have to be quick on that buy button. This yarn sells out quickly and then you wait for it to be dyed and sent to you. I had to wait a few weeks to get mine the first time.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">Fast forward to the here and now and the trunk show at <a style="font-size: 16px;" href="https://www.annieandco.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span id="inserted8295" style="color: #e96f29;">Annie & CO</span>. </a>You still needed to be fast because those folks were serious about their yarn. The best part is you walk out with yarn in hand, no waiting. The bonus was getting to meet the ladies behind the company.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="inserted6306" style="font-size: 16px;">Who was supposed to tell me about the Ottlite? If you saw my last Facebook live (posted below) you know I am preparing to get my YouTube channel up and running again. My challenge thus far has been lighting, I need you all to be able to clearly see whatever I am trying to display. Insert the all mighty, the all powerful Ottlite. *cue the music*</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FGGmadeit%2Fvideos%2F1062308117214096%2F&show_text=0&width=400" width="400" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p> </p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">I was cruising YouTube looking at camera set up situations and this is where I found this amazing light source. We all know the best light is natural light, right? Well since I don’t have a set up where I can easily take advantage of the sunlight; operation get lights was born.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">Initially the price made me simply add it to my wish list on Amazon, because who is broke as a joke? That would be me! LOL unemployment sucks and has it’s benefits. Since I am always online searching I stumbled across a sale at Joann’s. The dual sided Ottlite was 60% off if you ordered online AND they gave a pick up in store option. They only had 3 in the store near me so I ran! <b style="font-size: 16px;">If you are interested I found it on Amazon for $49.99, which is half off..so click the pic below</b></p>
<p><b></b><br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/OttLite-D26008-Dual-Sided-Task-Lamp/dp/B00WRWH57K/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&qid=1490360109&sr=8-1&keywords=dual+sided+task+lamp&linkCode=li3&tag=ggma-20&linkId=1454aef30c5d138a90e4bf9410996a38" target="_blank"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=B00WRWH57K&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=ggma-20" border="0" /></a></p>
<h3><span id="inserted2607" style="color: #e96f29;">My Review<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; color: #e96f29;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=ggma-20&l=li3&o=1&a=B00WRWH57K" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /></span></h3>
<p> </p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">Can I say love at first light? Listen I plugged this baby in as soon as I got back in the house. One side is so bright that I may get another one, I just need a sponsor! hahahahahaha but seriously let’s talk about my latest favorite thing.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">The light is portable and lightweight, so moving it around is very easy. The natural daylight that it promotes is mind boggling. I never noticed the yellow hue in my pictures until I did a comparison. Look:</p>

<p> </p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">I also love that it’s dual sided and you can point the light in different directions. When I tell you this was good money spent. Let the filming and live streaming begin. I was considering getting a ring light (fancy stuff) but now that I have this light source I don’t need it. I am super pleased and this light is GG approved! hahahahahahaaa. Honestly I was putting different yarns under the light and fell in love all over again!</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px;">Then I went on their <strong><a style="font-size: 16px; color: #e96f29;" href="http://www.ottlite.com" target="_blank">website </a></strong>and they have all sorts of models. I am clearly late to the game, because it said for over 25 years, but I am here now!</p>

<p class="fontplugin_fontid_494_PRINC" style="font-size: 23px;">We are about to complete the first week of November which means the holidays are here! I had to run to the mall a few weeks back and Macy’s had the Christmas stuff out already. I was like, noooooo I am not ready! I mean at that point folks was still getting halloween costumes. Although, NOW, the holiday can be quite depressing for me, my Shelbey refuses to let me NOT have Christmas. Those first 2 years after my parents..yea NOPE! I quit Thanksgiving and Christmas and I am the Christmas queen normally…so no more dwelling for me, let’s get it on!</p>
<p class="fontplugin_fontid_494_PRINC" style="font-size: 23px;">I often hear this in relations to gifts for me “I don’t know nothing about no yarn gifts” hahahahahaha the fact that they care enough to want to get me something yarn related always warms my soul. I am quite sure other knitters have the same issue, so I gave birth to GGmadeit’s Favorite Things: A Gift Guide for the knitter in your life. You ready to see what is on my list? I will include links, if you click the picture it will take you a link to grab the gift right while you are reading this. You are welcome! LOL!</p>

<ol class="fontplugin_fontid_494_PRINC" style="font-size: 30px;">
<li style="font-size: 30px;"><strong style="font-size: 30px;">Yarn</strong> of course..but instead of trying to figure out which yarn your knitter likes give them a gift card to their favorite local yarn store. It doesn’t matter if the store online only this still works.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are things that I love, that I also forget about. LOL Today I want to share one of those said things, that being the screw-in leather closures from <a href="http://juldesigns.com/attach/">Jul Designs. </a></p>
<p>I finished my Touring Cape, woot woot!! A blog post coming as soon as it dries and I can take good pics, but the kit for this cape came with Jul closures. The mod loop leather closure and 2 pedestal buttons are included with the yarn to make the cape. This made me remember that I had some of these lovely closures in my stash. A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go hi ho the…wait I forgot the rest..but you know that song Bugs Bunny use to sing right? That! LOL I found them.</p>
<p>When I posted this pic last night, a few folks asked about the closure. I didn’t even think it was that visible, but wanted to blog about it so folks could see what the options were and get some because they are pretty awesome! <a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/photo-on-2-20-15-at-12-16-am.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1934" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/photo-on-2-20-15-at-12-16-am.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C417" alt="Photo on 2-20-15 at 12.16 AM" width="625" height="417" /></a>The Mod loop leather closure is pictured below. What I love about these closures is you can easily change the positioning on your garment because they simple screw on..no sewing baby!!! So you know I love them because, LAZY. As you can see they are very simple to attach, you simply remove the screws and the leather backs..position them onto the garment and replace the screw and POW! You just changed your handmade item from “oh that’s nice.” to “DAYUM you made that?!” and you can shake your head and say “yup, I sure did!” Hahahahahahahahahahaa</p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3967.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1931" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3967.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C469" alt="IMG_3967" width="625" height="469" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3968.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1932" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3968.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C469" alt="IMG_3968" width="625" height="469" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3972.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1935" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3972.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C833" alt="IMG_3972" width="625" height="833" /></a> <a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3973.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1936" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3973.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C469" alt="IMG_3973" width="625" height="469" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>The supple leather and rich colors will be the star of your latest handmade accessory. I promise, you see how it was hardly visible in the picture but folks noticed it? Oh yea, eye catching for sure. When I went on my seek and destroy mission I was pleased to find that I had quite a few in my button bag. I have 2 of the Venetian Hinge Closure (pictured below) I have one in each color, chocolate brown and aubergine.</p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3964.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1929" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3964.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C469" alt="IMG_3964" width="625" height="469" /></a>I also have the Florentine Hinge Leather closure, which was a part of a kit that I purchased at Rhinebeck last year. So yea, I truly love these things they are so versatile and down right stylish AND they have a few options to choose from, BONUS!</p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3971.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1937" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/img_3971.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C833" alt="IMG_3971" width="625" height="833" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Where can you get them? Well online naturally, but I have seen them in quite a few local yarn stores as well as at Vogue knitting Live and Stitches events. So keep and eye out, I am sure you find them on the ground. The price ranges from $6.50 to $31.00.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Knit on my fiber friends…knit on</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>the other day I posted a picture of yarn in all different colors and asked what color will I have trouble finding in your stash. The first response was orange and I was like <a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/img_0586.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" data-attachment-id="1164" data-permalink="https://ggmadeit.com/friday-favorites-the-color-orange/img_0586-jpg/" data-orig-file="https://i0.wp.com/ggmadeit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_0586.jpg?fit=232%2C225&ssl=1" data-orig-size="232,225" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="IMG_0586.JPG" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://i0.wp.com/ggmadeit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_0586.jpg?fit=232%2C225&ssl=1" data-large-file="https://i0.wp.com/ggmadeit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/img_0586.jpg?fit=232%2C225&ssl=1" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1164" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/img_0586.jpg?resize=232%2C225" alt="IMG_0586.JPG" width="232" height="225" /></a> because I have so much orange in my stash it’s not even funny. I absolutely love orange, the color, the scent and the fruit. It’s warm, bright and represents one of my favorite times of the year; Autumn. According to Wikipedia Orange is often associated with amusement, the unconventional, extroverts, fire, activity, danger, taste and aroma, basically me! Well not the danger part, wait you are always in danger of falling in love with me, so yea Orange is me!</p>
<p>When I look back at the big “firsts” in my knitting….you guessed it, they are orange. My <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/sweetdrk1/easy-folded-poncho">Easy folded poncho</a> by Churchmouse Yarns was made with Blue Sky Alpaca Melange and I have never, ever worn it without getting a compliment.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-4-15-36-pm.png"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1695" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-4-15-36-pm.png?resize=343%2C452" alt="Screen Shot 2015-01-23 at 4.15.36 PM" width="343" height="452" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">or my first attempt at Brioche in a pattern called <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/sweetdrk1/desiree">Desirรฉe</a>, I used Anzula For better or for worsted in the color called Canteloupe. This baby sold immediately!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-4-17-11-pm.png"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1696 aligncenter" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-4-17-11-pm.png?resize=447%2C332" alt="Screen Shot 2015-01-23 at 4.17.11 PM" width="447" height="332" /></a>I mean even my very first attempt at color work, omg I was so afraid and let that project sit for a minute. What color did I pick up? yup Orange, well it’s called Citrus from Madelinetosh pashmina, talking about super soft and luscious..OMG!!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/img_0021.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1692 aligncenter" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/img_0021.jpg?resize=480%2C640" alt="IMG_0021" width="480" height="640" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">My first Cardigan, that I proudly completed during my stay in the Philippines. The pattern is called Vivienne Cardigan and Wool and the Gang calls the color Vitamin C and it is absolutely gorgeous..look</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/img_0023.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1693" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/img_0023.jpg?w=625&resize=625%2C627" alt="IMG_0023" width="625" height="627" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">This morning when I got up and tripped over a bag of yarn, including yarn I just got from my weekend at VkLIVE and what fell out was ALL orange. I fell out laughing! The yarns in the pic above are as follows:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">~ top left corner Orange U Glad by <a href="http://www.brownsheep.com/yarns/burly-spun?view=category">Brown Sheep company’s Burly Spun</a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">~ bottom left corner this yarn doesn’t have a color name and it comes from Feederbrook Farm sold at <a href="http://stringyarns.com">String Yarns</a>(vklive purchase)</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">~ center Harvest Honey by <a href="http://www.fablefibers.com">Fable Fibers</a></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This will be quick and to the point. <strong>Bernat Mega Bulky Yarn </strong>I was in Michaels Craft Store to get…wait for it…Y A R N!! The Thick n Quick was on a 2fer sale, so yea I know I said I wasn’t buy anymore yarn…could you guys focus please? Thank you! OK, ok back to this chunky yumminess, it comes in 7 colors and I got 6. What? I know one of these post I said this was a judge free zone, so don’t be looking at me like that. Well is this better? Look at it!</p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2046.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-1336 size-thumbnail" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2046.jpg?w=113&resize=113%2C150" alt="IMG_2046" width="113" height="150" /></a><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2044.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-1335 size-thumbnail" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2044.jpg?w=113&resize=113%2C150" alt="IMG_2044" width="113" height="150" /></a><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2049.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-1337 size-thumbnail" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2049.jpg?w=113&resize=113%2C150" alt="IMG_2049" width="113" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>And now that you are no longer giving me that look, I will also share that I made 6 hats yesterday…get up, no fainting until you see them. LOL</p>
<p><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2053.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1338 aligncenter" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2053.jpg?w=300&resize=300%2C225" alt="IMG_2053" width="300" height="225" /></a>Guys, you know I must go get more right? They retail for $9.99 normally but were on sale for $6.99, the color I didn’t get was cream or off white…but I plan to grab it. I did this hat on my Lantern Moon US17s and they were flying off the needle. They didn’t have much of it left, so now I have to hit the other Michaels in my area…I didn’t see them in ACmoore so I assume they don’t carry the line.</p>
<p>Now back to the hats, I tried to make a pom pom and uh yea, NOPE..not so much. I need to practice, so because I used some of the yarn, the light grey hat came out a little short.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> <a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2083.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1340" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_2083.jpg?w=225&resize=225%2C300" alt="IMG_2083" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">The beauty in the batched attempt at a hat is this….I can keep it and wear it on the back of my head. Am I cute? I think so :p The full hat is deeper and covers more head space. Six hats in a day, oh yeah this is definitely a favorite. Do you have any new found favorites?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_20591.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1342" src="https://ggmadeit.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/img_20591.jpg?w=225&resize=225%2C300" alt="IMG_2059" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Knit on my fiber friends….knit on</p>

<p>Hello my fiber friends, it has been a week and I thought “GG, did you forget you have a blog?” I found a new toy last night, its called <a href="https://www.canva.com">Canva.</a> Its a free graphic design site I used to create a pic to post on Social Media. I will come back with my thoughts on Canva soon, because I hit the<em> Iamnotadesigner</em> jackpot. So when I posted this pic on I<a href="http://instagram.com/ggmadeit">nstaGram,</a> I had no idea what I started. The comments have me cracking up, so I had to come share.</p>

<p>So is it like choosing a favorite child? Hahahahahahahaaa Let me first admit that I ask this question for purely selfish reasons; you see, I want to be sure I’m not missing out. What??? You read the title right? Yarnho that’s me and I’m proud of it! I mean there is just so many variables. Do you have a favorite brand, do you have a favorite weight, a favorite blend even? See what I mean? So when I go in my stash and molest, I mean caress my babies, much like a mother..I love them all equally. What about you? Do you Plead the 5th? Hilarious! I love my fiber friends.</p>
