I’ve started work on mittens for this fall/winter craft show season (can you believe it?!) so not much new coffee sleeve-wise except for this strawberry/chocolate one.

Three coffee sleeves listed today, in my favorite Peruvian Highland wool. Whatever it is that means. I wasn’t crazy about this yarn when I bought it, but I like the complexity of the color. I think it will wear really well, too.

AJ helped me to set up my display at Uncommon Grounds Saratoga. Unfortunately, some of the price tags fell off the sleeves while we were putting them on the cups, so I have to go back and fix the display. Grrr. Still, thanks so much to Uncommon Grounds for the opportunity to do this. (and for all of the model cups!) It’s a great honor to be asked to do this when Hamsterdam Handknits is still so new.

As you can see, there’s hardly anything in my Etsy store right now, since the whole coffee sleeve inventory that hasn’t been spoken for or shipped is sitting right there in the window! Working on that, though.
