That's quite a bit larger isn't it! I like the light, especially under the light well, I'd be hard pressed not to put my desk under it but it'd be near perfect for a knitting circle. A friend of ours opened a fiber arts store next door to our UPS store and there are always a couple few folks knitting, crocheting, tatting, spinning, whatever. The knitters meet at "regular" times and occupy the circle. 

I get a good vibe from the new location. I think I'll tip a little single malt to you tonight. Nice of the old occupants to leave you a little tipple. Sort of a Parthian toast?

Well, after a total bear of a move, we re-opened today in the new location.

 Moving yarn out of the old shop/gravity is your friend:

* He’s 13 and started the business when he was eight. That’s one entrepreneurial kid. 

Gravity IS your friend if what you're catching is soft. If Deb and I get to Oberlin I need to buy a cup of Eldon's coffee! 

The New Ewe looks pretty darned good! Will any spinning be going on?

I'm sure Deb will have her wheel with her she can show EWE how.

Congrats!

Frosty The Lucky.

Looks nice. Wish her luck. Hope business goes well. 

Congrats to your wife & you John! Lots of hard work and wishing you many years of success in the beautiful new store!!
