>> Hello fiber friends,
>> I am so excited this morning!  I ordered some of Onix Terevinto's hand 
>> dyed yarns and he made the skeins for me yesterday. This morning he sent 
>> me photos - and I will post one with this note for those who can see 
>> photos on the computer.
>>
>> Anyway, I wanted to pass this resource on to you if you are looking for 
>> some really fine yarns. He makes them to your specifications and they are 
>> VERY affordable.  My skeins are all wool, because that is what I ordered. 
>> Each skein is 888 yards, and they are only $20. each. He will ship both 
>> skeins to me today and only charges $5.  and ships them by priority mail.
>>
>> For those on Face Book, you can find Onix at his page listed as his name, 
>> or you can join up with his special page at "Fiber Minds"  if you want to 
>> communicate with other fiber minded people.  If you are looking for some 
>> really nice yarns, you can get about anything you may want and it is 
>> custom colored for you by Onix.
>>
>> I plan to make some scarves in the Double Basket Weave pattern from my 
>> skeins.  Right now, I am finishing up the scarves and hats in Steeler 
>> stripes, for the Christmas markets - I did 6 scarves and am working on 
>> hats now.  Then, I will  be working on some things for myself. Happy 
>> knitting...
