Tuesday, January 18, 2011 at 11:21AM I have some stuff to show off:
Captain Malcom Reynolds
Kaylee:
Inara:
River:
Wash:
These are the fibers and yarns I have up in the shop that are "Firefly" inspired. More are coming soon!
The items are great, but what I'm really showing off is my new-found toy: Picasa! It makes great collages and is so simple to use! Aren't they shiny?!

As mentioned before, Stone and String and I (Inspiration Fibers) are collaborating for Ravelry's Nerd Wars. We're on Team Browncoat; dedicated to keeping Firefly alive and the skies free. (For Bridget ;) and others: Firefly is a TV show by Joss Whedon that only was alive for 14 wonderful episodes and a terrific movie. Fans have kept up ferver for it for 8 years now. It's brilliant. It's a Western set in space. I know--but you should check it out on Netflix if you can!) Signups are taking place now, with the first battle starting on Feb. 1. Shelley and I are even official sponsors!
In preparation, Shelley and I are busy over our dye pots. Here's a sneak peak at "Kaylee" (very sneak peak--it's still dripping!). The yarn is my line called "Faith"; it's Bluefaced Leicester Superwash, worsted. Shelley will have similar colorways for Kaylee in her different yarn bases.
This is based on Kaylee at the market in the first episode of Firefly.
Stay tuned for Inara, River and Mal. They'll be batts in my shop, and will be ready to launch by Saturday!!
