Buy OFS Yarn: Naturally Dyed

Okay! Prizes are ready to be put in the mail today, so I took some pictures and away we go. First:
Megan suggested Bombay Blaze for this guy, which is so catchy I had to use it. But I wanted to update it to the city’s current name, so I altered it slightly to Mumbai Blaze. [...]

And so are we, risen from our beds at four-o’-stupid in the morning for the sunrise service, fueled by coffee and dumbfounded at the birds that were chirping an hour before the sun was even thinking about rising. The candlelight Easter Vigil was small, but fun, breakfast with the whole church family was insanely ample, [...]
