First of all...where have I been? I'm not sure mentally, but I do know physically that I have been doing a lot of fibre deying, and my carder handle arm is a little tired LOL but there is lots of gorgeous hand dyed by moi packs of stunning english leicester curls, border leicester and border x merino fibre in a rainbow of colours available in the shop. I'm gonna make an effort and list some in the on-line shop for you too.
Now...SNAKES ALIVE !
Oatlands Handmade is thoroughly excited to be a part of the Tasmanian Leaders initiative 100doorsnakes100days project. Partnering with Anglicare, 100 Door Snakes in 100 Days is a community led innitiative in partnership with Anglicare Tasmania, to provide handmade draught stoppers to Tasmanian households living in supported accommodation and wishing to reduce their energy consumption in a sustainable way. Check out the website and the Facebook Page for links, patterns, tips and pics of completed snakes.
We challenge all our friends to make a draught snake and drop into the shop before May 31st. If you need yarn, we have plenty, likewise stuffing and embellishments. You could also grab a plain jane snake from ChickenFeed or ShipLoads for instance and decorate!!
