Of Farbic & Fiber

That's my new tagline lol I have a feeling my blog will have lots of Fabric content as I dive into the world of sewing.

Phear not my knitting friends! I still have the passion. I knitted a WHOLE half of a hat and now comes fairisle and I'm a wee bit scared but I'm waiting till the weekend when I can really concentrate and do that part right.

With my $200 I decided to buy something TOTALLY crazy. A Gocco!! Whats a Gocco you ask? Well it's an amazing Japanese inventation that is just... well... amazing!

I purchased it from ThinkInk as it was least expensive there and also came with free shipping and a cool how to guide. I also got the Fabric Printing add on and some extra colors of Fabric Ink! $207 total, and they owe me $19.95 for shipping that was SUPPOSED to be free so it was really under $200!

A wonderful example of what can be done with this little machine is here but the really great thing I can do with it, is create my OWN clothing labels for things I knit! Everytime I order labels I spend $20 - $40 so I think this actually will save me money in the LONG run (if I get that far lol).
