The Beach Bunnies and the Dizzy Blonde all feel strongly about giving back to our communities through conservation. And towards that end we are both donating a portion of our proceeds to this year's chosen non-profit, Delilah's 2nd Chance Rescue. But we want to do more. So, this year, we are trying to raise more funds by selling event T-shirts. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Delilah's 2nd chance.
Prices are posted with each item of the collection.

My favorite song in the entire movie "He Lives In You" scores Simba's transformation moment from carefree youth, to regal adulthood: when Simba comes to terms with and then relinquishes his heavy burden of guilt and regret, he accepts his responsibility, his birthright, and his freedom. Such anguish...such joy! When first I saw it, it took my breath away...so serious and somber one moment, and then light-hearted and playful the next.
This is a great bag for on-the-go fiber arts! Whether your chosen fiber arts expression is knitting, crocheting, weaving, drop-spindling, or any form of embroidery, this bag is the perfect size for everyone! The measurements for this bag are 3 3/4 x 6 1/2 boxed bottom; 11 1/2 inches tall and 20 3/4" around. Measurements may vary up to 1/4".
From the artist:
"For this fun collection inspired by The Lion King, I went with first impressions. When I first think of the movie, I think safari and then oasis. I found both of these awesome prints on Spoonflower. The first is a cool tribal pattern with safari animal silhouettes and the colors were perfect for what I was looking for. The second represents the oasis that Simba spent his youth in and where Nala found him. This print is full of lush vegetation and the silhouettes f young lions or lionesses jumping throughout. Since these bags are complete reversible, you can pick which wild side to show each day."
"A little bit more about the bags: as these are handmade, the fabric placement will vary, for the oasis side, this will be less noticeable, however, for the safari side the animals will not be in the same place on every bag. Each bag has a cotton webbing handle for wrist wearing, a carabiner for clipping to most anything and a cord lock on the drawstring. It is also machine washable, just remove the carabiner and wash on delicate." ~~Amanda

The base is the same as Beach Bunny Yarns': 80% SW Merino/20% Silk, 4oz/115gm - 434yd/397m. We purposely dyed our colorways on the same base, and coordinated them so that you can put them together in a 2-color project. In a later post we will be publishing pattern recommendations, so if you haven't done so yet, hit that "subscribe" button so you don't miss out on any of the Magic!
Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed, and there will be a bonus item for those who order the entire collection, but we'll cover that in another post.

And who better to capture on strands of string than the mighty King of Pride Rock: Mufasa. But don't just take our word for it...From the Artist, Ron Roberts:
"With the theme of 'The Lion King', it seemed only natural to choose to create a colorway based on the lion characters. What character stood out the most to me was Mufasa. The word mufasa means 'king or leader' in Swahili, and I wanted to express the majestic, grand emotion I felt when I first heard James Earl Jones' voice. I also wanted to highlight the natural camouflage that exists between a lion and the colors of the savanna. The golden grasses, reddish earth and dust, and the rocks all emulate the lions' colors and patterns. The question remained: how to create a yarn worthy of the name? Using a traditional layered approach yielded a result closer to mud than a lion's mane. Each color needed to stand out and still blend smoothly with the next. After a couple more less-than-stunning tries, I ended up using multiple layering techniques to achieve the final effect.
Knitted or crocheted, this colorway produces variegated golds, browns, and yellows with short bursts of deep mahogany red. These colors are very reminiscent of not only the movie character, but are also used in many examples of African art. The yarn is bold, rich and warm...even regal."

This year's Stitch The Magic Event is inspired by Disney's 1994 full-length animated feature which has won a total of 9 of the Industry's awards and is the highest-grossing traditionally animated film of all times:
The weekend begins with a Stitchers' meet-up at the designated resort area within the Walt Disney World property, where we provide goodies bags to registered attendees, ice-breaker and other fun activities, along with prizes of the yarny nature. Then, on Sunday we venture into that year's selected park. Space is limited, so keep watching this blog for updates!
Now, you can chose to join us for the entire weekend, just the meet-up or whatever amount of time in both you choose. We will always post directions and instructions for both. Keep in mind that parking can get a little tricky for the meet-up, so we will provide you with different options as we get closer to the event.
The time is almost here! Meeting Time: Saturday, January 20th, 12:00 pm Meeting Location: Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge - Jambo House ...
