The Eyes Have It!

 

Celia:  So, uh, are we going anywhere special tonight?
Mike:  I…I just got us into a little place called, um, Harryhausen’s
Celia:  Harryhausen’s?  But it’s impossible to get a reservation there.
Mike: Not for Googly Bear.

Bet you all thought the collection was complete, right?  We thought so too, and then we took a step back and realized that one character was seriously under-represented...

Yup, you guessed it!  Mike Wazowski; our lovable, manic, green, one-eyed hero, and boyfriend to his one-and-only Schmoopsie-poo, Celia Mae.

So Beach Bunny Yarns got right on rectifying that oversight, and voila!   We are proud to present...

 

Googly Bear!


Dyed on the same 80/20 SW Merino/Silk, 4 oz/115 gm-434 yds/397 m base as our other 2 colorways, Googly Bear is just the right shade of Mike Wazowski green which just so happens to be a natural contrast to both That Darn Paperwork and Always Watching; and perfect when used with one or both of our original colorways for those gorgeous 2 or 3 color pattern designs that are all the rage...which brings us to our next offering.  

We've already introduced our standard collection:  The CDA Combo.  This year, we have a second, "Deluxe" Collection we like to call the 23-19 Combo.  As with the CDA Combo, a portion from the sale of each 23-19 Combo will be donated to Delilah's 2nd Chance Rescuea non-profit (501(c)(3)) animal rescue organization of Port St. Lucie, FL.


In your 23-19 Combo you will receive:

1 skein of each "That Darn Paperwork", "Googly Bear" and "Always Watching"
"Keep the Doors Coming" reversible project bag
"It's a Scream" notions canister
Free shipping
Bonus Mystery Item valued at $12

Plus...

As an even greater incentive, you will receive a free digital copy of either the knitting pattern or crochet pattern, designed exclusively for Stitch the Magic 2025 by 2 very talented local designers, We will be introducing both designs within the week, and I'm very excited!  Patterns will be release close to the shipping date of your combo.

Pre-orders for the 23-19 Deluxe Combo are open now but will close on January 17, 2025. After which, you may be able to purchase any surplus items individually, but The Combo (the incentives) will no longer be available.   Quantities are limited, so order early to ensure availability.  

When ordering select either 23-19 Combo – Knit Pattern, or 23-19 – Crochet Pattern depending on which pattern you wish to be included with your combo.  

Place your order here.

I've got my Eye on You...





Roz:  Hello, Wazowski. Fun-filled evening planned for tonight?
Mike:  Well, as a matter of fact...
Roz:  Then I'm sure you filed your paperwork correctly, for once.

[Mike smiles innocently] 

Roz:  Your stunned silence is very reassuring.

Always Watching”, this year’s 2nd colorway is from Dizzy Blonde Studios in Port Saint Lucie, FL and was inspired by Roz, the administrator and key master of Scare Floor F, who is also tasked with ensuring all paperwork is filled out properly and turned in at the end of every shift…something Mike Wazowski can’t quite seem to manage…a constant thorn in Roz's side to be sure.

"Always Watching" is dyed up on the same 80/20 SW Merino/Silk, 4 oz/115 gm-434 yds/397 m of soft, lustrous luxury as "That Darn Paperwork".  The Dizzy Blonde chose Deep burgundy for Roz' cardigan, and steely gray for her mohawk are the prominent colors, with a dash of slug umber to warm things up a smidge and pop against the dominant cooler palette.

Laura has been knitting for over 20 years, first introduced to the craft by a very close friend who worked in the film industry, and was growing weary of losing her knitting friends when a show wrapped. Dizzy Blonde Studios was born out of Laura’s love for knitting, designing, and all things fiber. In 2008, she ventured into the world of color application to yarn as an additional creative outlet, and a way to find her zen.

Inspired by her passion for Science Fiction, pet rescue, and Disney, Laura creates fresh and unique colorways using different techniques on various yarn bases. From highly variegated to tonal-shift and saturated solids, there's a perfect colorway waiting for you at Dizzy Blonde Studios.



Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed, and, as last year, there will be a bonus item for those who order the entire collection, but we'll cover that in another post.  

Stay tuned!  More to come!

No Job is Finished Until the Paperwork is done

 

Wazowski! You didn't file your paperwork last night...


...when Mike Wazowski forgets to file his paperwork (yet again) before going on a date with Celia, his best friend Sulley steps up to help...

 Mike to Sulley: The pink copies go to accounting, the fuchsia ones go to purchasing, and the goldenrod ones go to Roz. [Celia pulls him away; he comes back] Leave the puce!

Our first colorway in this year's collection is from Beach Bunny Yarns in Ormond Beach, FL, and it is gorgeous!  Dyed on a base of 80/20 SW Merino/Silk, 4 oz/115 gm-434 yds/397 m of soft, lustrous luxury, "That Darn Paperwork" is super-soft and luxuriously lightweight, has amazing stitch definition and is wonderful to crochet and knit.

This yarn is the Bunny’s take on this mountain of paperwork to be filed.  Pink, fuchsia, and of course, puce are the main colors with a little goldenrod to balance the palette and keep Roz happy.  It’s highly variegated and as disorganized as Wazowski’s paperwork, which only adds to the beauty of this particular colorway.  

Don’t worry, no one is watching!

Ron of Beach Bunny Yarns has been knitting and crocheting for over 20 years and is always looking for new challenges.  He enjoy teaching and sharing his fiber knowledge as well.  He firmly believe that anyone can knit or crochet!

As a maker, he always struggled to find similar skeins of yarn in coordinating or complementing colors, and he created Beach Bunny Yarns five years ago to ensure that fiber artists could pick from a broad selection of color palettes in a variety of great yarn bases.  "I love the creative and technical processes of dyeing and hope that my yarn brings you joy in all your creations!"  He is joined by his wife Alicia aka "she of the many hats":  Executive Director of Food & Beverage Distribution, Senior Yarn-Washer, Website Manager, Senior Stress Facilitator, and Chief Bunny Motivator...just to name a few!

Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed, and, as last year, there will be a bonus item for those who order the entire collection, but we'll cover that in another post.  Don't let this beauty pass you by!  That Darn Paperwork won't knit itself!
