Take This Job and Shove It

**A Guest Blog from Mr. Cutthroat**
I'm back! Mrs. Cutthroat has been yelling, "Are you ready to clock in for Cutthroat Yarn?" more and more lately.  Now I cannot even put up a fight because she gave me a promotion--I'm the "Chief of Dyeing" or "COD".  I'm incredibly excited to be working with the wool to create beautiful colors and mixes of colors.  Although one major disclosure, I don't get to pick the colors Mrs. Cutthroat hasn't relinquished that much control. But I do enjoy tweaking the shades and highlights.  I still am in charge of taking the yarn from a spindle to the niddy noddy and then washing the yarn and drying it out, also, I'm in charge of packaging.  Now that I think about it, I'm an intricate part of Cutthroat Yarn and deserve a raise! I don't think that Mrs. Cutthroat will give me one without help. So I need you all to message her and leave comments on Facebook to help me get my raise. I'm working like an indentured servant.

In all seriousness, the Cutthroat business is humming along and I'm SOOO PROUD of Mrs. Cutthroat for this new venture! It is incredibly exciting to walk into a yarn shop in Dupont Circle and see, front and center, the yarn that your wife spins while watching Real Housewives of NY, Atlanta & Orange County, and Teen Moms!  Even more exciting than seeing it at the store is when knitters are excited to meet "the girl who makes the beautiful yarn!"  Right now, it's Mrs. Cutthroat's yarn at Looped DC in the future it just might be her yarn at her very own store.
