You Are Not The Boss of Me

Shop updates every Sunday at 7pm Eastern! http://www.lollipopyarn.etsy.com

There’s trouble afoot at the Lollipop Labs. Bad attitudes abound, as well as antics, shenanigans, and general all around high jinks.

You Are Not the Boss of Me

You Are Not the Boss of Me

YOU ARE NOT THE BOSS OF ME

Let’s start with You Are Not The Boss of Me.

She’s spunky and sassy, and not inclined to do anything you say – at least the first time around. Just accept the fact that you are not in control of this relationship and you’ll be fine.
You might also want to keep a box of chocolates nearby for bribery.
6 rows Backtalk Blue, 5 rows Smartmouth Mint, 6 rows Saucy Sangria, 5 rows Sassy Pants Seaweed, all intertwined with Bite Me Black

Wild Thing

WILD THING

Next up is Wild Thing, a bold little ball who makes everything groovy. If you’re hoping to head out for a quite evening, you’ll probably find yourself dancing on the ceiling and partying ’til dawn.
She’s definitely got a bit of the bad girl in her, but put this yarn on your needles and she’ll make your heart sing!
4 rows Madcap Mango, 4 rows Crazy Charcoal, 4 rows Foolish Fuschia, 4 rows Crazy Charcoal, 4 rows Dotty Daffodil, 4 rows Crazy Charcoal

Up To No Good

Up To No Good

UP TO NO GOOD

Short sheeting the bed and leaving a whoopee cushion on your chair is likely to give any girl a bad rep. Lucky for her she’s exceptionally pretty, and with 6 saturated stripes, she solemnly swears to knit up into a dazzling pair of socks.

5 rows Prank Purple, 5 rows Gag Green, 5 rows Mischievous Magenta, 5 rows Misbehavin’ Midnight, 5 rows Banter Blue

Essential Element

ESSENTIAL ELEMENT

Finally – the voice of reason! This classic and classy ball tries her best to keep the rest of the Lollipop girls in line.
She’s complex and a wee bit brainy, but always reliably beautiful on your needles.

6 rows Oxygen, 2 rows Carbon, 6 rows Nitrogen, 2 rows Copper, 6 rows Hydrogen, 2 rows Zinc.
