Nimble Thimble

Image


Tucked into a corner of the Frozen Falls Market is a tiny cabin crafted out of the finest pine wood. It is about thirty feet wide by another twenty feet in length. The ceilings are rather low, no more than eight feet off the ground. A stone chimney rises out of the southwest corner of the store. Surrounding the fireplace, which is almost always lit save for the time night falls and the store is closed, are rows upon rows of fabric, different colored yarn, knitting and crocheting supplies, as well as sewing supplies and other goods.

The cabin, simply referred to as the Nimble Thimble, is run by an older woman named Amarylis Skyglow, who founded it around the time she turned forty. The woman is a rather friendly sort, who can often be found buzzing about the store, organizing things, or sitting in her rocker and knitting. Usually, however, when one finds her in such a state, she is deep in thought, buried in memories of her now deceased husband, Caspin Skyglow, who built the place for her as a birthday gift. Overjoyed, Amarylis turned the place into a craft-related store, as a way for her to teach others and share her love for various yarns and knitting and sewing.

Name: Amarylis Skyglow
Race: Vantha
DoB: Spring 76, 438 AV
PoB: Avanthal
Title: Shopowner/Knitter
Skills: Sewing 37, Crocheting 51, Knitting 67, Spinning 26, Dyeing 43, Teaching 56, Organization 38
Gnosis: 1 Mark of Morwen

Amarylis is an older Vantha woman, who founded the Nimble Thimble around the time she turned forty, after her husband built her a cabin to store her wares. She may oftentimes be found spinning yarn, sewing, crocheting, knitting, or teaching others within the confines of her shop, assuming she is not organizing the place or at the Skyglow Hold, tending to one matter or another. She is a rather friendly woman and is always willing to help others to learn her craft and to speak to them about the best yarns and fabrics. She can almost always be found with a smile upon her face and makes everything within her store with the exception of some of the specialty items. The Frostfawns, you see, have taken to giving her the wool of some of their sheep, as well as their other animals, so that she may spin and dye her own yarn, leaving her with little need to import items from those outside of Avanthal.
