So, April is almost over, so I figured I should post. I’ve spun a little. I’ve knit a little. I’ve grown seeds into seedlings and then had the birds eat them after I put them in their permanent pots and decided that I wasn’t going to have bird feeders on the porch anymore during spring [...]

First, the spinning photo I am overdue for. DSC00811 From left to right… 4oz Sakina Needles BFL, A batt I got from Caroline(WoolForBrains)’s Etsy shop, 4oz Cloverleaf Farms Merino/Silk 80/20 I got at MDSW 3 years ago. (It has a bright pink and purple hank of yarn waiting to do colorwork with it once I [...]

So while not posting, I have been knitting. I finally finished up Flore, in the Red Pepper colorway. chilipepperflore It’s a fiddly knit. Not overly taxing, but fiddly in the doing and fiddly in the finishing. It is very cute however, and something I’ve wanted to knit since before I knew how to knit at [...]

Ok so I ordered a new charger and new batteries from Amazon and they finally arrived. Here are the pictures from last week. I apologize in advance for not matching the creativeness of your imaginations! If the images appear blurry in the post that’s my fault btw… the watermarking thing screws with them, I have [...]

I bought some glitz. A rather lot of it. I have this nice really black Alpaca see… and it’s been in my fiber stash for over a year…. waiting on me to spin it… and when I got the carder, it occurred to me to use what I just learned in the Camp Pluckyfluff class [...]

And this is the yarn I spun from the batts I made from the locks I bought at MSW. (This is the house that Jack built….) DSC00634 It’s somewhere around 5 [...]

Miss me? Ok so I have lots I could post about, but the camera is in the car still and the cord is I-dunno-where, so, wall of text is all you get today. I started the Flore hat for a friend who’s gonna be a daddy sometime in the next 7 months or so… I [...]

So I have been confirmed for the Plucky Fluff spinning class taking place in my area right before MSW. After reading about the exploits and enjoyment LadyLinoleum had, when I found out about a class near me I signed up without hesitation. Now I just need to do some prep singles and some fuzzie felted [...]

So a few months ago I made a special order from Karastix’s Etsy shop after seeing it as the shop of the day on the Daily Chum. My order came in while I was away, and it was a super treat to open Monday morning. I got two gauges, a 1 inch and a 4 [...]

I meant to post about this last week, but I did not because life got in the way, but I’ll get to that in a minute. Jen was my HHHH swap pal and I received my package from her the Tuesday afternoon of my last post. She sent a some lovely 2ply hand-spun. About 400 [...]
