I spun this
Here’s a close up
and another
The fiber is from a Totally Tubular Kit that I bought from The Bellwether, the color: well The Colors Purple of course. This was a totally fun spin and I whipped through 4 oz in just a few days, in between work, knitting and playing with the new car. [...]
Sorry no pics, it’s still in the trunk. Last night I went to the first spinning class, meeting once a week for three weeks, and a llama fleece followed me home.
Ummm, there’s a llama in my trunk.
This last weekend found me, Libby and MHP jumping on a ferry and taking a little ride out to meet Sachi, who found this little fiber thing going on, that’s where we saw the sheep shorn. So Libby, MHP and I jumped on the Walla Walla and took a very quick 30 minute ferry ride [...]
Last Saturday, Libby, Christina, Christina’s Grandma (Sorry Grandma, I didn’t get a pic of you, but your pink afghan managed to sneak a toe in) and Libby’s son MHP, all met at Village Yarn and Tea to do some knitting, and even better I remembered not only to bring a camera, but to actually use [...]
My camera and I found some time together this evening, so finally I’m posting a few pics.

I bought NO yarn, none, nadda, zilch, not even 1 measly little skein of sock yarn, so if you’re looking for yarn p0rn, you won’t get any past the first picture, and that is my hand spun.
Wow, now that it’s all out in the open, I think I got a little carried away, but I had [...]
Finally a little bit of breathing room.
As promised a few pics from last weekend.
DH booked us a room with a view. This is the view we woke up to Saturday morning from our window. Across the way from us, seen in the not to distant distances is Surrey BC . Yup [...]
Let’s start with Friday’s visit from the UPS guy. He brought me a box from Knit Happens and look what was in that box.
Some Jade Company Mongolian Cashmere in a lovely lilac ( 6 skeins to be exact) and some Touch Me in “Burgundy Cream”, it really does look that purple in person (5 [...]
I finally have all the yarn for my next sweater project, you’re looking at 22 skeins of Dalgarn Heilo in 4 different colors. Once I clear out at least 1 of the 1 sweaters currently OTN, I can cast on for my first Dale. All that wooly good ness is sitting on my [...]
