Back to the Blog!

Just touching base, not much has changed.  Still haven't finished the blends I was working on with the carder.  I have almost finished carding the dyed fleece, but that's about it.

I went fiber camping with some friends two weekends ago, and we did a lot of spinning.  It was great to have my friend Heather there to encourage me to tackle some fiber I have really needed to get finished.  I have now washed a whole bunch of skeins that were sitting around, and they are ready to be used.

Almost finished my daughter's summer sweater, too.  :-)  Hopefully there will still be some nice days for her to wear it.  I have about one more inch of the bottom to do and then the bind-off, then the two sleeves to finish off, which will again be about an inch each.  I have so many projects waiting, I really need to push on and get this done.  The pattern is the Scoop Tee from Interweave Knits, Fall 2009, I think.

Next weekend is WI Sheep and Wool Festival.  I am sooo excited about that trip!!  Not taking any classes, just going to camp, spin, shop, observe and have a great time.  I hope to get some good pictures to post here, too.
