I am doing it. I am blogging tonight so that I don't feel my blog hanging over my head. I keep meaning too, but when my hubby is home for his four days off I have a hard time getting my thoughts together for posting. But, I have been busy!
Monday: Sock blank dyeing! Some friends and I got together to try our hand at dyeing these for ourselves and they turned out great! Leah beat me to the punch at getting a photo of her up on her blog! I will hopefully get some photographs up tomorrow when my dear hubby isn't around again.
Tuesday: Rough start to the day, but I did do a spinning demo at an elementary school. Spinning in front of children always reminds me how much I really wished I could spin straw into gold! (Number one question I am usually asked)
Wednesday: I had a rather quiet afternoon and evening as I mostly got to knit. I cast on the November Ruffle Wrap in a luscious natural cream alpaca yarn that I have been saving. I am taking a break from my list as it was making me crazy instead of helping, and I just really want to knit something for me! I have about 5.5in done, not too bad.
Today: Shipped out several orders, waited in vain for the mail man to deliver my Phat Fiber box, and got some good cleaning done! I also am planning out the next couple days worth of dyeing! So I should have lot of fresh stock in the next week or so.
I feel so much better now! Hopefully Saturday I will be raving and posting lots of pics from my phat sampler!
Can't wait for the boxes! And taking pictures will be so fun!
ReplyDeleteI loved the "straw into gold question," wouldn't that be nice! It's funny the connections we forget to make! I had completely forgotten about Sleeping Beauty, too!
How did you learn to Kettle dye? I love your work.
ReplyDeleteI learned through online tutorials and through trial and error! It is a continuing adventure!! Great blog btw, thanks for checking out mine!
