I Started

I couldn't help myself, I started Ishbel yesterday! I love how my handspun is knitting up and boy is this merino and cashmere soft!!! I finished My February socks yesterday and I let myself start this! Love it! Oh I already said that!

I think I am going to have to get some more merino and cashmere top for the shop!

Merino and Cashmere

I just finished spinning up 559 yards of soft fingering weight merino and cashmere. It is supposed to be for an Entrelac SAL-KAL that we are doing over in my Ravelry group but I really want to make Ishbel with it! I think I might have to spin something else up for the entrelac KAL:)
Oh in case you don't know SAL stands for spin along and KAL stands for knit along:)

Spin In

I was a vendor at the Newport Spin In yesterday:) It was a lot of fun. I had never vended at a fiber event before and I was a little nervous! I should have remembered that spinners and knitters are way cool and not worried at all! I met some great people and had a really fun day!

My booth was nice and small and my view of the spinners was so much fun to watch! Plus I got a bunch of spinning in too!

I am feeling better today and I am off to dye some fiber:) I just wanted you all to know that I will be back to blogging this next week:) I am going to a fiber event tomorrow, I will be vending for the first time ever. I will try to take some pictures and tell you all about it! I have nothing ready for it! So I am off to spend my day dyeing fiber:) Not much but a little.

Oh and I had to share a little inkling of spring from my yard!
