Love!

Oh, I am so in love with this skein of yarn!!! I finally finished spinning it up this morning. I have been a slow spinner as of late and have been working on this one for about 2 months!!! I am really glad that I love it after it took me so long to spin:) It is merino and silk dyed by Dicentra Designs and I bought it at The Knitting Bee! I spun it up on my Sidekick and plied it on my Schacht Reeves. I got 490 yards fingering weight out of 4 oz! Did I tell you I love it! The pictures don't do it justice. Oh and I had not soaked and set it before I took them!

Aidez

I finished my very modified Aidez sweater. I really love how it turned out! I did no cables on the arms or back and added neck shaping and a collar. I have been to lazy to put the buttons on and I got some pretty bad pictures but such is life!

Checking them off my list!!!

I am checking those Christmas gifts off my list:) One more down 10 or more to go! I can do it:) I love these chunky mitts that I made out of Peru from the Bee:) I knit these in about three hours and that was with ripping back several times to add length. I loosely fallowed this mitten pattern but like always changed it a bit:) Thank you Michelle Porter for making the pattern available for free:) I am quite happy with them!

I finished some spinning!

I just finished up this skein on my CPW! I love that wheel! My friend Shelby over at Spinning Awesome Good dyed the fiber for me and I love how it turned out. I got 362 yards of a heavy fingering weight yarn! This yarn will very soon be a pair of socks.

New to me

I dyed a couple braids of SW Merino the other day in a way I don't normally dye! I think they turned out rather nice. They are making me want to spin:)

I finished my Gaia Shoulder Hug yesterday! I have had this shawl on needles for years! I love how it turned out. It is one of my Christmas gifts and I am so glad to have it finished.

The yarn is Silky Wool and it is all my scraps:)
