This is the yarn for a test knit which is due May 2nd.  I had fun digging in my leftover yarn (which I must organized better) for it.  The red will be the main color and then scraps for the lace part of the yarn.

 

 

This is the start of my test knit wrap.

 

 



Lists

This is my list of patterns that I want to shop for at Maryland Sheep & Wool.  It doesn't mean I want to get them all but if I run into yarn I love then I can at least get enough to do a pattern I have.  Speaking of patterns.  I have 291 patterns that I have yarn to knit up.  You don't want to know how much yarn I have.  There are people on Ravelry worst then me though.  Some have over 1,000 yarn entries.  That doesn't mean they have 1000 skeins they could have 10 for each entry!!

These are the vendors that I want to make sure we see.  I'm sure we will get time to look at it all. 


Only 49 days left till MSWF!!

Washed, Blocked and Ends Weaved In

These turned out big.  Well, not the middle one.  I wished I had more yarn to make that bigger.  It's so sparkly and colorful.  These pictures were taken on the Great Room floor and it was hard not to include the furniture in the photos.

More Progress

More WIP pictures and a FO!!

I had to cut this pattern short for fear of running out of yarn.  I only did 6 of the 10 repeats of the last section.  I'm constantly running out of yarn for projects.  I knit very loose and therefore use more yarn.

I'm getting close.  Now its just the bind off but its like 5 rows that only bind off 2 stitches.  Hopefully it won't be too long before its a FO.

I got some length done on this while waiting for a sports physical for my daughter.  It was a long wait.

This is my favorite WIP right now.  It's two colors but you only work with one color for 2 rows.  I like how its coming out.

This is my first bead project and I like it.  There are beads on the top and I have only 18 more repeats then its going to be short rows.  Once I get through the repeats it should go fast.

Progress

I'm slowing getting some progress on my WIP and haven't started any more (yet LOL).  Here are some pictures.  Some I even managed to wash and block!!

Yes, I have issues

I currently have over 20 WIP (almost 25).  One of those WIP I started today.  I spin and I should get back to weaving.  I'm finally getting around to washing some of my handspun yarn.  Here are some pictures of what I've been working on.

 My second robot.  I need to make 3 for a friend and her two sons.

My lace shawl that I hope to finish before May so I can take it to give to a friend.

Currently on the Hansen Minispinner.

What I just casted on today.   This involved finding and winding the yarn.

My lastest handspun yarn.
