This is my blog for my new business. I've been knitting since Feb 2009 after a break of 15+ years. I first learned from books but picked up again since my friend dyed the most beautiful yarns and I just couldn't collect them. I started to spin in Aug 2010 on a spindle and then on a Hansen Minispinner since Oct 2010. I started to weave Sept 2014 on an Emilia Glimakra Rigid Heddle Loom. I've been test knitting since 2011 and a sample knitter since 2016.

Plugging Along!
Almost done these socks for my youngest. Just turned the heels on the 2nd pair. These are made with Knit Picks Felici in the colorway Rainbow. It's done with my go to Wendy Johnson pattern.
This is my first Dee O'Keefe shawl (Ashton Shawlette). The yarn is by Gourmet Stash which no long sells yarn or fiber. You can't see the sparkles in the yarn.
This is Watchet by Hunter Hammersen. I'm knitting it with a self striping yarn so I'm not sure how it will turn out. Right now it looks cool.
I had hope to finish this for the County Fair but the deadline will be September. We will see. I have plenty of shawls and hat to enter.
This is Alivia by Vanessa Smith. I can't wait till its finished.
I'm almost done this braid. I can't wait to see how it n-ply. So far I love the spin! It's The Big O by Gale's Art.

New Year's Eve!
I spent today mostly spinning and eating. We usually make a bunch of appetizers and eat during the day. I had to finish this skein of yarn so it wouldn't be on the books for 2015. I have some projects I want to finish but I'll be lucky if I get time to knit on them tonight. The girls want to play video games and a dessert is calling me. Wishing you all a great 2015!!
