Second Bobbin!

This red camel fiber is such a smooth and soft spin!  The spinning went faster than I imagined it would, and now I can't wait to ply this weekend!  This was one of my hand dyed fiber bumbs at Dye Day at the Barn this year!

Second Bobbin ~ Red Camel

I just can't stop spinning this lovely fiber!  So beautiful and soft!

First Bobbin~Red Camel!

So beautiful!!!

Love the Red Camel!

amazing - so soft and so smooth to spin!  From 2015 Dye Day at the Barn!

Wee socks!

These socks turned out to be so cute!  Yes, the two heels are a little different as my Wrap & Turn technique improved, yet great to practice on wee socks!  Only a little of this fun yarn left over.... nice work with scrap stash of Jitteryknitter!

Wee sock heels!

Trying to figure out Wrap & Turn technique on these wee socks. The second sock was much easier as I used rubber bands to mark where the wrap had occurred. Perhaps next pair will be perfect?!!

328 yards of lovely!

Finally came back to plying this lovely yarn, and it is beautiful! Soft and lofty, and I think it will be great to knit!

River Knitting!

Fun to be knitting on wee bitty socks - had to stop as I can't recall how to Wrap and Turn....and have no internet connection on the river..... stay tuned!!

15th Teen Hat!

This hat using Imperial Stock Ranch yarn turned out beautiful!  Very bouncy yarn, yet not smooth to knit with.  Is this considered squishy yarn?  Thanks to Jitteryknitter for these stash leftovers!

Baby Socks!

My first time trying to knit little baby socks - using my Addi Sock Rockets and love them for this teeny tiny knitting!  Using Jitteryknitter's left over Seahawks sock yarn. Very fun to try a new project!

Soft and lofty 2-ply ~

What a wonderful surprise to find that this 2-ply is soft and lofty and smooshy!  I think this will be great for knitting!  Already have a full bobbin of 2-ply and still some left to ply, I wonder how many yards there will be!

Second Bobbin Done!

This is the lovely Abundant Fiber blend and such fun to spin!

14th Teen Hat!

Finished this at JitteryKnitters, having fun with our knitting friends!  Love how the chunky yarn knits so fast!  Part of the 15 hats in 2015 and my charity teen knitting.

13th Teen Hat!

Made from chunky wool, hand spun from Sisters, Oregon many many years ago!  Love how it turned out!  Part of my 15 hats for 2015 and my charity knitting for teens!

12th Teen Hat!

Another helix hat for my 15 "teen boy" hats for the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank's holiday charity event.  Seahawks' colors for teen boys, hopefully they will like them!

More Spinning!

Now that I've plyed Earl the Ram, I am back to spinning this lovely fiber from Abundant Fiber!

Love 2-ply Earl!

Love how the 2-ply is turning out, soft and even... and lovely! 

Knitting with the 99%

Attended the Bernie Sanders rally in Seattle with family and our neighbors. He has great ideas on how to solve real problems. Very refreshing to hear someone talking about solutions to real issues. #bernie2016

Who has hand knit birthday socks?

Here is one very happy 17 year old in her new Jitterbug socks!  Lovely!!

Earl's second bobbin!

Earl is such a softie as far as fiber goes - I can't wait to ply this small bit of paradise fiber!  Thanks again to Mary Beth, my Michigan fiber supplier! :)

Dye Day at the Barn #3

Silkie Socks that Rock in peaches and orange - LOVE how this one turned out!  Great fun!

Dye Day at the Barn #2

Dye Day Results!  The red fiber I dyed for Jitteryknitter, Red Camel (she wanted a Red Camel, so there it is....) and the teal/violet/yellow is "Midnight at the Oasis" (...sing your camel to bed...) and I'm not sure how it will spin into yarn... hopefully lovely!  (my kids like Red Camel the best!)

Dye Day at the Barn!

Dye Day Results! Another amazing day at Blue Moon Fiber Arts with Tina and Team!  This is their Cool Sock that I tried to dye in "brights" like the Socks That Rock that I LOVE!!  However... I could not get the neon colors that Tina/Team gets, so I will continue to buy them from Tina!!! :)
