your drug is a heartbreaker
21 Feb 2008 03:51 pmA first peek at my spinning:

Unknown wooly fiber I found at Stone's Throw Artisans. Some mix of cream, mint and black. Very well prepared and nice to work with, and I'm getting better results than I have with some of the other fibers I've worked with. The only detraction is it was cut in short sections so I have to work at the ends more to get everything trapped (possibly because I don't really know what I'm doing).
Also, still knitting.

Mostly finished thrummed mittens. Need to weave in all the ends and fluff up the thrums.
Yarn: Noro Kureyon and Knit Picks Andean Silk.
Since I finished one of the small scale projects, I let myself start some new socks.

Widdershins from Knitty, in Trekking XXL. Very nice to knit with!
Other knitting status:
Second armwarmer for
nagitaka is cast on and up to the wrist.
Working on the third Bathing Beauty for a gift.
Just got the yarn for my second legwarmer, so I'll cast on for that soon.

Mom made me a really pretty pair of earrings and I promised to photograph them for her. Very comfortable to wear. :)
