First off, I got over feeling sorry for myself. That was a biggie folks.
Second, I finished spinning and plying the silky soft wool/mohair Mint Chocolate Chip colorway that I dyed last week:
On the bobbin - this color is correct
Skeined - color is off, see above
There's approximately 328 yards of yarn there. I apologize for the bad lighting in the second pic. I went outside for the first one and was attacked by a mob of mosquitoes. Not wanting to face any more of the critters, I high-tailed it inside.
It's amazing how much my spinning has bitten into my knitting time. I'm still knitting, just not as much.
I did make major progress last night on the secret birthday knitting though and I'll make a little more once the kids disappear for the evening. It's an acrylic project and it's killing my hands to work with it. I missed my deadline getting it done, but since I was with the gift-ee all last week, it wouldn't have been a secret if I worked on it in front of her now would it?
I've got a dye project to show you tomorrow. Stay tuned!
Mmmmmm . . . that is gorgeous! I do want to eat it.
