So I’ve gotten a couple of packages in the past couple of days. Yesterday, I received an OWS package from StephanieGravatt: First: Ravenclaw wall art: I didn’t want to just tape it in the frame, so I think I’m just going to save the frame for something else, but I do have the cross stitched [...]

So I finally finished the shetland I was spinning. It took a while, but it came out totally awesome and I love it to pieces. Here’s what the fiber looked like: (Side note: Someone pm’d me on Ravelry to tell me she thought this looked like a pile of ferrets at first glance) And here’s [...]

It’s been a stash-building couple of weeks. Last week, there was the green roving from the Ongoing Wish Swap (which I’m already halfway through spinning). Then, for my birthday, it was a fiber-pallooza! First, there was this wonderful handdyed green fingering weight: (Unplanned Peacock Studios, Superwash Merino Fingering, Frog colorway, 100g) It was a lovely [...]
Whoo, I received from lapoli! She claimed me for roving, and here’s what she sent: Pretty BFL in lovely greens. She sent this 4 oz braid plus another smaller (I think 2 oz) one, but the smaller one’s not in the picture cause… Imayhavealreadystartedspinningit… : ) Anyway, so… I’m currently knitting swap things. Very soon, [...]
