Yesterday did turn out to be a pretty productive day! I finished up a scarf I'd had on the needles for a few weeks, and knit two more, and started a 4th! yay! I also spun up another art yarn - pictures of that one tomorrow. I also listed the 3 yarns spun on Sunday. Had some trouble with taking...
and I am up early! Yay! Now, if I can just STAY up and not go back to bed, I should be off to the start of a very productive day! This weekend wasn't so productive. I usually can get multiple yarns done each day, but the past 3 days, I seemed to be stuck on getting just one colorway spun up. I...
I have a new FunctionArt art yarn listed in my shop - it is a colorway I've done before but as always this one is a little different. I think this batch of fiber was a bit darker and I used some different yarns I didn't have when I spun the other one - one skein has sold already but here is the...
First, I have to say my website issue still is not resolved, and in the wee hours of the morning I realized that my *url forwarding* may have expired MONTHS ago?!?!? That *really* sucks. And while it is my fault the domains themselves expired because I wasn't checking that email - if the forwarding...
Well, I've been a bit distracted this week so have missed posting, but I really wanted to mention where I will be THIS WEEKEND! The MIDWEST FIBER & FOLK ART FAIR in Crystal Lake, Illinois!

Of course I have more new yarn pictures for you today! (maybe some rambling later, too, but for now - pictures!) First, are two yarns spun from hand dyed merino wool, dyed by the Yarn Wench in color "Arcadia". I realized when listing these yesterday that this seems to be another one of my favorite...
Here are just a few pictures from the new yarns I spun up over the weekend (more coming this afternoon, too!) Clicking on the pictures should take you to the Etsy Listing. Vegas, baby! Hand Spun Two-Ply bamboo yarn spun from two of LOOP's "Chocolate Liqueur" batts. Then, there is "Radioactive...

Here are the latest - Beautiful Bamboo - Summer Neon Taffy - Two skeins available here and here or click on the picture below. FunctionArt - Pink Lemonade -...
So, this morning when I woke up, I was very tired. I thought, "I have to leave work early today anyways I should just stay home." But, no. I've only got 18 more days left, I should really go in . . . So, I did. Well, eventually. It took me *two hours* to get to work this morning. It usually takes...

So, for anyone into fiber/spinning, you may be aware of LOOP - her batts were on the cover of Spin-Off magazine recently, and the demand has definitely increased for her wonderful fiber batts. But, none of them compare to her "Spontaneous Spinning Batts" - from her listing, this is a description of...
So, I didn't get quite as much spun this weekend as I was hoping to as I just wanted to laze around instead! But, I did get a TON of pictures taken for all of the hand knits that I need to add to my Kitty Grrlz Knits shop and also did get some yarns spun. First, here are a couple shots of the hand...
So, I guess I've been a slacker this week in posting. I've just been so tired and haven't had much to say . . . . of course, I always have pictures to share, though, so today I thought I'd get caught up on some of the newest yarns I have . . . First, I have the "LoopCoilyPuff" yarns that I showed on...

So, last night was Monday night. That means I spin to "Big Bang Theory" and "How I Met Your Mother" . . . but after that, I usually switch over to the end of "Dancing with the Stars" before heading over to ESPN or some sports stuff to leave on as background noise until I sleep . . . so . . I switch...
well, actually this is about Spike and Angel. So, on my way to work this morning, I was listening to a CD that had two of the Buffy musical songs on it, one of them being Spike's song . . . which of course got me thinking about Spike in general . . . and about how many fans find one of the most...
