I opted out of the event I have been looking forward to for months in an effort to stay home and get my inventory under control –basically just more of it—–so I am a Black Sheep gathering of one.
Having to walk away from something that I thought I really wanted made me double my efforts to show that something better would happen if I stayed closer to home. I think it has.
All of this wool just jumped out at me while I was at the studio yesterday. Hand spun wool, hand dyed seacell and hand dyed 8 ply camel from Handmaiden. (all delicious little treat yarns). Just enough of everything to make this scarf and a not exactly matchy hat of gigantic proportion.
I’ve spun a lot this week. (the benefit of my spinning class on Wednesday and the carding group on Thursday) and the finished yarns have been taunting me, so much so that I think one of them is not getting tagged for the show next weekend.
