I am a terrible blogger. Three months between updates is terrible, especially when the goal here is to keep track of my projects so that I remember what I’ve done, how, and to some extent, why. I’m going to try to play catch up here, just to get things back on track.
I finished Simple Things. [...]

I’m kind of amazed how quickly I flew through spinning up the January 2010 Hello Yarn Fiber Club roving. It arrived in my mailbox on the 11th (I think), I photographed it on the 14th, and then it was on the wheel that night. The yarn was done by the end of the week, finished [...]

I finished the Patchwork socks a while ago. According to Ravelry, on January 27th. I’m just really, really forgetful when it comes to taking pictures and even more forgetful when it comes to blogging. They’re nice socks, though, and I’m wearing them for the first time today.
And I can’t believe that even though the sock [...]

Again, in the interest of taking good notes about my spinning…
Next on the wheel is some Merino Silk from Bee Mice Elf. I picked this up over the summer, expecting it to be Tour de Fleece spinning, and then I ran out of days in the TdF. I also ran out of spinning mojo, and [...]

I finished up a lot of spinning last week. On Friday, I finished off Night Sky, and it was about time. I started that one back in December, when I thought I’d want more sock yarn for my trip to New York for Christmas. I am totally in love with the resulting yarn.
I am getting [...]

Not knitting, not spinning, but playing Dragon Age on the Xbox. Although the spinning and knitting is slowly working its way back into my things to do. There’s only so many times I can play through Dragon Age, I suppose. I guess that number might be 5.
I did finally finish my Patchwork yarn earlier this [...]

I also think I need to start keeping better notes of my spinning. When sharing the Buckland socks on Ravelry, I received a few questions about how I’d spun the yarn, and it was a real stretch to remember anything more than splitting the wool into thinner pieces for each ply. I didn’t have any [...]

I wasn’t going to go. I ended up somehow overspending and getting myself down way beyond what I’d budgeted for this first half of the month. I was also worried about what I was going to have to spend on the dentist, until finding out that I’m actually cavity-free and my mouth pain is the [...]

To be fair, I had a really hard time getting nice pictures of this spin in progress. I think that’s enough of an excuse for the lack of blogging action.
I wanted to switch from the brown, natural roving to something a little more colorful and exciting to spin. I’d picked up some more Superwash Merino [...]

I’m going to at least try to blog most of the Tour. Even if it means combining days into posts.
Day 1: English Leicester lambswool singles.
I’ve been plodding along on these bobbins from the big bag of English Leicester lambswool that I picked up at Wisconsin Sheep and Wool last fall. I didn’t get far into [...]
