been a while since i posted and that is do to the crazyness going on here. I got my spinning wheel and Carders the middle of last week and so have been going mad over learning both new skills and it is so fun. I am suprised how carding is so much fun and i coulf spend all day dying wool, carding it and seeing what comes out. But in teh futer I might like spinning more.
Over that I made a baby blanket that should be in the store as soon as i make a few last touches. I am getting my stash all out and neatly put into a spot. Also winding up balls into cakes and snippets and ends. Maybe they too will end up in my shop. The tangled messes beyond repair are being cut down into flowers to be sold or used.
What else, oh yea and i am making three scarfs for mothers day two for my BF's mother and step mother and one for my own mother.
I got a lovely shipment of hand made soap off of etsy and once i can type it here i will be. I can never remember how to spell it off the top of my head but the soaps are amazing like always.
I got an order for some older supplies i was selling and shipped them out only to have another made to order go out on my hanging stork pouch - photo prop today. Stitches and Bitches was tonight and that is always a lot of fun. Watched my sister who likes the knitting more then crocheting learn to make socks and got to talk to a very cool lady who owns a whole stuidio of weaving looms, and spinning wheels just down the street from me. She was so nice teaching my sister to knit socks like she did.
Thats about it I am planing once my brother comes down and makes my lil pinkie all pretty to post pics and have a contest to pick a name for him. Crossing fingers.
OH and thursday get to go watch some sheep be sheared ^^ to later by their raw wool and hopefully sell in my shop. Hopping to talk more with this woman and try and learn a lot from her so one day I too can own sheep.
Yo HAVE been busy!
