I'm So Happy!

   So, last night, guess what I got? A sewing machine! It's a Singer Simple 23 stitch 2263, and I love it! I played around with it some last night, wound bobbins with thread (1 black and 1 white), tried out stitches, and practiced straight lines. I sewed up some of the holes in my boyfriend's shirts while I was at it too. I can't wait until I get some zippers and interfacing, and probably some new fabric too, that way I can start making project bags! I have memorized how to make them by watching YouTube videos, and just want to make one already!

  For Tour de Fleece, I am almost done with the Shetland wool, and it will be plied soon! Next in line is "Queen Mermaid!" 

Episode 3 is up on my Podcast Blog! Go check it out!

Tomorrow is... Tour de Fleece 2013!

   I am so excited! Tomorrow is the first day of Tour de Fleece 2013! This will be my first year, and boy, am I looking forward to it! I have my spindle ready, and 5 new batts of fiber! I took some better pictures than what I posted yesterday.. I stole our new tortoise's light for a few minutes (picture at the end ^.^ )

My shetland wool that I have been working on, there's not much left, the rest is going to be navajo plied! :) I've been spinning like crazy this week!

WIP Wednesday

  There are 3 WIPs this week, 2 small, and one large project. First is another pair of baby socks in RHSS Baby Yarn in the colorway "Confetti Color" on size 4 needles. I am working on the heel flap right now, which you can't see because it is on the back needle.

FO Friday

   Today, I am exited to tell you, I have 3, yes 3, finished objects! They are my first attempts at knitting socks! 2 Baby pairs, (Left) knit on size 4 DPN, Juniper Moon Farm's Moonshine in "Cotton Candy" (Right) Knit on size 4 DPN, Red Heart Baby Yarn in "Confetti Color"

   The third pair, is a pair for me. Knit on size 4 DPN, in Juniper Moon Farm's Moonshine in "Cotton Candy." The color is a bit off, if you can't tell. Also, they're not blocked. As you can see by the rolling at the top.
