Written by I can’t believe it’s Sunday already, but time seems to be moving faster and faster these days. Yesterday, I went with Opus on a little outing to Cartlon. To visit Woodland Woolworks. I’m slowly progressing on my Seraphim shawl, and desperately need blocking wires. Luckily, they had them in stock (no, I didn’t call ahead), so I can block the shawl when the time comes.
Which will hopefully be before Miriam Felton arrives for her upcoming lace workshops, since we’re hoping to set up a display of lace garments to show off her designs.
And, because I’m teaching a class on handspinning in November (the same time as Miriam’s visit, actually), I’ve been stocking up on handspun yarn for both display and teaching purposes:
Above is 4oz of Blue-faced Leicester, dyed by Abstract Fiber in the color “Chartreuse”. I think it’s a sport weight (haven’t checked the yardage yet), and should be destined for something lovely… eventually.
I have so many designs in my head, it’s getting a little distracting.
Anyway. Just looked at the clock – 10:30 pm! Have to go to bed now, gotta go to work early tomorrow. Before I climb into bed, here’s a photo of Laurelhurst Park I took this afternoon:
Cheers!
I still haven’t finished my Juno Regina, but I did knit her Aspen Shawl over the summer. I wanted to come up to take her workshop but I don’t think it will happen.
Beautiful yarn!
Beautiful spinning! (of course)
you should really get in touch with me sometime, hehe.
miss talking with you.
