I actually did a lot this weekend. There was a lot of spinning, dyeing, and knitting to be done. I got some stuff spun and plied that had been sitting around for a while. This blog post is going to be more of a pictorial to document what occurred this weekend.
Firsly, I plied the Rosebud singles that I had spun up before the fall semester started, so the twist was nicely set before I plied it.
Then there was Flowering Weeds. This was another fiber that I received from the Spunky Club. I finished spinning the singles Friday night and plied it today.
Then there is this one that I'm still working on. I actually started spinning this about 2 hours ago. I dyed this a couple months ago using some Merino fiber I bought in bulk a while back. Now that I have time to spin and knit, I'm spinning this one up and am calling it English Garden. That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the way the colors were coming out while I was spinning it.
Now for all the dyeing. I've been putting back to back 4 oz worth of fiber in my crock pot today. I'm going to post the pictures chronologically from early morning to what's cooking now.
I did knit some more on Abby, but I'm not done with it yet and I haven't taken another picture of it, so I'll put it up later.
As you can see, I've been busy, but I feel incredibly fulfilled. In between all of this, I actually did get some housecleaning done as well, and now I'm tired and hungry, so I'll stop here so I can get some food on the table.
