Hello Fiber Arts Friday Fans! Last spring I had helped our local humane society re-home an alpaca. While I was there they were kind enough to give me several bags of wool sheared from their sheep the weekend before. I made the promise then that I would process the wool and sell the yarn and [...] Guess what! My SD Card on my phone randomly started working again. So knock on wood my HTC Thunderbolt has 100% survived my washing machine. That means I now get to show you what I’m working on.

I stink at knitting to begin with [...] Welcome back FAF fans! This week I’ve been working on what I think will be a mat for a baby.

It’s that time of year to work up so some goodies to give away during the holidays.

I have 2 scrap projects going. 1) Chaos Granny Square Patchwork Blanket. If I get left over yarn I’ve been making up little square and have been crocheting them together. Only rule, fiber used must be natural, [...] Ok one quick question before I show you my little ear warmer. How do you like the new website? Tada!
