Hi everyone I’m back! What a trip up to the Adirondack Mountains I had. Of course it’s Tour de Fleece right now so I brought my wheel along with me. Since it sat in the passenger’s seat for the trip I found myself talking to it and finally gave it a name, Chester. I’m sure most wheel’s [...]

Yeah for hump day! So I have made a ton of FO’s this week and only have one WIP to share. My wool/tencel blend basket weave scarf. Did I mention that I can’t stand knitting? I’m so much slower at it but only way to get faster is to practice so I figured a basket [...] No more artistic renditions, this is the final alpaca fan shawl!

[...] Welcome back to Fiber Market Mondays! A place where fiber artists and fiber ranchers can promote goods for sale for fiber lovers like you! You’ve been watching its progress these past few weeks and the shawl is finally finished! I had intentions of keeping this shawl for myself but decided to do one in [...] Welcome back to Fiber Arts Friday! I’ve had a case of Fiber ADD again this week. I think heading up to Jay NY for the shearing seminar got me motivated to play with everything alpaca again. If you frequent my Fiber Wordless Wednesday you’ve seen my shearing job so I won’t bore you with that [...] Let’s face it, alpaca yarn is expensive and if you’re like me you hate to waste any of it. I had about 50 or so yards left over from a project and came up with this little pattern to make a cowl. With 2 buttons finishing it off it happily fits around my neck perfectly [...] |
