Other than drinking I have been spinning.  I managed to spin all of these lovely skeins done this week.  I dunno, I’m just in the spinning groove so I’m going with what feels good.

Lastly I just want to say I love my little ugly duckling moriesian filly.  The more she grows up the more I’m impressed with her conformation and movement.   Isn’t Ellie adorable?   *burp*hiccup* ok I’m done.

Fiber Arts Friday: Back in the Groove

Welcome Back Fiber Arts Friday Followers!

I’ve finally gotten back into my fiber groove.  However it’s a bit all over the place but who cares, it’s all fiber.

Last weekend the weather STUNK so I stayed inside.  I’m actually thankful from the physical break of farm life and to sit on my couch and spin.  I actually managed to spin up 4 skeinsin all.  (1) Cat skein for my friend, (1) Golden Yellow and (2) natural beige. Sorry I don’t have photos of all of them.

Handspun Alpaca Yarn

If you’re curious about the Green Shawl…. It was on the hook ealier this week but recently I took it off and am working on blocking and fringe.

Crochet Fan Shawl

I hope to have the shawl finished in time for a little showing at Fiberarts International.  Girls night out this Saturday!  Yippy!
