WIP and Fiber Wordless Wednesday

So I totally forgot my cell phone at home today which had all my photos for today’s WIP.  So I decided to draw what I have been working on this week instead.

1. I’ve been spinning again!  This time I’m trying to see how thin I can make a single ply.  Making bulky weight yarn is easy, 2hrs for 4oz from start to ply but spinning this thin is taking forever!  I’m really looking forward to the yarn though.  Here is my artistic rendition of the fiber that is on my bobbin.

2. The alpaca fan shawl is DONE! Well kind of, it still needs blocking but all the crochet is done and the fringe is on.  Here’s what it looks like, cool huh?

3. Fiber fiber everywhere.  I shipped out 3 boxes totaling 60lbs of fiber yesterday to the mill.  With any good luck by September I’ll be stocked up and ready for shows!

Lastly I’m combining my Fiber Wordless Wednesday into this post, here is this week’s alpaca photo.   If you raise fiber animals and have a photo by all means join in on the linky!

Fiber Wordless Wednesday

This is what a really pissed off alpaca looks like.  He got loose in a 3 acre field dragging a lead rope.  Totally freaked himself out, ran around screaming for a good 15 minutes until M and I managed to herd him into a corner where I snagged the lead and got him back.  Silly Alpaca.
