Snowed this week

Monday was a great day. I stayed inside and KNIT ALL DAY. Wow. I can't tell you when the last time was that that happened. Got lots done but none that I can show you, Not finished yet and more importantly no camera with me. I'm working on a felted purse pattern in 2 sizes.It has nifty shaping supplied by a fold. Also working on a scarf pattern. Part of it will felt and part not. I'll show both of these to you next week.

Need to dye more roving. More lucious colors. The blue faced leister is so great to spin. What a lovely fiber. I want to hug those big sheepies. Although I'm sure that in the natural they are much different than clean and carded. Sheep are nice to hug if they are friendly sheep like those at the Harveyville Project. Looking forward to going back up there next week. Hug those sheep.

roving to go go

"Roving in wheels go
round and round

to your town."

I've been dying to show you the new rovings that I have dyed. Roving is such a magical thing. What could it grow up to be? So much potential, so much joy.
It could be spun, needle felted, nuno felted or hand felted, woven or knitted or crocheted. If it is spun, what kind of yarn does it or you want it to be? Roving will become what you want it to be.



As you can tell, I am totally into the possibilities of roving. It takes color beautifully and it's fluffy and soft. Reach out and touch through the screen right now. See it really is fluffy and soft.
I think that I will knit a scarf from roving this week. That is what I want it to become for me.


Knit well & love greatly, Deb.
