Which brings me to the topic of the source: Farm & Fiber Knits, another subscription from Long Thread Media. I'm not a subscriber, but if you are interested in local farms, natural fibers, shepherds, and unique designers, this is one source. It's not that I am not interested in those things; I am feeling overwhelmed by email and online information at the present moment. Even fiber can be too much sometimes.
Knitting: Still slogging away on the ice dyed socks.
Spinning: Still working on the Wensleydale top; I've read that this fiber felts well, but it seems very wispy, so I slather up with hand lotion when spinning it, to try to tame it a bit.
Weaving: The first panel of the buffalo plaid blanket is woven; started the second one.
For a while there, I was not feeling the weaving. After finishing the log cabin scarf for my SO, my interest perked up, probably because the scarf turned out so nice. Maybe I just needed a boost in confidence to get going again at a loom. I have several new weaving projects in mind, so stay tuned!
