Comfort yarn

Last week was rough, so I skipped my usual update. (The FO posts I wrote ahead of time and scheduled their publishing, so you had plenty to read.) I hope this week will be better (fingers crossed!)

For comfort, I dove into my stash, in hopes of finding something to use with this pattern. It's knit in fingering weight yarn, but of course I don't have a tee-shirt-worth of fingering weight yarn that could work. So I ordered the yarn the pattern called for along with the pattern, from Purl Soho. Because I deserve it!

Knitting: Frogged the Lempi sweater. Started a pair of socks, just in time for spending some time visiting a relative in the hospital. (He's home now.)

Spinning: I think I did no spinning, despite joining Tour de Fleece.
Weaving: The clasped-weft coasters are turning out to be a "learning experience" but at least I am getting lots of practice hemstitching.

One of my spare bedrooms has been designated as The Studio, but one day I realized I don't like working in there. Even though there are two windows, the room feels kind of claustrophobic. So I rearranged a few things and now the 24" Ashford loom is in the den, along side my spinning wheel. We'll see how that works out... and if I actually use it out there. I have several other looms of various sizes, but they can't all fit into the den, so I'm not sure how all this will evolve.

The clasped-weft coaster project is taking up most of the dining room table. With the leaf in it, that table is just about perfect for warping the SampleIt loom, which is how the mess starts. The older I get, the more I need organization and simplicity.
