Every thing is blooming here!
I have the head full of allergies and boxes of tissues waiting their turn to prove it.
In love with the spinning wheel yet again. Spent a good part of the weekend drugged up and spinning away on this...
A LOT of this.
A darling friend, who may or may not want me outing her as being nice to me, sent me a fabulous box of lovely fiber. Including 8 oz of the above. Spunky Eclectic's Utah Sunrise out of truly amazing BFL. Of course, I can't find that colourway on the site. However, I am now in love with most of Amy's colourways.
If I can make friends with my bulky flyer, that tried to start a fire yesterday, there will be (more) plying. If I can't, then there will be A LOT of singles. A lot a lot.
What else?
No idea. I'm in a good mood. Waiting for rain. Loving my friends and at a place of peace with the worst home-made yarn I have EVER made.
Weird, right?
Yeah, too bad.
xo
That BFL looks yummy! Can wait to see the yarn you've created.

Sorry about the allergies. I'm personally a big fan of portable hepa filters. I have two that can follow me around the house.
What a beautiful colorway. Good luck with the fire flyer.

Maybe the colorway was made specially for the person who sent it to you. :) A place of peace is a very fine place to be.

I'm pissed because it's like 12 degrees, NOTHING is in bloom and yet? My damn spring allergies are minding the calendar. Oh, look! IT'S SPRING! Time for Annie's sinuses to try and kill her for the next month and a half!!!

Allergies and it's cold. I am so done over here. Love the fiber and love the yarn. Great job, once again, Dumplin'! And, I'm so glad you are in a good place. It won't last, but anytime we can spend there is a joy!

Those colors are lovely. And so is the finished product. A big bobbin is nice, but I want one of those woolee winder/ fast flyer things for my wheel. The moving the fiber every 2 seconds gets me out of my groove

1) Nasacort is your friend.
2) Good moods are to be savored while they last.

Boo for the allergies. Yay for the fiber!
I noticed lots of little poppy seedlings yesterday, but unfortunately most of the them were between the patio stones, where they will have a short and tragic life.

Life is good my friend. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes out of that fiber too. We're in the midst of a wind storm and I've done a cable cast on two times and I may throw THAT to the wind.

What?! No flower photos!?
Lovely fiber. I hope the large flyer did not combust.
