Got some goodies at the Post Office. First is this lovely by Chimera:
It’s named “Dreamy”- very appropriate don’t ya think? I also got this from her:
It’s “Morning Dove”- very pretty. I’ll stash these and figure out how I’m going to spin them later. She included this oh-so-cute stitch marker:
Now, while you’re at her etsy site, do check out her felted play mats- too cute- enough to make you want to pull out your felting needles and foam pad- don’t forget to get a tetanus booster! (mine is up to date thanks to a certain fiesty hamster).
There were also a few rovings from Black Bunny Fibers (no, really!). First is one she sent me as a challenge- and I love a good challenge. She named it Swamp Thing. Here it is:
So Carol said to make a pretty yarn out of this roving (which I think is gorgeous). So, I’ve decided to spruce it up a bit, I will divide this into the colors, and the grey. Then into the grey I will blend in Enchanted Forest Angelina (see, get to play with my new drumcarder).
More details as I get to it.
Now, this just makes me happy.
Doesn’t that make you smile? It is the first installment of the 2nd round of the BBF Fiber Club- where she sends us 4 types of fibers- 1 about every 6 to 8 weeks. This is 8 oz of Corriedale. I’ve split it in half- since I usually make 4 oz skeins. This first skein I split in half again to make a 2 ply yarn, and the colors will just fall wherever they will. For the 2nd skein I will Navajo ply to keep the bright happy colors intense. I’m totally in love with this colorway, and the corriedale practically spins itself, so I should be ready to ply this soon.
This is what 2 week old guineas look like when they have been well played with all day:
As for goatie mischief, here I am contributing to the delinquincy of Fluff. I don’t think he minds- he had a tough day leading all the other goaties around.
