Shop Update

1/17/2016

I updated my Etsy shop with some new handspun this week.  The top skein (Between Generations) is a gorgeous mix of jewel tones on top of a natural oatmeal BFL base. The very neutral and so incredibly soft skein on the bottom right (Milk Mustache) is spun from some very luxurious Superwash Targhee into a delectable gradient going from white to grey to brown and black.  The third skein (Ambient) surprised me - I LOVE it and I am not a red person.  Luckily I have 8 more ounces of that fibre to keep for myself :D

I also listed this super cozy infinity scarf I crocheted from 100% baby alpaca.  It is such a gorgeous colour and can be worn many ways.  These cowls/scarves are a must have accessory in my wardrobe.  One main benefit of this one is that it isn't bulky, so you can wear it at work without feeling like you left some outerwear on.  Classy and warm <3

Weekly Inspiration - Turkish Spindle Spinning

1/5/2016

Picture
I have been really inspired by all the people spinning on their turkish spindles in the past little while.  I bought a large Capar spindle at the Manitoba Fibre Festival this past fall and have been wanting to get spinning on it.  I have four 1 oz bumps of fibre that I am planning to spin separately and combine into a project (likely a shawl).  I really need to work on my winding but these people have given me a push. Starting at top left: Phyberphreak's TDF 2014 project, Allison (ASJKnits) (Bottom) Julie (aelllis) and Joanne Seiff.  Seasoned turkish spindle users - please let me know how you got so good with your winding.
