Well , that didn't last long. I did a week's worth of spinning and then the kids had me stopping and starting too much so I had to give it a rest. I decided to start an insanely simple lace project that will also stash bust at the same time. It's a throw or maybe a table cloth or maybe a shawl out of this raw silk I purchased way back. It was one of my first attempts of rainbow dyeing and I had to do a little overdyeing to correct the mistakes so it's really murky and dull. I used Lily Chin's pattern called Gotham circular lace and it is so fast and easy with very little brain cells required. I also love the round shape. Perfect easy knitting for this holiday week.
Here is a photo of a completed booze bag. I whipped up a couple of the out of stray skeins and felted them. They are good gifts if somebody comes a knocking.
I promised myself to stop photographing my food, but my neighbors sent over this bread stocking that was totally cute. So here is a photo just for the cuteness factor.
Lastly, Happy Solstice! Here is a sunrise that I took and want to dye. The sky is amazing in the winter!
