Here are some things that I have been working on over the last couple of weeks:
I finished my Aunt Bea apron and did a little photo shoot. Here's me, trying to look domestic. Not buying it, huh?
Okay, how about some hot appetizers?
Remember my dye experiment from left over party streamers?
Here is how it spun up. Pretty good results from a pile of tattered crepe paper. I think it needs to become another scroll lace scarf.
I am still working on my retro rib socks.
I decided to help Jerry out with picking out a Mother's Day gift. After browsing around on Etsy (a very dangerous place), I found this lovely lady. Actually it's a corriedale fleece, from a sheep named Petunia. Isn't she stunning?
Here is a close up of her locks. I can't wait to play with the hand cards , and maybe the drum carder. This should keep me busy for a few months. Good times, good times!

I love the apron and the crepe paper dyeing is amazing! I enjoyed reading your blog, you are so multi talented!
Enjoy processing and spinning Petunia, I find her and the other Corriedales an easy and relaxing spin.
