Alright life has been weird. Trying to balance myself, a SN kiddo with SDI and all the fun that comes with that and my own health issues has been more then I had placed my money on it being.
the year is new and I'm trying to pick up my pace again.
This year my goal is to get my spinning caught up before the shearing season hits, and then keep on top of it. I also want to start using up my current yarn stash and to get to using what I spin up. Today with one of my christmas gift cards I bought a book called 'knit kimono' by Viki Square.
I thought about picking up 'hand knit holidays' but it would have been more then my gift card would allow for. (I'm going to go back and pick it up once I find the gift card that the kids seem to have taken off with.) I liked the solistice table runner that was in the book! Not to mention the tree ornaments. I could really clean out some of my scrap balls of yearn with those little bad boys!
Right now I'm planning to spin up a bunch of my llama wool and knit it into some nice warm kimonos. The power prices are all wacked out and we've had to turn the heat down. That doesn't work well for me since I get cold *really* easy.
So that is where things stand.
In the mean time I've been doing a liot of writing. I might talk about that later. But now I have to get a move on on my current knitting project from the winter issue of Knitter's. I'm working on 'all aboard'. ;)
