Down but not out






I have been sick again! Last week the crud came back and came back hard, running a fever and not been holding anything down it has been rough. Thank goodness I have next week off I can relax, (still do homework) but relax all the same. So here are some pictures of projects that I have been doing. One is of the Debbie Bliss Celtic Knit the chille jacket, Emily's fingerless gloves, the two huge wool balls, one completed fingerless glove for Jun. I'll be posting more this week because I'll be dyeing the wool.

Sick

I have been sick for two months! Which has not been fun at all. I have been doing papers, tests, this month has been keeping me busy.

Emily's gloves are finally done! I'll be posting them next weekend when things have settled down from school. I am now making Jun's gloves, I visted a store called Denware Studios. I bought a new tool for spinning and bought some nice green wool yarn and an ounce of pink fiber that I am combining with the brown for Jun's gloves.

I have the first part of my jacket done now working on the second. Also picked up a large ball of yarn to make Grumperina's socks which were featured in the this issuse of Interweave knits. I also bought some fiber from If you love to spin a dream, super wash merino a nice white.

Last night I saw a book at the Yarn Lady, that I am going to save up for, Spin to Knit, I saw this shrug that I want to make. True it's going to take some time to spin but I believe it will be worth it. Also from the store owner from Yarn Lady Gaby I bought two very huge fiber balls. I don't know what to make yet, but over spring break I plan to dye some of it and see what colors I can get out of it. That's it till next weekend.
