Mint Melody

A twist (Ha ha) off the Green With Envy.. I spun and plied 210 yards tonight, with probably 200 or so more to go. I have more Tangerine Dream in the que also. Plus a surpise Romney style! (and I'm not talking Mitt Romney ;))

Happy Thanksgiving!

.. A little late due to company, and of course Thanksgiving dinner!



Despite the festivities, I did get several skeins completed, or partially spun. Tonight though, we just have one new picture of Tangerine Dream, a new colorway. This skein is already sold, but I have another almost done, and will be redyeing roving soon to do more. If you have requests for colors you'd like to see as we build up our stock of yarns, just drop me a note.

Pictures :)

To the right is Sky Blue. A 2 ply hand painted skein. I have 2 available. Doesn't this just beg to be made into a baby blanket? Sky Blue is Merino/viscose superwash!











Here is some 2 ply Merino/Viscose. Hand painted. I'm calling this one Green with Envy.

2 skeins each approx 170 yards. This will be for sale.

Christmas is coming!!

Today, we decorated our tree, and also taught some little spinners to spin on my Little Louey Louet wheel. They had a fun time learning, and make Pokemon ornaments out of the yard they spun. Kids are great spinners (since they learn so much easier than adults) and they're so creative, the overspun yarn is perfect in their minds and wonderful for a craft!


While not decorating and singing Christmas songs, I managed to finish plying 3 skeins of hand painted yarn. I tried a new plying method, and though the first time it was a pain, the next 2 went easy. These skeins have a little more interest due to the fact I was learning so the ply isn't quite as even, but they are gorgeous all the same! My helper also finished a hat out of green and white merino. It's beautiful! The next project is to get my loom up and running. Yes, it came home! And yes, it is gorgeous!
