I've been BAMBOOzled



Not really - I began spinning one of my two new batts of Bamboo at the Fiber Farm Tour. WOWZA! This is Chocolate Liquer (spelling is wrong sorry!) from Loop at Etsy.com and it is stunning. I wish the spun up pic was better. My plan is to 2ply with some yummy Merino from my wonderful friend Wendy and her sheep Molly. This is gonna be some serious eye candy.

I've seen this stuff in person and it is so yummy I think I'll go home and eat chocolate. Do you think it's time to put "new camera" on your Birthday/Christmas/Mother'sDay/NoSpecialOccasionWeJustHadExtraMoney gift list? Would love to see the details of your spinning. Pfftthh, had I known I could have seen it earlier. What are you going to ply it with, if anything?

I think NEW camara is definitely on the list of things wanted in the near future.
SAD - this was the new camara....

Roving - I LOVE this stuff.

I just couldn't help but but another picture up of this roving. I am tickled at how this turned out and I just cannot wait to spin it up!!!! The colors are lovely and I love the way they work together. NOW I just need to come up with a catchy name for the colorway. REALLY don't know what to call it. Nothing has just jumped out at me like Johnny Jump Ups or Mixed Berries. I have other ones in my head all name but this one just HAPPENED!!! That' s what happens when roving just jumps in the dyepot and wants to be a certain color (or three).

Grey Hat out of 100% Angora Rabbit

Image
This picture is kind of dark but it is of an 100% Angora rabbit hat crochet for a friend of mine. She asked if I could make this hat and sent me her rabbit hair, already spun. This is the finished product. She requested a "flapper" style hat so here it is Jeannie!!!It turned out pretty good considering I was pretty worried at a certain point because the brim kept curling. Once I added the weight pulled it down and the brim did what it was supposed to do. It is on it's way to Colorado as I write this.

I am Finally spinning again - It's been WAAAAAAAY too long so now I"m in a serious creative phase again - there is not enough time in the day. This is 350 (or more really!) yards of 2ply yarn from Silver CVM and Silk dyed in emerald green/Violet and Turqoise. It is for sale but if someone doesn't snap this up I may have to use it in a weaving project it is so pretty. $35.00 +Shipping.
