New Yarn

I have hardly spun at all since this ordeal with my daughter's cancer began so this last month I was inspired to start spinning again (oh yeah, and having my friend's LOVELY Lendrum wheel - DROOL< DROOL! has helped a ton!) . This is what I finished today. I don't have a name for it and frankly can't remember for the life of me what the multi colored stuff was - just that it had angelina in it and it might be Merino. The blue/green stuff is some BFL I ordered from Somerhill Farm - oh this is lovely stuff and I even have a project for it but at the risk of revealing a Christmas present I'll be keeping that hush hush for now......

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.
