I was able to back track and re-post the photos for most of my blog entries. Only the first few months have no photos so I’ll have to figure out where those images are. That kinda sucks.

On to happier news….a finished pair

On a non knitting related news, I’ve finally gotten the nerve up to take photos in public. It was sooo weird. And I felt so sneaky. I just thought, heck, if I’m gonna get better at taking photos, I better get in the practice, so just do it!

Cute jellys

Girly Jellys

I love cute kawaii stuff. These are too adorable!! They contain small jelly snacks. Some have a solid piece of friut in the middle. These images were taken at my local china town supermarket. Fun stuff! 

Chickens in a row

This is such a daunting task. But the good news is I think I only have a year left of back tracking to restore all the images. Any one out there a hug giver? I could sure use one.

Yup, that’s what’s been captivating my interest. Here are some of my latest spins. These weren’t done on my drop spindle, but on my nifty new toy. The Little Meggie. It’s suppose to be a kick spindle, but I just put it on a table and spin with my hand.

    Handspun yarns Little Meggie

    To fuel my new obsession, I had a fun hand dyeing/painting session in my back yard. Here are my new lovely rovings.  The great part is that they’re superwash merino. YUM!!
