After spending a lot of time working on my taxes, the bookkeeping on the business, revamping the business website to add better pictures of the fiber, and flying around 100 hours in the air (read that 50 hours duty time plus a week) the last couple of months, I finally made the time to spin the rest of the Merino/Mohair for my shawl. I got the yarn knitted into the pattern and I'm nearing the end of the shawl. I've enjoyed working on it when I've had the time to sit down and work on it.
I realized that the merino/Alpaca yarn I hand painted would sit in the house for years before I got to make anything from it, so I put it up for sale on ebay. It's in my store: Kendig Cottage.
My dh's granddad passed away in February so we all went to the family home for a week. He was 96 and had led a rich and full life with many grandchildren and greatchildren that he doted over. I had the flu the entire time I was there so I didn't get anything fibery done, but before I got sick, I managed to start a striped sock. I just love the wonderful sock yarns that are out there, I think I have a good selection in my own stash, and I'm trying to use up some of the stash. I'll post a picture later on as I get somewhere on the socks.
