I came, I saw, I dyed.

November 1st, 2006

It has been a hectic week, so far. (But, Yay! it is Hump Day!)
I’m seemingly burried under wool.

This is about 6lbs of roving I’ve done this week.
Less what is already put away, or spun up.
Some of it heads out soon to Scout re:Exciting news & some of it stays here & some of it goes on my fiber page.
I also did up about 3lbs (yes, three pounds) of sock yarn. (That will be up later this week, too.)

Today, I need to stick to my to-do list, or else, everything crumbles!
Yesterday, the big Trick or Treat thing threw a wrench in the works.
I tried to take some cues from the Mafia, and train the kiddlets to “Go for the orange squares”. It only partly worked….. ;0

If anyone is local-ish (or feel like trecking to Vt.) & interested, in December, I’m going to be guest speaker at a local-ish spinning guild.
I’ll be discussing pushing thresholds for creative development (or something like that.)
You can Contact me for the detials.

Happy Hump! (day)

    quite the lively pile o stuff there!!!!
    looks like something that would keep one (or two! or more!) warm on cold nites, sorta like a fiber fireplace. um, without the matches. ;)

    holy CRAP, girl, that’s *some* productivity you’ve got there with your dyepot(s)!!! beautiful, as always. must be less humid in vt; that load would take a month of sundays to dry in our moist air.

    Wow! Each and every one is so beautiful! Is it the sugar in those little orange squares that keeps you going?
