Finished objects:
Michelle spun two fleeces in the last two weeks. The first was a white Icelandic fleece. She now has 260 yards of 3 ply bulky yarn.
Michelle finished three smores that she started back in October.
Erica had to stay home from work with a cold, which was good, because it allowed the front door to be installed! Here is her Finished Object (finished by the door installers not Erica herself)!!!!
Michelle is working on a 2D needle felted picture of a lighthouse.
Michelle is working on washing an Icelandic fleece. This is Evan's fleece that belongs to Thing 2. She wants me to spin and knit it for her. We'll get the drum carder soon to prepare the fiber.
Michelle is also using up some spring Icelandic fleeces to make dryer balls. She tried to get a picture that shows the break well. In this picture, the cut end is on the left with the tips on the right. There is a pale line close to her finger that is the break line. This is what makes it unsuitable for yarn. The fiber can be pulled apart along that line, but it is still good for felting.
Erica has been working on her tweed yarn for her 51 Yarns study. She carded together some SW Targhee (brown semisolid) and some green silk! She spun the carded fiber all to one bobbin.
Erica is still working on her Wool N Spinning Breed and Colour Study. Below are her Organic Polwarth singles. The final photo includes both bobbins of singles, next to an original combed top in the same colourway. Photos top to bottom are Graffiti, Graffiti Interrupted, and singles and the braid next to each other.
Here is the sock for TJ in progress, this is being knit cuff down in a Glitz sock base on Signature Needle Arts Needles.
