Lately

Nothing much has been happening lately. Work is busy, so everything else (like blogging) takes a back seat. I've been doing a bit of metalworking, and have been working on a design for a ring featuring an ancient greek coin and greek motifs.

Knitting and spinning are proceeding, and I've actually finished a few things. For example, this skein of 4-ply targhee, dyed by Mountain Colors in the Evergreen colorway. It's on its way to becoming a reversible hat.

Then there's the not-quite-4-ply grey border leicester and the Grafton Fibers corrie ...

... and the Persimmon Tree, still on the bobbin.


Last week, those wild and crazy guys from Wooly Knob sent back Captain Spalding, Cubby, and Garth, all perfectly-processed. Garth was my sight-unseen purchase from a gal in Ohio, and shipped directly from her barn to WK. It's a soft, heathery brown BFL x border leicester that will look wonderful spun up.

Not too bad for nothing much happening lately.
