Episode 27 - Ode to Bad Lighting

There are a bit of show notes today because I refer to a lot of things that just are not on Ravelry or are on blogs specifically. Gotta give credit where credit is due!

Rockefeller is done! I haven't put any finished photos in Ravelry yet but the majority of the details are there. (I really need to get my projects updated on Ravelry. I've gotten really bad at that lately!)

Tardigrade Pattern: http://jpolka.blogspot.com/2011/09/tardigrade-pattern.html

Yes it is crochet. I'm working it on a size G with worsted weight Caron that I had laying around the stash. I'm hoping to put this in Ravelry but I haven't bothered yet. :D

Crown Mountain Farms: http://www.crownmountainfarms.com/html/animal-fiber/sw-merino.html

Yup... They have 89 colorways! I own sooo many of these and the ones I don't own I really want! (I've spun quite a few of these too) Under the Boardwalk is there and the colors are much better than any photo I could ever take! P.S. If you want an idea how the yarn looks after it's spun check out this link: http://www.crownmountainfarms.com/html/sockhop.html

Oh, and if you wanted the link for "How Sock Hop is Spun" check right here!

Think I got all of the important things! If you have never spun CMF's stuff you seriously should check them out. Making these show notes was dangerous... I made a wish list of colors I want from their superwash merino. The stuff spins like a dream!

Episode 26 - Dori Returns!

We're back and Dori is here! There is a little spinning, a bunch of knitting and a whole bunch of enabling. :)



I will warn you, we were a little rambly and I know I forgot to give the details on some of the projects I was working on! Oops!

Don't forget that the Winter SALCALKAL is open and any cowls and we'll be drawing prizes for two categories! Handspun finished between December and February and finished cowls and socks knit or crocheted out of your handspun during the same time frame!

If you want to get in touch feel free to join A Spinner's Whirled group on Ravelry! As always, feel free to send us a message on plurk or Ravelry with any questions you have. :)

Episode 25 - Goodbye 2012

The last episode for 2012 is another solo one! Lots of projects and other things this go around. I'm surprised I was able to yak for a whole half hour by myself!

Hope everyone has a fabulous New Year! May all your fibery dreams come true in 2013!!!

Episode 24 - Super Short!

Just a quick one this week! Dori is busy with work and I can only get so off task by myself. ;)





Don't forget to head over to the Ravelry group to enter the New Year's Resolutions for your Handspun/Spinning Thread! I'll be drawing a winner to give away a pattern the next time I record. :)
