tdf13 day 15

Wow. I seem to have missed that two week mark. I'll have to take a week's worth accomplishment photo tomorrow.
I'll also have to get a picture of what got spun today. For now you'll just have to look at this. Two ounces spun and N-plied.


And, when I've not been spinning (or procrastinating anything else), I've been crocheting yet another afghan.

The color is pretty screwed up in this picture. The colors are much deeper and darker. It's going to be pretty. I'm using cotton yarn that I bought to make a project bag but I frogged it because I wasn't happy with the way it was turning out. This little lapghan (lap sized afghan) will be yummy soft.

tdf13 day 14

I always wait until I'm too tired to think straight before I try to post these.
Anyway, I finally finished the pine. Yesterday I didn't spin at all but started another afghan project. Yeah I know, I'm insane. I'll have to wait for another day to post a picture of it since the lightening has all but gone. Just look at today's photo to see what I mean.

tdf13 day 12


Another day, another couple ounces of Pine spun.

Even more fun than spinning, are kitties!

Yesterday you got to meet Nimue.



Today, meet her brother, Gawain.



(we're pretty sure they are brother and sister anyway)


Gawain is not camera shy at all.


And makes a very good model.

Little sister Nimue isn't impressed.

tdf13 day 11

Not much spinning today I'm afraid.


I spent more time playing with our new family member.
Meet, Nimue


She's a little camera shy.


But loves to be loved up.


And ask for more lovin'.


She's a keeper.

tdf13 Day 10

Today was a spinning 'rest day' in tdf. As much as I love to spin, I needed the break. I had all kinds of plans to get things accomplished today but since I didn't get any sleep last night, I was a lazy useless bum all day long.

I did get a lot of planning done for a party we're having in December. I also made a bunch of yarn butterflies to use in the behemoth Intarsia afghan I'm knitting for one of my sons and one round knit. It takes nearly two hours to knit one round the thing is so big.

Tomorrow I get to do all the things I didn't get done today, including year end reports which are now late.

tdf13 day 9

I hardly spun at all today. All I did was ply the 6 ounces of Chestnut that it's taken me the past two days to spin. Tomorrow is a rest day and I have so much running around and office work to do that I probably wouldn't get to my wheel anyway.
