In this episode: Off the needles and on; Tour de Fleece wrap up; notes from the production line; a new bag; a new spindle; good materials; and Bennet’s Boiled Potatoes.
Compared to some, mine was a paltry Tour de fleece output, still… I made time for fibre, and it did kickstart my spinning, which had been dormant since the move. From upper left, Yarn from Fellview Fibre rolags and my new spalted Beech drop spindle from Raven’s Flight UK (the shop is empty at present, but the seller is worth a follow); rolags and batts from Etsy seller ReaderArts (currently on holiday); a half a bobbin’s worth of Llanwenog; Cheers! You’ll find Scintillation and Christmas Lights on Ravelry.
Cushions galore! The Erhman cushion (left) is here. Thank goodness that’s nearly over.
Noodlehead bags are awesome. I’m using the Making Backpack pattern, but they’re all good, according to my sister, Pam. And Pam knows.
When I’m done with the backpack, I get to paint my kitchen in Farrow and Ball Dorset Cream. I’m looking forward to it.
