Catch up week...

Springtime... warmer, longer days and I thought I had escaped the Winter bugs, but no.... I have felt a bit under the weather this week, so have taken the opportunity to sit & catch up on all of the projects that I had started but hadn't finished so I can clear my head to finish the current design I'm working on...


I finished spinning up some gorgeous sock pencil roving from Vintage Purls.  This seemed really thin when I was plying it - so I decided to 3-ply instead of 2-ply it...  I ended up with a nice fluffy and thick sock yarn rather than the usual fingering weight.



I also finished weaving my first project on my 8-shaft loom - a scarf....  I learnt a lot and need a lot more time working on it but am pleased with the results

and I completed a couple of necklaces, below, which have been put on my Etsy Shop
