Happiness (1000)

Six hours of dyeing with my favorite dyer.



It doesn't get much better than this.






The artist at work.



Ta-da! So cool. I'm happy just writing this post. Such a fabulous knitting weekend it was.



And look! I dyed that! You know me and blue. I pretty much love this!


The yarn is BMFA Geisha. Yum.



And this is 100% 2ply silk. Another yummy.

I wouldn't mind dyeing yarn more often if it was all set up for me and clean up was taken care of (Stephen and Debra are rockstars!!). And of course, Tina's yarn. Perfect. Well, I take that back. I could do without the fun fur. Yes. It was high-quality fun fur that Tina had us dye, but still fun fur nonetheless. I'm thinking of turning my fun fur into some type of pet. Or I may mail it back to Tina tied with a pretty bow. hehehe.

Happy Dyeing!!

More Knot Hysteria!

I was home sick today. Too bad this wasn't my view. I think I would have felt a wee bit better.



Oh, hey, did I show you the fabulous goody bags we got at Knot Hysteria! Stitch markers, yarns, amazing stuff!! Thank you to all the vendors who donated!


I finally got a chance to wear my Blackberry Brambles hat in The Plucky Knitter MCN Worsted, colorway Lipstick.


My Jingle Bell Rock Cotty socks had some fun during show and tell.


These will be a Christmas gift, although I don't think I'll be doing too much holiday knitting this year.




I think this card from Tilly Flop says it all.



Yes. Those are straight needles. I am attempting to practice lever knitting as Steph showed us in class. I can be more efficient. I can be more efficient. I can be more efficient. I hate straight needles. I can be more efficient.


Early morning in Port Ludlow. Sigh.

Happy Knitting!
