I “reorganized” my yarn shed recently and found a ball of my hand spun wool in a box that the silverfish had gotten into. One of the few really fine yarns i’d managed to make. Most of my handspun tends to be bulky ‘art’ yarn so I was bummed to find this in bits. The bits were reasonably long so i wove on the 4″ Multi loom, joining as I went. Now I’m working around each square with some of Sis’s handspun. I’ve never done a slip stitch edge, but trying new stuff here. I’ll likely use a different yarn to assemble these. Don’t know now many i have but probably a smallish project. Katt may get a new chair pad. I’m going to toss it in the washer once assambled. There may be damage i didn’t find so figure a bit of felting could be a good thing. Maybe a time waster project, but it relaxes me not to have a Goal! It’s free time!

Meanwhile we are making looms, getting trips to fiber fairs set up. Things like reservations for the trailer, fees and classes, you know.  And hoping we can afford diesel for those trips!  And, of course, the garden.

We started “spring” with a warm spell which got me all excited to be sure I was not late late last year, so I planted peas and cabbage but also started tomatoes and peppers. Then it got cold and rainy, a couple times even snow. Them it would warm up for a few day befpre going back to rain and or frost- and a lot of wind this year. So needless to say, those tomato and pepper plants are reaching indoor limits! They are practically trees! We are going to have to plant them out today. He has covered cages for them but they are not  likely to be happy. I’ve started a few more in hopes that they won’t out grow the pots before summer happens! When it comes to weather these days  “You can’t win for losing” sure applies!

Hope you get time to both garden and weave. Both enjoyable…when they aren’t being stressful!  lol
