First Trial of Peg Loom with Store Bought Yarn Dyed by Me





My New Peg Loom!

My birthday present , a peg loom! (1/2 way completed) It will have larger sized pegs also, itching to try it today! Gives me something to do with all that yarn I've been spinning on my spinning wheel. Thank you to Tim for making it for me!

Carly's Backpack


My daughter, Carly, crocheted this backpack  using 3/4 of my handspun yarn and 1/4 store bought yarn. I love it. She's very creative and made it with a long tail like a "pixy" bag and lined it and added straps. The hat she's wearing was crocheted by me from my hand spun yarn also.

New Yarns I've Spun Recently

Started this blog to keep better track of what I spin and what dyes/fibers/techniques/yardage are used for each yarn. I've been trying to spin bigger quantities to knit/crochet/weave larger projects.
