In this episode, I have some knitting spinning and some sewing, a tale about some dichotomy in my life and I am all spun up about Socktober.
Updates:
- All the fleece are out of my house. Kind of.
- I recorded during my last camping trip to the Sand Dunes Pools
- Big things are happening in the craft room now that the fleece are done.
- I did launch the new line of tools in the Etsy shop.
Spin a Tale
I am fascinated by the dichotomy in my crafting life. I am all about high and low tech.
Spinning my Wheels
Knitting
- I talk a bit about the PROBLEM with Plain Jane Glory. I am going to have to make a second sample.
- I finished the boyfriend socks and started on Good Intentions. Good Intentions are going slowly because I am change the pattern to be a color work pattern. I am not sure I will finish these in October.
- I also cast on for a Plain Jane Cardigan.
Spinning
- I am over skirting fleece but I am not done. I can see the finish line. I spend some time here talking about each of my alpaca and their individual fleece characteristics.
Sewing
- I got itty bitty a sewing machine for her birthday and her first project is a doozy. Here is a link to the pattern she decided on: Clown Pants.
All Spun Up
It is Socktober! I am making socks on my primary machine and getting ready to host a sock knitting day at the homestead.
Spin Off
No major events planned. I will probably just be getting ready for our lowkey holidays. I am focusing more on the craft room and refining and curating my things. I really want to get the room more usable and effective.
