For starters

I decided to dig out some older works since my camera batteries are dead and my charger is hidden in a box, anticipating our move.

#1 This is some sport weight merino I dyed about 1 yr ago.














#2 This here is one of the two hand dyed worsted merino. They will soon become legwarmers.

#3 Here is yarn that I spun into a worsted weight yarn, then I dyed it. You'll see in the next post the fingerless mitts I made for my youngest son.

#4 This also was spun and dyed by me. This became fingerless mitts for my oldest son, and a friend.



#5 This is my hand spun lace weight. Also hand dyed by me.


#6 I bought a beautiful roving at a wool festival back in Oct. I think it cost me about $6 for a couple of ounces. It's so soft. I spun this into a worsted weight also. This will make beautiful fingerless mitts, or a headband for me.












#7This is a picture of the mitts I made for a friend.








#8 These are sock I made for Noah last summer. He's growing so fast, he's almost outgrown them. They've been his favorite socks, and they've held up quite well.





#9 I knit this shawl out of Lorna's Laces (my favorite) sock yarn. It's so awesome. It was my first lace project. My knit group back in Cincinnati did it as a 'knit along'.






#10 My hand spun soy silk. DK weight I would say.


#11 hand dyed sock yarn-red








#12 hand dyed sock yarn-purple.







I have so much more to share, but I thought this would whet your appetite for more.
...Off to find my camera battery charger......
