Spinning around and round

Published August 14, 2009 in Yarn 1 Comment

But first…a Hubert update. As of my last weigh in for this round Hubert is 27.2 pounds! That is 27.2 pounds lost since Memorial Day!!

Now on to the spinning! I stopped by TYF the other night and picked up a niddy noddy, an extra bobbin for the Joy, and some Pagewood Farms BFL in teal. So soft and so pretty! So far it is spinning up very nicely. I got through a few episodes of All Creatures Great and Small while doing the first single. The plan is a 2nd single and then a two-ply.

And here are a few more yarns that I’ve finished up in the past month or so. Next up is actually figuring out what weight the yarns are. At least now with the niddy noddy I know the length.

Hubert update and more!

Well Hubert is finally just over what he was on my LIW (last injection weight) from my last round so I’m all caught up in 13 days. I am down just over 22 pounds so far. Hurrah.

In shop news, I have a bundle of Petite Blythe Carry Bags cut out. Also, I have a custom order for two little bags that hopefully will be quilted tonight. I know there should be photos, and I did take one this morning but time ran out before I had to leave for work.

Oh dear and I started to clean up the sewing studio. Lots of fabric that was forgotten about in little piles. That is now in one place to be gone through and folded properly. The good news is I found that I had bought some more jersey for the face covers so that is one thing off my shopping list.

Stock is low in the Etsy shop but there is plenty to see in the ArtFire shop so Blythe owners go take a looksee. *shameless plug*

On the homefront…bad kitty was at it again I think on the carpet. The litter boxes have been moved and the back room’s door is closed so we will see how that goes. If it continues then back to the vet we go to make certain it is behavior and not something else wrong.
