Itchy, Pink, Watery Eyes

SPINNING

Not a lot got done this week with me having pink eye. I did manage to wind the rest of the blue wool into balls. I have 4 1/2 regular blue and one that I mixed with an off white. I really liked the way that one came out. I thinking that when I start the Brown beast I might ply all of it with the white. I like the tweed look it makes.



I have to say that I really like the ball winder that Bob got me. I have used it many times all over the house. The set up that I used this time was taking the wool right off the wheel. It's fast and easy to do.





KNITTING

I finished another stripe for the afghan. I also joined 2 together to see what it would look like. The next stripe that I will do is going to be solid blue.



LOOM

I've made some progress on my sock. I noticed a mistake that I will not worry about. The top cuff is longer than the other one. I guess I will make up the difference in the body of the sock.




Every spinner should have a cat. They make you smile. :-)
