Finished objects. Previously, Michelle talked about how her daughter was weaving a rug. Her younger daughter also wants to weave one, but all we had left was white rug yarn. So we dyed it. It's red, fuschia and purple. Works in Progress:   Michelle did some spinning. This was roving dyed back in her Washtenaw Wool dyeing days.

Finished Objects
Erica has finished one object! This handpun yarn. It was a great project and she is glad to have one FO.
 
THE BIN

 

 

 

 

Works in Progress

Michelle continues to knit on the test knit she volunteered to do.

 

 

Michelle tried making rolags with her blending board. 

This is a Shetland fleece she obtained a while back. She planned to blend it with a darker Merino also from a while back.

 

 

 

She opened the locks a bit then ran them though the wool picker her dad made for her. This opened the locks further.

 
She loaded her blending board with some of the lighter Shetland and darker Merino and started rolling it off into rolags.

 

 
The finished rolags.

 

 
Erica has started spinning another one-of-a-kind, Once in a Lifetime colourway from Fiber Optic Yarns! It is beautiful! 

The Dueling Club Fingerless Mitt for TJ is coming along nicely!

Here is the cloth Erica's student is weaving. :)

Erica's handspun study warp #2 will be used as photographed below, a 3/1 twill, which really emphasizes the handspun yarn over the structure of anything else.
