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:

Michelle has been crocheting. She made a griffin and a phoenix for her daughters.

Technically the griffin is still a work in progress as I forgot to attach her tail. 

For Halloween, in the interest of distancing, I made my daughters "floating" witch hats. We didn't have costumes for them, so they wore their Harry Potter robes from a couple years ago. That way, I could make these hats where it might look like they were casting "Wingardium Leviosa" on them. 

 

Michelle bought this cross stitch pattern for her daughter a couple years ago but decided to do it herself when her daughter didn't. She's glad her daughter has since picked out something else as this one has way too much gold thread, which can be difficult to work with. She still needs to get it framed.

 

Erica and Oli installed a new kitchen door! Hurray!

Erica also finished her Ginny Cardigan! What?! She is in love with this cardigan, she shawl collar is the length she wanted and it fits beautifully!

 

Erica finished her cotton underdress, the only thing it needs is the have the very inside seams turned over and sewn down.

 

Works in Progress:

Erica is working on the second pair of socks for herself.

 

She's also working on a hat for her dad for the holidays! This hat is being knit from her own handspun yarn.

Finally she has woven a damask sample to show to Her Highness Rogned. Her Highness loves the design and Erica will be weaving the trim in this design. Her Highness noted that the bottom is  a bit flat, so Erica has taken out the first line of the design and the crescents round out really well.

 

Finally Erica's spin direction study project is on hold after discovering she spun and plied one  of the yarns in the same direction! Whaw, whaw, whaw! :(
