When Does the Hysteria Kick In?
Two Ewes Fiber Adventures
Thanksgiving finds us recording live and unedited in Salinas. It was a low key holiday with lots of food and family, but no hysteria. It’s Kelly’s favorite holiday. We cooked, we laughed, we knit, we spun, and we were able to get a podcast recorded. We recorded in the dining room so there is some echo-y sound, along with dog and family background noise.

Marsha’s Projects
Socks: Finished! Used The Humming Bird Moon Full Moon BFL Sock in the colorway Eye of Newt.
Nicholas Slouch Hat: by Kyle Kunnecke. Finished! Used Sincere Sheep Terroir worsted in rust and Full Circle Wool worsted in natural cream.
Socks: Using Schoppel-Wool Das Paar colorway Pigment Nebel plus Cloudborn in teal.
Oaxaca Journey Bag: by Araceli Gonzalez. Using Prado de Lana.
Sheridan Flats Spinning: Purchased 24 oz of 80/15/6 wool/mohair/silk roving in the colorway Kaleidoscope. The owner said to spin at a worsted weight for best results. Mill is Olympic Yarn & Fiber located in Cosmopolis, WA. Plied three singles but somehow I over plied it.
Rag Rugs: Wound warp for four rag rugs and started warping loom. Warp is 4” and 6” stripes in royal blue, green, and orange. Cut three colors of fabric strip so far and started weaving. I’d like to use more colors but only have 3 shuttles. I have woven about 18”.
Weaving Studio: It’s a work in progress.
Garden Redesign: I’ve created a project page.
Kelly’s Projects
Chenille Rugs Part 2 Finished all the chenille and currently warping for two rugs. Last year’s first episode was Dreaming about Chenille Rugs!
Finished all but the edging of my Sleeveless Vest. I got stalled due to having to pick up stitches around the arms and neck. There really is very little left to go on this project and it will be perfect for work.
Lots of spinning! First FO of 2026 is the Combed CVM. I got 224 grams of a fingering weight 3-ply. The spinning was so nice! It was worth the effort to do that combing. That isn’t quite the end of the fleece, but it might be the end of the work I do with that fleece. In total I ended up with just over 2 lbs of yarn between this project and the skeins I made from the Carded CVM.
I’m also spinning about a lb of Romney x Ramboullet that came from the NoCKRs destash. It’s a 3 ply that I hope will be about a worsted weight after washing. I have the first batch plied, but quite a bit left to spin.
Also working on Seatoller Socks by Louise Tillbrook. It’s a cabled sock pattern that I stashed a long time ago and never used.
Winter Weave-a-long
