Fiber Arts Projects

 I finished  4 fiber arts projects this week.  It must mean on some level that I am starting to feel better.  

2 stranded knitting on U.S. size 15 needles.  

I finished the red hat on Thursday.

                                                          I finished the purple hat on Tuesday.

                                        I finished the combination Tunisian and regular crochet scarf tonight.

Projects Half Done

 It was a day for drop spindles and Tunisian Crochet.  I am almost done with the first ply of a lace weight yarn of Striken Lock. I got a four ounce or 100 grams worth to try out. I fell in love with the roving    It has taken almost all my feather weight drop spindles to complete the project.  As soon as I am done with the first ply then it will be time to get the yarn off the spindles to ply.  

I also made progress on two Tunisian Crochet projects. One is a charity scarf that I am completing the edging.  The other is my advent calendar from last year.  I am almost finished with the first of 5 sections.  The next section will be solid white.  Then the next color section, followed by white and the last color section followed by a white boarder.  

If you have not guessed it already, I am working on my Ph.D in knitting and spinning = projects half done. I think the projects half done have won. 

Of course I had a bad body day and spent most of the day resting.  

Catching Up

 I honestly did not realize that getting rid of 60% of my yarn and about 30 % of my spinning fiber with cause so much backend work. Now all my spaces need to be re-organized. I am doing it in 15 minute increments. I still have not gotten back all my energy from earlier in the year. But I can definitely see progress.

This is also leading to more knitting and Tunisian crochet projects getting completed. I have finished more projects in the past month than I have finished in the previous four months.
