But! If Christmas comes in January somewhere in the universe, then I'm there! Judy sent me a scrumptious fiber goody package. I am very excited because they are all from breeds I've never worked with before.
Starting at the top and working clockwise: Falkland (white), Black Welsh, Texel (white), Cheviot (light grey), Norwegian (white), and Massam (grey). These are tops which are beautifully prepared and just beg to jump right to the wheel.Currently on the wheel is nothing, so how will I be able to resist? In preparation for the wheel, is the black Rambouillet, which fortunately survived Rascal's infatuation. It has been washed and is becoming luciously soft rolags.
I love having several projects going on at the same time. I firmly believe in taking frequent breaks to rest my eyes and change my position and posture. What better way to take a break than to switch to the next project! ;)

Yay! They got there :-), Wanda got hers too, that just leaves poor Evelyn, I think the snow boggets have eaten them!
Enjoy.

What a lovely goody box! I'm still envious of your new dishtowels. :-) T.
That's a really nice display of roving. I haven't done any spinning in a few months. Maybe coming here will inspire me to start spinning again!
Very nice bundles of fibre! Just looking at them makes me all goosebumpy! I could hardly imagine what spinning them would be like. You must spin soon so that we can have a report!
All your posts have been wonderful! I have enjoyed them and been inspired! I am getting my loom all set up again...now I just have to figure out what I want to weave, if I have the materials to do what I want (Isn't it always that you're inspired to do something, but don't have that warp, weft, fiber in your stash to do it with?)
Thank you so much, Kathy! I would love to know what you come up with. Inspiration is the best part of the process.
