My wonderful husband helped me to make a spindle! Here it is full of easter egg dyed wool :) ( star light, star bright... ) March 25th, 2005: Pictures! It's been a while since I updated so I thought I should post some pics.( Clicky for pic-y ) February 26th, 2005:
List of the top 110 banned books (of all time). Bold the ones you’ve read. Italicize the ones you’ve read part of. Underline the ones you specifically want to read (at least some of). Read more. Convince others to read some. #1 The Bible #91 Power and the Glory by Graham Greene February 7th, 2005: Beginner wheel help needed I am a very new beginner to spinning and I'm looking to purchase a wheel. I've only attempted to spin once for about 10 min. Of course I wasnt very good but I'm already hooked. I've been researching different wheels and I think I like the Baynes Upright wheel with double treadle http://www.pacificwoolandfiber.com/Bayn January 18th, 2005: Desperate for spinning lessons Hi all! I'm from Central CT and having the hardest time finding someone to teach me spinning. I've done searches on the web, called sheep farms, and contacted local yarn shops and have had very little luck finding someone within an hour's drive of me. I'm thinking maybe I just might get a starter wheel like Babe's and teach myself. I even tried emailing spinning guilds in CT but every email I find doesnt work, they always bounce back. Anyone have any advice or know anyone that would be willing to teach in the central CT area? Any help is greatly appreciated! Current Mood: December 26th, 2004:

Went to NYC with Mom today to see the Christmas Show at Radio City Music Hall. All I can say about the show is: Wow! Wow! Wow! Sooo great!!! Had time to walk around the city a bit and snap some cool pics. At the very end of the day we saw some big to-do over at Rockefeller Center and went to check it out. Kramer from Seinfeld was there to promote Seinfeld coming out on DVD. He was only 15' away! Very exciting for Mom & I. Hope y'all enjoy the pics :) http://photobucket.com/albums/v453/imee October 22nd, 2004September 15th, 2004: Sexy poncho I made a poncho for my best friend's birthday. I only have the one pic....wish I took more, but it was about a 1000 degrees in her kitchen that day! ( Read more... ) : Directions for Woodcutters hat I sat down and wrote up the directions for the woodcutters hat. The only thing that isnt too specific is how I did the brim. I've never been a really good pattern creator, I like following a pattern whenever possible. But trust me, the brim wasnt difficult. It did take a little trial and error but it was fun and didnt take much time at all. I think it took about 6 hours all together....that might even be stretching it. Ok, without further ado.....( Read more... ) September 14th, 2004: Camo woodcutters hat My hubby was good enough to model the hat I made for him today. He had asked for a hat with a brim and also a flap that came down over his ears and neck and this is the result: ( Woodcutters Hat ) I made the basic betty version hat from here: http://www.yarncat.com/snowboarder_skul August 16th, 2004: 2 new felted bags In my excitement to felt these I forgot to take pictures of the "before". ( felted goodness ) They're both done in hdc. I think I might felt them some more. They look more felted in person than in these pics for some reason.
