Knitting Dragonflies

I like this Etsy Seller and Blogger, Create A Thought, shop here , and she blogs here. She creates journals, greeting cards and other items. I have a fondness for journals and cards, when we are so quick to send an email, it is nice to receive a card in the mail, and put your thoughts down on paper, along with some doodles. I like her Art Book Journal Kit It includes everything you need to make a journal yourself or would be a nice gift. Price $10.00 Good for a knitting journal? This Funny Frog Mini Journal is a good size 3x5 I would put it in my purse and have something pretty to scribble my lists in. Price $4.40 She has many more and other interesting items. Take a look.

Kool aid dyeing looked so fun. And me with three skeins of handspun. This is the first attempt at spinning and plying on my first wheel, a Lendrum. This was some merino that I purchased at a fiber festival. I bought about 16 oz. my plan was to use this to practice with on my first wheel.  I had no live person to teach me, but many online people , in addition to You Tube. Usually when I have a day off from work I have a long to-do list. Well I still have that list, but decided that today was going to be a fibery day!  After reading some on the internet and asking for some advice, I was off to buy some Kool Aid. I thought I wanted yellow but decided on orange. Right now, I am cooling the water, but I am anxiously waiting to see how it looks! Technorati Tags: Kool Aid Dyeing , Handspun yarn , knit , spin
