Every day divisible by 5 (oh yes there is math) will have a theme.
Here's a tentative schedule, On the:
- 5th: Spinning
- 10th: Classes and other learning
- 15th: Books!
- 20th: Events
- 25th: Finished Objects
- 30th: On the needles
But, since I missed classes and other learning I thought I would clue you in on what I've got in hopper.
I've put out my April - June teaching schedule for Fuzzy Wuzzy Yarn. I'm teaching Navigating Ravelry, and my knitting friend N let me test drive it on her. She liked it, and left feeling a little better about what's out there. I'm teaching sock classes, TAAT on 2 Circs, Beginning, and Toe Up. Then a summer project class. It's a keepsake Wedding Garter! I've given these away at a couple showers, I think it's been well received and I love picking out colors that I think the bride will love. I think my students will too.
I am taking a class too, it's from Craftsy. I got Felicia Lo's Spinning Dyed Fiber and it has been very helpful. I love the platform, and I love watching Felicia spin while I'm drifting asleep. I hope she doesn't take umbrage with that, but I also find myself treadling along with her too. And I was cleaning off my bobbins, spinning a Frabjous Fibers bump of Merino and Nylon Sparkle in color Trapeze. I was intending to chain-ply it, but one of my bobbins was under-spun (Thanks for the feedback Felicia) and so I made a true 3-ply and chain plied the rest. Here are my results:
The chain plied is on the left and the fractal plied is on the right. Stunning right?
