The Young, Mysterious King


El Mysterioso Rey Jr.
I consider it a public service when he wears this to the grocery store.



We're on a prairie restoration cycle at Franconia Sculpture Park and we burned the fields in that service earlier this week.

Awesome.


Miss Julie had a birthday!

In her honor
(1) Claire the Lamb produced this bag o' fleece which
(2) I (in her honor) spun into yarn.


13 oz prepared fleece spun into 576 yards 12 wpi 2 ply sport weight yumminess.

Color - natural

Texture - soft and bouncy

:-)

Destined to be knit into what I hope will be an appropriately honorable Christmas gift.



And more spinning.

"Insect Wings"
Hello Yarn Fiber Club
February 2008
10 oz (how I love the double club) BFL


Spun into:
323 yards
10.5 wpi
DK Weight

Julie Frick energized a great devotional cowl worship on Ravelry and Flickr.

After a secret gift project is complete (not for you Miss Julie, not yet :-))
Insect Wings will become a cowl.

Might be better if we added more chocolate.


V. carefully...


Wonder if this frosting's any good. Let's check it.


Hits the spot!


Yes - it's still snowing... in April.
Those are Hammie's prints.
He really wants the squirrels to get off his damn porch.
It's a cat thing.
