I Love Carding and Creating Art Batts to Spin Into Luscious Yarn!!

Today was one of those damp dreary days without color. It’s on these days that I create my own colors and blends. I wanted to dye fiber,but I also wanted to be working in my studio. I love how these turned out and can’t wait to spin them into yarn!!

Red, Pink, and Burgundy batts waiting for their turn to be spun.

I know I’ve not blogged in awhile!

I’ve not blogged in awhile because the farmers market season got into full swing and I’ve been super busy creating things, restocking the things that do sell, and working hard at beefing up my displays. I’ve not had the best luck with displays and I really do hate putting up and taking down my tent. Natural lighting is what suits my fiber products best and I would prefer to display in natural lighting.

Now that I’ve taken a few weeks off, I’ll try and whip up a post sometime tomorrow about my latest adventures in the wonderful world of card-weaving!!

Til then, get some fiber and get spinning!
