If there were ever a time of year that's busier than others, it's definitely spring for me. (Not that the weather has given us much "spring" but we work with what we have.)
The tubs have been put to good use in the recent days - there's been a Gotland X that's been washed, FINALLY finished washing all the Cheviot, and am working my way through a Merino X right now. To add to the washing, I've taken on a processing/spinning project that deals with a Jacob fleece. (And a lovely one it is!) Time to start figuring out what I want to dye it as I continue to work on the carding/combing of the fleece. Half the fleece is mine, so I'm just trying to get done the part I have to send back - including the spinning and dyeing.
And as I dye the Jacob, I'll also be throwing in my friend Gypsy's yarn. She's had some of my other dye jobs, and this time has requested warm colors - so madder root and something else... Going to try giving hers a partial overdye.
Now to the "day" job that's paying the bills for the moment.
Thanks for stopping by!
