I Caved

My "goal" to use my stash before I purchased anything else has already fallen . I couldn't help myself! My friend's shop was taunting my with a beautiful braid of roving that was calling my name . Not my fault! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

All kidding aside, I want to do more drop spindle  spinning . I have a green superwash merino batt and some brown alpaca roving . Once I get a few more  hats knit I am going to alternate knitting and spinning again . I have some green yarn spun that has to be soaked and thwacked so I can knit it .

I have already sold three baby hats and my business is not officially launched! It's good for my soul to know I have a product people love and want to purchase! Right now my hats are fairly simple; I have some ideas for embellishment that will make them even more appealing . I am going to stay with the basic pattern I made and use different finishing techniques and embellishments to make them different .

Such fun .

Today is not going to be a big knitting day; I have major errand running to do before we get the winter mess coming our way . I'm sure I won't be able to resist the call of the needles all day, however!

Happy Knitting!

  1. well sounds like it was a purpose buy which is good. If you buy something there has to be a purpose for it, a plan and you have a plan which is perfectly fine.
