Hectic Heaven

the fiber finally arrived..

My box of wool got here on wens,  I went to pick it up after work and I could tell the box must be stuffed full.  I am really glad I did'nt open it in at the post office parking lot.... When I got home I cut the tape and the wool monster grew,  there was a bag at the bottom of the box that was wrapped in platic and looked almost like a bale,  when I tore into the bag the wool monster grew and grew.  I have bags and bags of fiber sitting around the front room, it all came from one little 2x2x2 foot box...Sorting it was just like Christmas.. finding pretty colored pieces of wool throughout it...

Last night I carded some of the wool and felted a bag,  it will be perfect for rendezvous, I think I nice inkle loom strap is called for...

I finished playiing and blocking my alpaca/quiviut yarn and its really nice... I want to make a scarf out of it..  The yarn I was navajo plying came out really nice to.. they are both  thick yarns...

DH had some kind of attack the other night, he was in such extreme pain I really wanted to take him to the hospital...he did go to the doc the next day.. I guess they decided he has diverticulitis, he also has a bad cold, which I have come down with now... it seems to have settled in my chest.. so this morning I have used a couple of mustard plasters and am drinking hot tea and  taking a spoon full of honey to help sooth my throat...hopefuly It doesnt get any worse... I dont have time to get sick.. I have wool to  felt/spin.  lol

It started snowing this morning and its kind of sticking.. we are not supposed to have snow today, but as long as it doesnt get to bad that DD cant get home, I enjoy watching it out the window..  It should turn to rain later today... hope you all have a wonderful weekend...
