Each year is a little less snow time and a lot more time in the yards. This is not a bad thing at all! I can't believe that we are just a few days from the end of the year.

No worries though, now the socks fit great and I can see the pattern better. The yarn is Deyebolical's Hidden Tiger. Love this yarn. It is very soft and feels great on my feet. I am not sure where I am on my Kauni Cardi. I think when I cut the armhole steeks I messed it up big time. I am nearly positive; I am just waiting for we can fix that or start over. Fortunately, Lawn Guy ta...

Look what Lawn Guy bought me for Christmas!! I feel very special to be the proud owner of this little Kiwi. The wheel is very easy to use. I have been doing a lot of practice yarn. But here is a sampling of the last wool that I spin. I have already washed it to set the twist. Its a 100% Merino and a beautiful color. Spinning is a lot of fun!!!!!!!!
