Ugggg! Hate when you cant remember anything!

Okay - so for the past several days I have been trying to get into this acct and do you think I can remember the password??
Goodness my mind is fried!
Anyhow - I have a bunch of yarns done - and will post a total here soon, but I did want to post some pics of what is now done:









This is a hat I shall be using for the Bedford Fall Foliage as a display peice..








I really like this and it turned out great - I felted it slightly to make it even warmer for the winter this year!




















And Rachels dress is DONE!!










Bodice detail..its very pretty.

















Anyhow I have been busy and dealing with having to get a new water heater, and I even went to a yarn mill this past week- Kraemer yarns!! Goodness I would love to live in the mill!
I will post about it next.
Hoping this week will be better!

Yarns

Ryan's Sweater and yarns

Rachel's Dress
Sharon's Yarns




So I have been a bit busy at the moment, working on the yarns, and baby dress too. I tried to get a pic of my Big Black Sock for Socks for Soldiers but umm taking pics of black socks is not really recomended inside...and have you been outside at all today? NO WAY! So those pics will have to wait till it cools down some. Humidity, heat and I do not mix.
Now to just get a bunch more spun..ohh the Sharon's yarns are silk Blue faced Leichester blend. She is going to use them to make apair of kilt hose. I can't wait to see them finished.
