FOs:
Koolhaas by Jared Flood using Texas Panhandle Dyeworks Merino Silk DK in Lost in the Woods. I had finished this in the last episode but this is blocked and dried (and set the dye a bit!)
2 pairs of socks using Tin Can Knit's Rye Sock pattern. I used little bits of leftover Lana Grossa Meilenweit and Nomadic Knits Little Weasel.
Tour De Fleece Spins:
On the wheel is Hello Yarn Lanthorn and Southern Cross Fibres
Local Rambouillet from Hyer Wool in NM. Will possibly knit Ysolda Teague's Hallimede shawl.
A Tinkle and a Glint from Hello Yarn on SW Targhee. Will possibly knit Grey Gardens by Kate Burge and Rachel Price from Knitty Spring Summer 2013
WiPs:
Sea Glass Sweater by Wool & Pine using tons of leftovers!
Cardigan for Mark using Ann Budd's The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns. Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Cranberry. Almost done!!
Goth Christmas socks (no pattern, just boring plain socks!) using Texas Panhandle Dyeworks Sock in Nine colorway
Navy 2x2 ribbed socks (no pattern) using Cascade Heritage Sock. Project bag from Madderroot Maine
Framed by Andrea Mowry using Peace Fleece in olive root and some handspun falkland Spunky Eclectic "Forever Friends" and Nest "Chanteuse"

Upcoming project ideas:

Andrea Mowry's Shift cowl kit using Spincycle Dyed in the Wool Ghost Ranch, Wild Horses and Salty Dog from Hacer Santa Fe

Nomadic Knits British sock "Neville"
Knitter's Nightmare "Slime and Snails"
Hedgehog Fibres Skinny Sock "Anemone"
Plies and Hellhounds "Apple Fritter"

I know things are still stressful and tough for you and your community, but it's great to see you back making videos. You appear excited about your projects and your future plans - yay! ❤ I'm uninspired by my current project bc I need to go back and fix a mistake, which is like a mental block for me. 😢 So, you've inspired me to start a new one just so I'm knitting again. 😊
Thank you, Kristin! It feels good to be properly distracted and enjoying life for a bit!
I totally feel you on being stuck after mistakes. It's so hard to get over the hump and just fix it and it always feels great to do it... but that doesn't change the fact that it is annoying and draining and BLAH! Sometimes a new start helps rev up that energy and things get DONE!
I’m so sorry. I didn’t realize that you were in crisis. I heard you mention the fires and flooding, but somehow I didn’t get the impact on you. I’m sending you fleecy hugs. Again, I’m boo sorry.
If you need more scraps I'm happy to toss my stash of leftovers and send a few!
Laura! That's too kind! I think I will manage and I'm kinda looking forward to the challenge to knit a bit more mindfully, if that makes sense! Thank you so much for offering and I hope your knitting/spinning parts are healthy and working well soon! (I'm behind on your podcasts so hopefully you are 100% now!)
Hi there. Referred by your friend. I’m from New Mexico too. I live in Utah.
Hello! Welcome and thank you for commenting! I've never been to Utah and would love to visit someday- so many beautiful places to see!
Hey beautiful lady!!! How are you? I wear a size 5.5 narrow shoe…I don’t know anyone with feet near my size. I’m 4’11”. How tall are you? I wish that I had a cool person to meet for coffee and knit.💗💗💗
Hello my lovely Sarah! I used to wear 5-5.5 until I got pregnant with my daughter! It makes it fun to find shoes! But I had a few fun pairs of kid's shoes back then! Some light up rainbow colored platform sandals, no less!! I'm 5'2". Yay for us shorties!!
I do not take it for granted to have knitting friends now! I hope you can find your RL knitting bestie someday. I'm so glad you are my YT knitting friend though!!
