Good Morning All! Just checking in. Have been so busy at work I haven't had time to even read - - guess that's what they are paying me for
Took me an hour to just get caught up reading.
Welcome everyone new!
I love all the projects - hats, mittens, squares - wow. I have been busy - got all the alpaca fleece sorted and off to the co-op at the end of October. We shipped 1,200 lbs. I sorted about 200 lbs in my garage. I am working on Christmas gifts - about three projects going at once. I am making a shawl for my mom out of my alpaca, I knit until I run out of yarn and then have to spin some more before I can knit again. Next time I will know to make tons of yarn before I start, but at least I don't get bored doing one thing. I am crocheting leg and wrist warmers for my granddaughter, but I bought the yarn. I am spinning some yarn to make my DD a hat. Wow - I wish I could take vacation til Christmas to get all this stuff done.
I am so excited about getting my squares. I think I will add them to the ones from the Spring swap and make an afghan. Yes - I am in on the Spring swap again. I crochet my squares on the rapid (train) on the way to work and everyone always asks me what I am doing and if I got my squares shipped.
Sorry about all the losses - we lost 3 angora rabbits since last year and are now down to 4 fuzzies. We sold all our angora fiber this year to a lady who has it added to her alpaca fleece when she gets it processed. Won't have as much to sell next year - - when (think positive) my house sells and I move out to the country I will get more rabbits, and will finally be able to get some chicks. (No I don't have any chicken yet) Just 8 alpacas and 4 rabbits at the farm - dog, cat and 2 doves at home.
Hope all you not feeling well feel better
I took today off to get ready for turkey day so I better get going and clean, shop, cook - wow, I'm tired already. I would rather sit on the couch and hook, knit or spin - I will try to check in later.
Sorry for the long post - its been awhile.
