lots to do!

so, i've got about four or five projects on the go right now....this is some superwash that was supposed to come out grey/black, but looks more navy, and i burned it a little on the stove, so it's got a bit of brown, but it was a happy accident, cause it looks great, i loves blue and brown, and since it's superwash, i was able to warsh all the burnt hair stink out of it so it smells great too!
 this is the pink mohair, it turned out awesome, perfect, exactly what i wanted, i've got some other grey fiber that i'm going to use for the pairing with this. it is for two dear friends hats, they're going to be great!
 i was recently at a house party, and my dear friend put out some smoked salmon, i was instantly colour inspired....i decided to add some pumpkin orange and bright yellow and it made this firey fibery goodness!

 this is the yarn for my buddy from toronto times's scarf, we were just discussing some needlefelted accents....it's gonna be good, think i'll go get some commercial thick n quick in grey though, just to make up the bulk...want it to be nice and long!

finally, this is the "to be spun" box, i try to stay on track with projects, as i tend to get distracted. in here is the most luxurious stuff i've got, thinking about spinning a gift yarn, and i just got the colourful batts today, the first installment of my batt of the month subcription! it's called wintergreen dream, and it's from pancake and lulu on etsy. it's wool, angora, mulberry silk, seacell, soysilk, mohair, angelina and firestar, it's so SUPER sparkly! think i'll use it FOR MYSELF! i gotta make something for mama to wear, its gettin cold out there!
