Tour de Fleece. 7/3 - 7/25/10

For the first time ever, there will be a Spirit Trail / Knitter's Review Tour de Fleece Team. Clara and I teamed up and formed Team Superfleece (Ravelry link). Spin any Spirit Trail Fiber, or a breed from the Knitter's Book of Wool during the Tour. There will be prizes. And goals. And prizes. And fun. Head on over to Ravelry and join us if you're so inspired.

And speaking selfishly here, maybe I'll actually accomplish something. My personal TdF goal is to actually spin EVERY day. That in itself would be a feat.

On another note, just received another sample in the mail:


Anne Hanson's Rivolo, knitted in Spirit Trail Ananke (100% silk DK weight) in "Calypso." This yarn worked marvelously with this pattern, and it's just beautiful. Knitted for me by Nancy. Thanks, Nancy!

And, for once, the color is pretty right on in the photo. YAY! My new camera came, and although I'm still learning and experimenting (and will be for a LONG time, I think), I am inordinantly pleased with how well it takes photos, how true and clear the colors are, and so on.

I'm *still* catching up from MDSW, so more sample photos are still coming. Website updates are progressing, slowly, but I'm hoping to have them all done by the 17th, or early next week.

And May Spinning Club fibers are dyed and drying, and scheduled for mailing by this coming Friday! Spoiler photo pending :-D
