Believe it or not, this is a double batch of jam. Picking was terrible at Rowe's this morning but it was my last chance to make strawberry jam this year. It's been so hot, I couldn't chance not being able to pick at Whittaker's (my usual place) next weekend. I much prefer Whittaker's over Rowe's because they're a small farm family and not at commercial as the other place. Plus, Rowe's was overgrown with weeds which made picking incredibly frustrating. Mostly, I just like the Whittaker's better.
I'm starting to gear up for the Tour de Fleece, which starts when the Tour de France starts on the 30th. On Ravelry, I've joined Team Crankypants, Team Tardis and Team Spindling. I'll be spinning yarn for future woven scarves and finishing up the second sock I'm spindle spinning. I'm really pumped about this!
I join Team Crankypants every year. Though each year I seem to accomplish less and less spinning...
