Nicole from British Columbia. I've emailed Nicole and I'm waiting to see if she prefers sock yarn or roving. (Oh, Nicole, I'm probably going to need your address, too. Forgot to ask for that.) I only had five responders so the odds were pretty good for the folks who entered.
This is all that's left of the blue roving. It'll get spun and plied this weekend. It occurred to me tonight that if I'm not blogging about my wrap, I'm going to have precious little to post about my evenings. I'd considered only working on the wrap on Knit Night but I just can't leave it alone. It calls to me.
I told the ladies last night about my wool quest and Alice asked me if I was making a specimen book. That's exactly what I'm making but I hadn't thought to call it that until she mentioned it. I'd had the thought running around in the back of my head for a while now that I wasn't happy with the current format of my wool binders, aka specimen books. I'll be designing a new format on my computer in the next week or so. I'm not terribly happy with my hand writing so each specimen page will most likely be completely typed. I'll fill out a new page as I experience a new wool. One thing I want to add to each page is space for a photo. My only real complaint about In Sheeps Clothing is that there aren't any photos of the sheep. Finding photos of each breed may be problematic but I'll deal with that later.
Thank you to the fab five who entered my little contest and to the rest of you who quietly read my little blog. It still surprises me that it's been a whole year. Now that I've gotten the whole blogging thing down, I'd like to make things better and more fun for you to read. With that in mind, if there's something you'd like to see or see more of or any other suggestions, let me know. If it's doable, I'll try and incorporate the changes in the next year.
Tomorrow's Friday. I'll be doing the usual spinning and knitting this weekend. What will you be up to?
