FAF: Dyeing to Play with Fiber

Happy Fiber Arts Friday!

Last weekend I enjoyed an afternoon of spinning with a bunch of awesome ladies over at Seven Spirits Farm.  No one wanted their photo taken!  Shy folk.  I took photos anyway LOL

I had a goal this week do dye up a braid of roving each day of the week… I got 5 braids dyed up before my day job interfered.   All of these are currently up for sale on our Etsy Shop if anyone is interested.


I also decided to finally start my La La Shawl KAL with the Genesee Valley Hand Spinners guild.  Of course it meant going to the Yarn Boutique to pick up a new #10 circular needle to work it.   Ever try walking into a yarn store with only one item in mind and buy more?  Yeah well I couldn’t help but pick up this lovely purple by Cascade Yarns which happily replaced the yarn I was going to use for the shawl.  Isn’t she pretty?!

Lastly there’s a couple of new Facebook Groups you all might be interested in.  Check them out!

Lastly don’t forget I’m doing a Lollypop Yarn GIVEAWAY! at the end of the month all you have to do is like our Farm Page on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dutch-Hollow-Acres/160939610604214
