I've been having so much fun! I finally got a drum carder from Special Kitty. I've been spending most of the time carding up the alpace I got from R. I've blended alpaca with wool, made sparkly batts and have generally enjoyed myself. Yesterday I started carding the fleece from Excellente. This was his first shearing and I'm so amazed at how soft this stuff is. There isn't that much crimp and I may blend it with merino or something to fluff it up a little, but I want to make a sweater for myself with it.Or a nice pair of gloves.

I've also been working on socks for us (and turning them in for the HPKCHC). At this point I may stop knitting them for Lady Dreamer and focus on my own feet. I do not like to be cold in the winter. I've nearly completed 2 squares for the afghan and really need to get going on it. I did set a goal to finish all classes and the OWL and I want to stick to that.

For now, I'm going to finish up another baby hat and focus on the afghan squares.
