I meant to add to my blog a few weeks ago, but I got pretty busy and then I caught a cold and a GI bug right after that.  Neither were fun, still dealing with bronchitis.

On to nicer things :).  I am about 3 rolags short of being finished with my 2nd bobbin (showing on the 1st picture) on the last spin I was working on for the TDF (Tour de Fleece).  Yeah I know I’m late, but I’m gonna finish anyway :).  Going to try to have it done by sometime next week.  It is a fractal spin with the first bobbin being half light orange and half darker orange and the 2nd bobbin shorter bursts of color going from yellow to very light orange, rose, very light orange and back to yellow.  That flows through out the bobbin.  Not sure how that will play out when I ply them, but I guess we will see. 🙂

In the 2nd picture you see my new acquisitions :).  I love buying stitch markers and progress keepers from Adore Knit on Etsy.  Her stitch markers and progress keepers are awesome.  I bought a snoopy with a pumpkin progress keeper with beautiful fall stitch markers and she put in an extra gift, an acorn progress keeper, so cute!  I also purchased a spring set with a flower on the first stitch marker (makes it easy to know when you finish a round when you are knitting in the round) and an umbrella for the progress keeper (will be nice to remind me spring will come when the winter is lasting forever) and she gave me another little gift, a progress keeper with my initial on it.  She spoils me :).  If you are ever in need of set of stitch markers or progress keepers please go visit her Etsy shop, she is putting in markers for football season now, but she has a lot of different marker sets to choose from!

I am knitting on several different projects will try to get pictures of my progress and post sometime this next week.
