Yesterday, Farmmom went to an Alpaca Open House and Fiber Event at White Cloud Alpacas, co-hosted by The Old Farm Girl. Animals, fiber, yarn, friends and food. What could be better?
Well, maybe the weather. That was a cool-ish 40's to maybe 50. Sun, then sleet, mist, clouds, some occasional breezes. But it was a good day to wear wool, spin and knit.
You can see in the picture below that my Leftover Pi is zooming along. I am almost ready for the next and probably last increase, doubling the stitches again. It is about a 22 inch radius now. I may need to break down and buy more black Knit Picks Gloss before I can finish.
And somehow yesterday, when the wool fumes lifted and I got home, I found a sweater's worth of Nature Spun (in scarlet), and a pound of pinkish and brown roving in my hands.
Now, how did that happen?
