One of my first expeditions in the tacky knitting realm.

..and using my 8yo's beginner needles. :)

I spun some more yarn... this time with small shells!

First I dyed some white roving into beachy colors using commercial food coloring I bought at Smart and Final.

Then I spun up the yarn starting with with the sand colors and progressed to the sea and sky so when it is knit or crocheted, it should make somewhat of a landscape.

I plied the yarn with holographic metallic thread that I had strung with small shells I got in Hawaii recently. (That took a LONG time!)

I'm really happy with the results! the stats: 80 yards, 3.5 oz.

Makes me want to go back to Hawaii though!

Knitted Garden Snail, Patterndesign by Hansi Singh (Hansigurumi)

From my beetroot handspun. I made one pair as a birthday gift for a friend, and liked them so much I decided a second pair for me was in order. Good thing I had plenty of yarn.

knitted myself a new pair of cosy wristwarmers ready for the colder autumn days. Have written it up as a free pattern which you can download if you'd like to make some. See my profile for a link to my blog where there's info about downloading the pdf file.

Read about it here.

My next mitten project which I'm really enjoying working on. I've done a twisted rib for the first time, and I'm very happy with the result.

Happy knitting to all of the yarn addicts out there !!
