SN: Sweet have you ever spun your own yarn before? I'm thinking about trying my hand at hand dying and spinning my own yarn. I've been looking at spinning wheels lately.

I love that black cowl you have on with the peachy hat - at least I think it's a cowl.

Yes it is a cowl. I was practicing stitches so it is truly for me only! LOL! Thanks! No I have never spun yarn before, you go ahead and then I can purchase from you! LOL! Gurl please...I am on here to avoid buying yarn now! LOL!

Lol, that's why I've been thinking about spinning my own yarn. Have you ever noticed how much cheaper undyed roving is. I was looking on Etsy this past weekend and was like dang maybe I need to be spinning instead of buying store bought or others homespun yarn, lol.

But I know I don't need to be buying anymore yarn right now. I need to use what I have. Lol.

SN: I picked up my needles the other day for the first time in quite a while. I had forgotten how much I love knitting. Possibly more so than crocheting. Haha.

I feel you. There is something about the finished look of knitting that I just love! I don't pay my hooks nearly as much attention as I do my needles :/

I couldn't agree more. Finished knit projects just look so seamless and, I don't know, less homemade so to speak than crochet. I don't know if that makes sense.

Definitely can't wait to do some lace knitting this summer. Haapsalu Lace knitting here I come. Lol.

Y'all I went out to deliver an order this evening and fell. It's snowing and it's only a little snow but I slipped and fell :/

My knee hurts so badly. I have ice on it and I pray that stops the swelling

Oh no! Be careful next time. Because its so cold some of out snow is turning to ice. That ice is nothing to mess with. Especially because it's being masked by the little bit of snowing going on now.
