my passion is fiber! I spin my own yarns, knit, crochet & weave.


Some of my wheels. The oldest (dark one on left) is from the late 1700's, the great wheel is from the late 1800's

Excellent, Cyndi!
Some of the best socks and gloves I own were hand-knitted by my grandma (well, she doesn't spin her own yarn...)

Thanks guys!

I haven't knitted gloves (yet), but my first knitting project was some mittens that I felted, then knit a cuff for the wrist

Ron,
I get a good 8 hours a sleep every night. I'm up a 5 AM every day though.
