Just, Wow

From this...



to this...



to this...



to this...



to the final product.



From fluff to fabric, wee mittens for my daughter at her request. I am flattered.

I hope you'll all bear with me as I go through my newbie spinning madness. I love it, but I also don't want my blog to turn into a spinning blog. Hopefully, I'll be able to find a balance of my morphed hobby and blend everything together nicely.

Now I'm going to knit that Telemark sleeve. Promise. I'm also getting the itch to knit cables...hmmm, perhaps another Star*ore? A Lopi? Decisions, decisions...

Got this from Minnie. "Apparently, this person is trying to track a meme. Shall we knit bloggers blow their doors off? Go here, read the instructions, then ping here. Let's rock the web!"

Keep On Knitting...

I'm impressed. I wouldn't call you a newbie judging by those gorgeous mittens!

I betcha there is a lovely scarf in those skeins too.

Don't worry about posting a lot of spinning on your blog. Many knitters are also fans of spinning, if not spinners themselves. Be who you are, a mulit-talented person. Don't worry about your readers flocking away by the droves. It won't happen.

The yarn & the mittens are wonderful! This is what I'm afraid of though - learning to spin & loving it. It would knit into my knitting time!
