Cauldron

This is gorgeous on the bobbin!

From the same spinner:

"Polwarth in Cauldron from
Hello Yarn Fiber Club
2 oz spun, 2 more to go for a 2-ply

I did not finish it in time because I decided to make a 25k bike ride instead of sitting at the spinning wheel."

Sounds good to me! One can always come back to the wheel.

These are gorgeous! I have a Lendrum wheel which i love, as it's a double treadle, and it exercises my shins as I spin.

Photographer's note:

"This is my complete output during Tour de Fleece 2010! It was more than ever dreamed of spinning in 3 weeks."

Nice work!

This is cool!

Photographer's note:

"Introducing...my newest work!
A few weeks ago at the Summit of Awesome, the very lovely Jenny Hart taught
me how to embroider! I knew it was going to find it's way into my artwork,
but didn't know it would be so quickly. Yes, I've quickly become very
obsessed with embroidering. Everything. I've combined some knitting, painting, stitching and more in this tiny piece.

The details:
Title: Knit Snitch
[Be careful what you say around this little girl, she records everything in
her knitting]
Size: It's tiny: 3"x4"

Want to see it?
Tonight, May 15, at Civilian Art Project
Affordable Art Show + dance party to celebrate birthdays [Heather Goss + Jayme
McLellan]

Hot Cross Bun


Hot Cross Bun, originally uploaded by alicia954.

This is absolutely adorable~

Photo note:

"I like waking up to emails asking me to design a crochet hot cross bun. Whipped this up in an hour at Knit Club and wowed the ladies in the process. :)

I had forgotten that when I was maybe 5 years old, at Sears, I was mesmerized by a little hot cross bun bracelet. I remember thinking that I'd regret for the rest of my life (ha) if I didn't get it, that this was a HUGE life decision and the hot cross bun bracelet was somehow going to make me happy and make my life complete (ya know, at age 5). Well, I didn't ask for it, and indeed regretted it for many many years...perhaps this can replace the hot cross bun void in my life.

I just recently learned that it's believed a piece of a hot cross bun given to a sick person helps them recover. Maybe deep down that's why I needed that hot cross bun bracelet..."
