Oh my i took my spinning wheel with me on R&R. And look what i produced. Not bad for a crazy queen. And if you want to see pictures of W you will have to go to the Princess blog, because i forget to take pictures when he is here. I just hold him and he snuggles. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Lovely.

And then you can see that i have been knitting, to reclain some of my needles. The inventory sheet says we have lots of sizes, but they are not home, they are all off wondering around unfinished projects. I don’t have that many ufo’s do I, well off to knit and get ready to head for Seattle. Do you think i will find trouble to get into up there?
Stay tuned…Can you believe i’m still knitting kitchen clothes. I really like to try out new color combinations and it’s easy. Yes..This is small and portable, and very classy.
The spinning has produced beautiful singles. I love it.
And then the socks are finished just in time to take to humid freezing Seattle.
and i haven’t forgotten about the contest, it is on going for about another week.

Well here i am again, I have to look back on my photos and go oh yea and we did that too. August was lots of fun. The first week the Duchess arrived she showed off her stash that she procured in NY at School Products and I showed off several socks one pair finished. Koigu handpainted sock yarn and another on the needles. Sock yarn dyed by the Duchess, pattern from Interweave Socks, twisted cable.

This was done in the Queens courtyard (backyard). We also captured some photos of the King’s Mother, the Duchess and the Queen. Good Work camera, along with the shawl that the Duchess knit for the Queen Mother F. Beautiful isn’t it.This little cake of yarn in my vacation yarn that the Duke and Duchess presented to me. I am rubbing my hands together deciding what it will become.I am so proud of myself, finished JH sweater which included the sewing and weaving of at least a thousand ends and no one died. Therefore i am showing it off again as a finished project.
We will throw in the Frisbee Kids because they think if you are outside you are there to throw the frisbee.
