SPRING CLEANING



Cleared off all the shelves. Vacuumed,washed and reorganized everything. So much more to do.
Really I need another room.  NO - I need a studio.  I've made the mistake of buying a house with no studio space. As a result, I'm having to use one of the bedrooms as a sewing and storage room.



Do you think I have enough knitting needles????? 

 I must stop buying them and stay out of the thrift stores.
 I have two weaving looms set up in the living room. This is where I'm weaving and spinning for now.





The new shelving , storage units I purchased to try and organize myself.  Still have tons of wool to sort through, but it's a start, and the space is starting to come together.

 I have a habit of putting everything in a bag when I'm working on a knitting project. As a result, I'm having to go through every bag and sort out yarn and knitting needles. This has been so time consuming.
Not to mention how tired I am.


Spring is on it's way, I saw 12 robins the other day, and this makes my heart sing.

Happy Spring to everyone  :)

Hand Spun, Hand Woven Hearts


 Using up hand spun yarn is something I always do with great care. I treasure every bit of my hand spun yarn and always try to find ways to carefully put it to good use. This is the result of left over bits of yardage from a clothing garment I made and just couldn't waste.

IS IT SPRING YET ?

 Bear Angel



Well almost. Bear Angel is anxious for spring to arrive and so am I. We still have snow on the ground here in Ontario but I'm on the look out for robins as Zoe and I walk around the neighbourhood.
