TDF Grand Finale

 The chair is being put away, the machine oiled and cleaned for a while-
at least until I dye the pound of Masham wool and the linen-my next ambitions lined up. 
 Last year, I didn't bother trying to fit in the Tour de Fleece at all 
 but I am glad I at least participated this year.
  I enjoyed checking out all of the other skeins in my Ravelry group, too.
So here is this year's resulting skeins-
1,241 yards of 2-ply yarn!
(Compared to year's past when I spun more than a mile of yarn, I still executed a good showing!)

  3. I didn't even measure mine - I am still working on the cotton top:) but I doubt I'll be able to finish it today... and it's not the amount that counts - it's the quality:)

  9. Pretty pile of yarn! I had planned to do some spinning this week, but I find myself unable to wear my glasses because I can’t handle the weight of them on my tender face, and I can’t see my lap clearly without my glasses, let alone fiber that’s farther away than my knees...never boring!! Nice to see yours, anyway!

SOME MORE BABY HATS

I added to the baby hat pile and even changed up the pattern with the finer yarn.  The one on the far left is really a pink;  I worked on it...
