Sock class - I taught a couple of people to make socks. I knit my little fingers to the bone to keep my samples up to speed with my students & ended up with a pair of cozy purple socks.
Designing woman - Since my collaboration with Friends and Fiberworks, a yarn shop in Asheville NC, I am knitting lots of small projects to show off the yarn. Sometimes we knit up samples in the yarn companies' patterns but whenever possible we make up a simple pattern to give away with yarn purchases. None of these are fabulous creations, but they are all just unique enough to declare an original. And it really helps the yarn find its way to a new home.
Knitting along - In addition to teaching classes, I'm also hosting knit-a-longs at the shop. This evening it will be 'Fast, Fun Fingerless Mitts', or as I call them Fast & Furious Fingerless Mitts.
Just plain knitting - Both for myself and the various shops who carry my hats and scarves. Now, can we get some cold weather, please?
Dyeing - Both for my Etsy shop and the local trade. I am currently spinning some delightful Blue Faced Leicester roving that I dyed in shades of orangey red. And it's actually for ME! I have a vest in mind...
Other than these few little dibs and dabs, working most Saturdays at the yarn shop, the day job has been keeping me busy as well as my usual activities - yoga, gardening, dancing, goofing off with friends & family. You know, life!
