If you are still subscribed to this blog...
You deserve a prize (or at least a chance at one), but more on that at the end of this post. I have obviously, completely lost my blogging mojo. Over six months! For shame... oh well. If you aren't one of my flickr or Ravelry contacts here's what's been up. Socks and Projects Spectrum and Spinning. The socks (or more specifically single socks) are in the Fire variety
and the Earth variety
For info on individual socks, please click on the photos.
The spinning, well, it's been in many varieties...
To see more handspun then you ever wanted and get the deets on what you see here go look at my handspun stash on Ravelry :) I feel like I'm being seriously lazy, but this is 6 months of back log people and I've definitely been busy with the spinning. Although, when you look at it like that it also seems like a pitifully small amount.
The prize will also be of the handspun variety-
I'm not very creative when it comes to contests, so if you'd like to win this skein of superwash merino handspun (250 yards of 2 ply) leave me a comment by midnight PST Wednesday, June 4th and I'll randomly draw a winner out of the hat or something to that effect. And if you're still around, thanks... I'll try to pop in more often this summer.
Wow -- look at all of those cablely socks! Mmmm! you've been really busy, even if you have kept some of it to yourself! I love the colors you chose.

Lovely socks and awesome handspun! Are you knitting socks with the handspun? I can't wait to see what your yarn turns into! (and I'm totally impressed with how much you spin! I certainly can't keep up with you.)

We are here ;)
I love your pictures, they are so great.
And I´m very happy when ever you show a new skein on Ravelry.
But I would like to read about your knitting too :)

Good to here you have been very busy. I know what you mean about blogging. I used to post quite often, now it is down to once a week and I crame everything into one post because I know I won't find the time/energy/mojo to write again.

Your projects and yarns are very beautiful!!! I lost my blogging mojo too, mostly because of ravelry and because I never know what to say on my blog. I'm happy you're back though! I always read your blog when it shows up on bloglines for me!
