Though i'm not really vegging. I'm almost done with my citron, just one more increase row and the ruffle left, i got a lot done on my Rose Colored Tank, mostly while watching Burn Notice here at home. heh.
But last night my yarn from Jess at Storied Yarns arrived. She and I are collaborating on a Knit-a-long! Donia and Bananach showed up yesterday, Ash and Seth should be here sometime this week, and i started writing my very first pattern last night. I'm doing a Winter Girl Caplet, a Summer Girl Scarf, and a pair of fingerless mitts. The yarn for the mitts is also part of a Spin-a-long (Seth is a pain in the @ss, but it's ok, he's Seth!). And by October i hope to have Bananach's shawl all ready to go.
The patterns will be exclusive to the KAL until it's finished in October, and then they'll be up on Ravelry, i think to purchase (but i'm not sure yet, either way, they'll be available in October).
I'm also gearing up for the Tour De Fleece! Thus far my list is:
Unseelie Court Batt - CorgiHill Farms - Team Tale Spin (Folklore and Fairytale Group)
Cobalt Glass - CorgiHill Farms - Team Savethebohopuppies
"Dragon" Colorway 100% Silk - Crazy Plum Ranch - Team Tale Spin
Pigeon Colorway - Gift from Sandi - Team Golden Treasure Coast (Local team)
seeing as how i only have 3 bobbins, i think the silk will be spindle spun, and the Unseelie Court batt is only 2 oz of fiber, i already spun up half of it. The Cobalt Glass is going to be as close to Malabrigo Lace as i can get it to make a citron for my mom with. and the Pigeon is BFL and will be my last leg of the race comfort fiber. Total that's 11 ounces of Fiber to spin.
