I've been busy with some fiber arts while waiting for the weather to finish warming up for gardening season. I'm finally most of the way through this Gulf Coast Native fleece (a whole fleece - that's a lot of wool!) that I dyed with butternut hulls and coffee. It feels like it's taking forever, since I only have time to work on it every now and then. I'm looking forward to starting on the knitting-a-sweater phase of the project.

Here is my costume this year - I went as myself - a wench! π Happy #Halloween!
This is the cowl/hood I #HandDyed and crocheted this year. The dusty rose accent is #handspun. It is entirely made of #GulfCoast #wool off the backs of my sheep and is heavy and super warm!

Here is Hawk's #fleece. π This is my favorite fleece! It's EPIC! π₯° It is like a lion's π¦ mane.
It's a huge fleece, very curly and crimpy, with a long staple, and next-to-skin soft. I just drool everytime I shear Hawk. I think his #wool is MARVELOUS. I could keep taking more and more pics of it; I'm literally obsessed. π
We are done #shearing, but I have three more fleeces to skirt. To be continued...

Purple is one of my top 3 favorite colors & I love the tones in this one. Itβs called Amethyst Mist and itβs available on BFL wool. This would make some gorgeous yarn!

Next project is my arch nemesis, the Shepherd's Cross #roving, which I #handdyed years ago but then never could draft (slightly felted). It frustrated me so much it made me give up trying to learn to spin many times over the past few years. π€
Anyways, seems I've been able to show it who's boss since last night! π€¨π

i don't think i've talked about this project yet? it's an altar cloth made with 36 woven squares made with continuous strand weaving and seamed together before lightly felting. it should be about a meter square when finished.
i'm planning on embroidering it afterwards, but that is another project. π
i'm sloooooooowly working my way thru my backlog of unfinished objects.
