May/June Crafting Update and July Goals

[unicornduke]

So I completely forgot to do my June goals. To be fair, I was slightly busy.

May/June goals

• weave tablet weaving project
• spin final third of purple roving - done before I moved! And I literally finished plying it yesterday
• comb romney fleece - still in progress
• wash as many fleeces as possible - got two done, building drying rack this week
• crochet socks - finished!

Purple!


Socks photographed very badly!



July goals

• Spin something - I have exchanged spinning wheels with dragonlady7 and I want to fiddle with her wheel since it seems to be cranky and not spinning correctly. maybe go wild and spin something on my electrical wheel that is thicker
• Skein purple yarn - it's a pound of yarn and it took me so long to ply and now I need to skein it. ugh. someday I will own a skein winder.
• build fleece drying rack - I need to buy lumber but should be a fast build and then I can get back to washing the alpaca fleeces
• comb romney fleece - I really want to finish this! 
• crochet - keep working on the handspun shawl I started,  it's very pretty
• knitting - sweater? socks again? I doubt it but lets see

Oh there's a whole bunch of different types of skein winders and quality and so I need to decide which one I want and if I want a reel winder or an actual skein winder and which one. So I'll get one eventually but it isn't urgent because I do have a niddy noddy. Hand winding takes time but is doable
