WIP Wednesday ~August 10th, 2011~

The baby blanket madness continues and I feel sooo close to finishing the squares. I'm missing a few chocolate squares in the picture. Green squares: Complete! Cream squares: Complete! Chocolate squares: only eight more to go! Woohoo! The garter stitch insanity is almost over.

This week, my very fist drop spindle arrived with a small sample of blue fiber. I'm already in love with it.

Sadly, my yarn is still very sad looking. This was the best picture I could get. I really don't spin in this postion. So far, my yarn is thick and thin. I think I need to work more on my drafting. My yarn is very far past bulky.

    With enough effort I believe that anything can be done and you are plodding along slowly but surely with the blanket which I say again will looks fabulous.

    Really looking forward to seeing it put together as I adore the palette.

    Keep on spinning, you will get better.

    Take care.

    I can't wait to see the blanket when it's done. Those colours are lovely together!

    I keep thinking about learning to spin. I'll have to sign up for a class one day. Good for you!
