Latest Zauberball pair of socks coming along nicely


First one finished, and I'm moving along on the second one.  These bright crayon colors are fun to work with.

I've also finally got a photo of progress on the Henry Der Vest.


All crumpled up, it doesn't look like much, but I think I'm going to really like the final result.

Rank Your Crafts

Here's my list of fiber crafts:
  • Hand knitting
  • Crochet
  • Spinning
  • Weaving
  • Quilting
  • Fiber preparation - washing, carding, etc.
  • Machine knitting
  • Tatting
  • Dyeing
  • Rug hooking

Applying the 80/20 Rule

The top three on that list take up about 80% of my crafting time and all the remaining combined make up about 20% of my time.

Take a short ranking survey.

Current Flea Market Finds

I found the following little (maybe not so little) item at the local flea market and thought it might be fun to play with.




Thanks to Finn helping set up the loom, you get a sense about how big this thing can be.  Not sure how much use I'll get out of this, but it cost a pittance.
