I'm finally feeling like myself again after nearly a week of fever, coughing and general malaise. I can't believe I missed what is known around these parts as near perfect fall weather. Of course, now that I feel good, the temps are dropping and the precipitation is heading in. Meanwhile, I kept myself busy taming a huge pile of hand dyed Blue Faced Leicester roving. I hand dyed these myself with food colors a couple of months ago. My wheel sometimes goes for months without a workout, but the time seemed right to get some of that taken care of while watching dvd's and Netflix.
This pretty pink will become a ribwarmer vest for a little someone I know. The one below is from roving my mom got me in Alaska. She said specifically to make something for myself, so this is a scarf for me!
I was able to enjoy some of the good weather from the back patio, glorious as it was. Tomorrow we are off for another college visit! There are still a few more schools to see in November before Chloe takes the plunge and decides which to apply to.
Have a great weekend!
