Wow, I’ve gotten really bad about posting lately. Sorry! But then, I haven’t been doing much baking lately, and I haven’t finished any interesting knitting projects either. To be honest, I’ve been a little bit burned out on knitting lately, and I’ve taken to reading a bunch over the last couple of weeks. I got sucked in to the Southern Vampire Mysteries series by Charlaine Harris and then had to go watch all the True Blood episodes that are out. Good trashy Summer fun!

Anyway, before my knitting drought, I was participating in the “Tour de Fleece” spinning event, which basically asks its participants to spin every day of the Tour de France. I didn’t quite make every day, but I did do a lot of spinning with some pretty results, which I’ll share with y’all–

First up was a merino/cashmere blend that I plan on making into part of a scarf for Rob:

And the other merino/cashmere yarn for Rob’s scarf (I started getting a bit artsy with my yarn photography):

Next was some superwash merino from JulieSpins that became a sport-weight yarn that I gave to Terry:

And finally, my happy rainbow yarn, made from merino roving from Bee Mice Elf:

I’m trying to get my knitting mojo back now–going to Sock Summit in less than a week and how bad will that be if I’m not into knitting at the time! Hopefully I’ll have more finished objects to display soon!
