Yarn on the Go
Jocelyn went to the Blue Hills Fibre Festival in Carberry, MB and bought some Dye for Ewe yarn in Spring In Your Step and Now That Was A Campfire to match with her Knitting Wolf Luxury Yarns in Eleganza Extravaganza, and Violet Drag Wolf. She also got some Don’t Make Me Blush and In Light and Shadow to go with her Sasha Drag Wolf to knit the Goldfish Memory shawl that she saw on TheKnitGirlls.
Diana went for brunch.
Sew Little Time
Jocelyn has been working on some sock sacks and Diana’s dress for the Pride and Prejudice Ball on June 16.
Wool Gathering
Displaying your yarn ends in a large glass container is cool.
