Fibrewest 2009



1st year of Fibrewest and it was good.

Pet a lot of yarn and found this friend to take home with me.

Alpaca... half a pound of alpaca for a very reasonable price.

It's soft, incredibly soft.

SKA March Decided

Thanks everyone for your help!
I have decided to knit Lakeside in the Black Hemp.
I chose this pattern because
1. Black yarn is so boring and with lakeside it can actaully be bearable
2. Lakeside size is made for "most adult women".. well I have "most YOUNG children" feet and my black hemp is of a ligther weight (I'm don't have a label for it anymore) so I'm hoping that it will make up the difference

I like that it took me 20 days into March to decide what I was going to knit.. I don't think I'll be able to finish by end of April, simply because they are almost to the knees and I have birthday gifts too finish.

Wish Me Luck!

Ps. I have a few FO's but a camera without the USB cord is so useless

SKA March Undecided

Hello Reader(s),


I need your opinion on what you think I should knit! I have a few patterns I like

1.) Lakeside by Julia Vaconsin
2.) Blackrose Socks by Suzi Anvin
3.) Baudelair by Cookie A.

And I'm choosing from these 2 yarns


Purple Hemp.. and Black Hemp.

I'm leaning more towards the black only because when else can I use black and have it be interesting?? I think LACE!

Any help will be appreciated!!
