Another VQBP

Yes, another Very Quick Blog Post. No, I still haven't got the pictures of all the things I have finished. But I wanted to show you how nice stitch markers are as necklaces:

This is a beautiful glass bead stitch marker made by local artist Cate Lamb; we sell her stitch markers here at Unique One. The hardest part is deciding which one to buy, because each one is unique. I put it on a twine cord and it is very pretty, and after I accumulate enough of these stitch markers, I can change them to match my outfit every day! I love dem.

My shark shawl is 80% done, and my Ty Dy socks are 25% done, but my tencel/wool spinning fiber from the Fiber Frolic is still only 10% done, as I haven't touched my spindle for weeks. I am bad. 

Very Quick Blog Post

I noticed the last couple of years I didn't really post anything to my blog in July and August because, well, it is friggin' crazy around here during those two months. But I am determined to break that cycle this year. 

So this is a VQBP (Very Quick Blog Post) because I have to leave five minutes ago. Thus, no pictures. I have taken them but don't have time to import them and futz with them in photoshop and whatever. Later, I promise, pictures there will be aplenty. 

In short, I have finished the Mystery Socks and I have finished the Diamond Patch mittens and I am now one wedge shy of a full Pie Wedge Shawl, and my Ty Dy socks are now 25% done, and I haven't worked on my spinning at all for about 2 weeks (but soon I will). I decided I wanted to finish both the shawl and the socks before diving into the stash and the purchases to fill up my 4 project slots. Right now I only have 3 project slots, soon to be 1 project slot.... so that means I can start or re-start 3 projects at once very soon! I feel like a project glutton. It will be great. 

Hugs and kisses to all, and I will keep posting as much as I can!
