What I Am Doing

This is what I am doing today:

(1) Dyeing

I am dyeing Sea Silk. It is my dream yarn — part silk, part spun seaweed (Seacell).  Its manufacturer claims it has antimicrobial and skin softening properties and I’m prepared to believe just about anything of this yarn.  Although I have adapted some of the spring colorways for it, including Katie and Pellucidly, I’m also doing some colorways just for this yarn, including Sea Maiden and Mystery. (all pictured below).

This yarn is beyond heaven.  I’m going to be adding it and a Seacell/Merino sock yarn to the line up.

(2) Knitting.

The Rowan sweater is done and only needs finishing.  It is also too small.  I am sad.  I have actually avoided blogging for the last several days because I am so sad about it.  Anyone out there a size 2 with skinny little arms?

Pictures to follow.

(3) Stuff.

Taxes — the bad part, but other than that, making lots of soup and pouring over the Disneyworld book with our two littlest ones to plan a trip there for part of spring break while the Judge takes our oldest to look at colleges.

I’ve also got  a round robin book from pocketful to work on this morning, and am letting the glaze dry on my own book  for the new colors round robin so I can send it out either today or Tuesday.  So, while there aren’t too many pictures this morning.  There will be a lot more over the weekend!
