Handspun Friday - 3rd skein - Jacob Humbug

That's my last skein of Humbug, which I've finished BEFORE Happy arrived. I have not finished anything since then, but I'm close. Hopefully there will be something to show you, next week.

Kettle dyed Jacob Humbug 4- 3.5oz by Shunklies

fiber: Kettle Dyed Jacob Humbug by Shunklies, 3.5oz
yarn: ~ 348yds, navajo plied

I like to see all three of them side by side. I know already, that the next colorway will come in two skeins. Why? More about that when they are done.

I know I'm terrible behind in answering e-mails etc. I haven't been feeling too well for about a week now. Looking after Happy is all I can do right now, before the headaches and nausea get worse. I really hate it, when I'm not feeling well, and I can't do anything worthwhile. Please send some positiv thoughts my way! Thanks.

Bea said...: ich wünsche Dir gute Besserung. Lass einfach mal fünf gerade sein.

Deine Garne sind sehr schön und passen gut zusammen. Auf dem Foto sieht man nicht, wieviel Gramm das sind. Hast du vor, einen Pulli daraus zu stricken?

Monica aka Gloria Patre said...: I really REALLY love the Humbug colors! You are a bad influence - now I want some!! Do you prefer the Shetland or the Jacob? I've been longing to try spinning some Shetland. IS it as soft as they say?; August 11, 2009 12:46 p.m.
