Ass-yarn

I'm hard at work on the next episode of the podcast, I just lack one piece -- a This knitter's life. I'd like to have it up this weekend, which means I could break down and write one myself or I could wrangle someone else into doing it. Hmmm...Wrangle wrangle. Anyone up for it? Come on, give it up baby. But really, if you're interested, lmk! You wouldn't even have to read it if you didn't want to...

I've also been knitting. I started knitting Teva Durham's Lace Leaf Pullover. You know the one, it's always in green and it's got the the lace leaf motif on the bottom and the neck and the sweet ladder holes running up the sleeve. Well, I decided I had enough
Araucania Nature Wool Chunky to whip it out in no time. So in one night I got 9 inches done, the whole bottom half of the body, in the round.

However, I knitted it while watching old episodes of Friday Night lights, which is such a good show, btw, and away from the engrossing friday night lights and in the real lights, like the light of day, or heck, even by the light of a dim refrigerator bulb, one can clearly see a 3, maybe 4 shade difference between balls of yarn! Seriously, it's like it's not even the same color, one is milk chocolate and one is dark chocolate.

So I rip back to the first join and I start alternating balls. What do I get? a striped sweater, light, dark, light, dark, ohh super dark, light dark...It's terrible. So I mope into the studio and dump the whole bag of balls onto the floor, all 11 skeins. Not two of them are the same color! Really! But they all claim the same dyelot! Is that legal? Is this a real yarn company? It's ass and I don't call yarn ass often. Bah. So, instead of giving up or ripping back or stabbing myself in the eye with an addi size 11, I knit on. I will finish it and I will over-dye the whole thing. Take that ass-yarn!

But I'm knitting, right? so YAY!

I'm also spinning. Here's a picture of me completing one of my last backordered yarns. Who wouldn't want to spend 5 hours a day doing this? It's lovely.

You spin with your shoes on??? I thought THAT was illegal!

heh. I used to be natural-spinner, no shoes, no socks, unshaved pits...However, spinning 5 hours a day 5 days a week, my arches suffer if I don't have support, so sexy, i know.

I spin barefoot. Unshorn, also, but I wasn't going to share that with the world. Now you know my secrets!

How lovely to spin with Sweet Pea on your lap, too. Does she try to help? (Mine has asked me to teach her to spin, and also to buy her her own wheel for xmoose. I done good.)

How lame about that yarn! That is sure a sweet picture. I'd love to spin with my kiddo on my lap, but she is allergic to sitting still anymore.
