Just Another.....Knit!

Trio.....The Legumier was not available until after Christmas...and I did contemplate waiting until next year....but just couldn't. The mini-Legumiers are too cute and I can think of so many dishes I will create and serve in them! This is probably my last Le Creuset pot purchase for myself...but I will be happy supplying Joan and Bobby with pots and stoneware for many years!
Feast..... Bobby brought the Melting Pot chez Kirchgessner. He planned an amazing dinner! Surprisingly, the dark chocolate raspberry fondue was my favorite course...although I didn't think he could top the first course (cheese!) or the Chinoise! Fabulous!

The Dress............... Blocking is not the greatest....but hopefully...no one will notice any imperfections with Maggie in it!

Lotus Flower.......

This was a test knit....Mistakes made: soaking and then blocking...which made it impossible to block it with the scalloped edging...it wanted to be round and I can't say I did a good job with that. I would never use Baroque again...full of knots which means lots of ends to weave in.

It was a fun knit and not difficult....just the blocking was a fiasco.

The Big Spin..... Last week, I decided to spin instead of knit....Finally finished spinning and plying some Louet Shetland....367 yards...of hopefully fingering weight yarn.

I am not sure what this fiber is....I think it is merino/tencel. This is 767 yards of lace weight. Not enough for a shawl...but...I did enjoy spinning it.
The weather in Florida is wonderfully chilly - perfect for spinning!
