Small Mohair Purse Too many days spent away from home have prevented much in the way of work lately. I did finish crocheting the small mohair bag and start another one. The finished one is blocking on my washer right now. I'll be digging out some beads and trinkets to embellish it after it dries. This didn't please me as much as the first one; I think the thicker yarn needed a different treatment. The next one, with a larger crochet hook and looser stitches, is going much better.
Hand Dyed Angora Also drying with the bag is some angora I dyed last weekend. Angora takes a long time to get thoroughly wet, and also a long time to dry. With all the other fiber I worked up last week, I didn't have a place to spread this out right away. So it sat draped over a shower rod and didn't fluff up until I spread it thinner. Very red! This week has flown by, with a trip to town for bunny feed and visiting with favorite cousin, a day of play and work in Floyd, and yesterday a gathering to celebrate the dedication of a visitor's kiosk for The Crooked Road in Meadows of Dan. A group of bloggers met in Floyd on Thursday for an instructive and entertaining meeting at a local cafe. Linda at Goin' Up Cripple Creek has a delightful description of the event. We learned about trackbacks and permalinks; I'm not going to turn on trackbacks here, yet, until the spam problem is figured out. It was great meeting so many local bloggers. Linda is just like her blog, sunny, cheerful, witty and wise!
