You might be able to tell by the pictures I took that I was in a bit of a hurry. I don't want E to find out about this yet!

I stopped off at
Northwest Wools on my way to see family and found some wool. I wasn't planning on buying anything (famous last words, I know), but I discovered this morning that I wouldn't be able to buy this dyer's wool anymore.
Sandy is one of my favorite! She is so sweet and does an amazing job with color.

I would love to dye roving like her. I have a plastic tote that is devoted to her wool! I stopped by the shop and they happened to have some of her stuff because she had left over from
Black Sheep Gathering. I went a little over board I know. I bought three colorways in Superwash Corriedale and one colorway in BFL.

I just happened to buy two of each in the colorway.

I figured I enjoyed spinning the Superwash Corriedale so much this last time I should get more. I've been so tired of going through my fiber box and there's fiber I don't like. I'm learning, and only buying what I do like! I do need to clean out the bucket and have a stash sale of all the stuff I don't want to spin.
Last note about Sandy. If you visit my
shop, the top picture is BFL she dyed that I spun and plied. I'm still a little sad I sold it!
I'm meeting some knit friends at
Twisted tonight for some e loving and chatting. I hoping for some more label input. As soon as I have a general consensus I'll show the results here.
Tomorrow there is a German Festival! I'm hoping to get some good Oma tchotchkes for Christmas. I'll be back with the results. My guess is I should probably go spin!
See you in a bit! My February Lady is soooo pretty. But I've been ignoring her for a good part of the day, playing with a toe-up sock. Still not sold on this idea...
