Just a couple of days ago I got my Ringspindle spindle from Golding Fiber tools. This one is the Solid Lignum Vitae. It is very light weight, only 18,5 grams! it is a dream to work with because it spins FOREVER and ever and ever!
This is close ups from a Anemone nemorosa.
Thats what I call this handspun, because it is 50% alpaca and 50% colonial wool.
She is sportweight, 180 yards and weighs 70 grams.
When I plied these two yarns I tried out a homemade tentioned lazy kate consisting of 4 straight needles and a shoebox, worked like a charm!!!!!
And when I had plied the two I had some of the colonial left, so I navaho plied it.
6 grams and 9,5 yards of DK weight yarn.
I recieved another swappackage, this time from Soapsandropes over at Ravely. I sent her a Travelsized needle-case and She sendt me some lovely Arucania Rancho. I love this yarn!!! Thanks Soapsandropes!!!!!
After mys first attempt at navaho plying I decided to do more of it to get the hang and feel of it.
This is Colonial wool, 29 grams and 51 yards of Dk weight yarn.
Picked on a good spring day
I got a package from Sydney, Thanks to her I finally get to try out the Knitpicks essential sockyarn and some othere new to me yarns. She also sendt two magazines for me to enjoy 
Thank you so much Sydney!
Debbie Bliss baby cashmerino
and Cascade eco wool.
Yes that is what I compare these yarns too, They are both from Knitpicks and they are in my posession because of the kindness of Julianne. They are sooooooooooo soft and I just want to cuddle them all the time! I am dreaming of what to make from these. Its probably not a big deal to most, but for me these are! Thank you so much Julianne!

I have gone back to work, after beeing home for a long time fist on sickleave then on maternityleave I started to work again a few days ago. I have a new job, with lots of interesting aspects and responsibilities. It is at a home for elderly where the majority suffors from different stages of dementia and physical limitations. I think it will bring me lots of joy and challenge me to use my creativity to find activities that can suit everyone who lives there. I needed to get my namesign so I could wear it again, and after looking and looking and some more looking I finally found it. I actually carved this myself 8 years ago when I was in the last stages of getting my degree as an activitydirector.
I had to start a new easy peasy project that would work as my mindless TV/Movie knitting. I decided on Miyake from Design club in Kauni EQ.
