My Garden

My Garden, originally uploaded by Synknits.

I've always wanted a garden...and now I actually have one! It's been exciting, even though we bought most of the plants as plants and only planted a few things as seeds. We've only had two tomato plants take a dive (one is still holding on) and one squash plant(trampled by a dog). But all were replaced and I'm having a great time watching everything grow.

Prepping

I've been prepping fiber lately. I really want to spin, a lot, so I figure if I prep a bunch of fiber it would be easier for me to just pick up and spin. It will also help me out because I am ever so impatient and loathe prepping fiber when I want to just sit down and spin and consequently I prep as I go which definitely leads to inefficiency. So far I've prepped two 4 oz. rovings; one from Hello Yarn called Threatened by Rust (which I have yet to take a picture and wish I had taken a picture before I pre-drafted but there is the link for Hello Yarn's flickr picture) and one from Poppy Flower Fibers called Pond.Pictured above: Pond by Poppy Flower Fibers

My stash of rovings and fiber is ridiculous but I can't seem to stop purchasing more. Hello Yarn and Poppy Flower Fibers are two of my favorite hand dyer's and I just love their sense of color.

The Fiber Event

The Fiber Event at Putnum County Fair Grounds is today and tomorrow. I will be going tomorrow morning. I'm excited. It doesn't look like the weather will be any better than it was last year, which was cold and rainy, but I'll make do.
