I am improving! Yay!
Here is the Pigeon Roof. I love love love this skein. This is actually taken before I soaked it. It's nice and "fluffed up" now. I might save it for a hat. :)

New stuff on the wheel is some roving I dyed myself.
I took a dyeing class at City Knitting a couple of weeks ago from the fabulous Rita. I had so much fun and absolutely loved dyeing, despite the fact that I was the most math challenged pupil there.
I started spinning it and I just love it. It totally reminds me of the Caribbean. Maybe that's why I love it so much. Me, the one who lives in Michigan and fears never seeing spring temps again. (It's supposed to snow again...sigh.) Anyhoo, when I spin it, I will just imagine myself on a cruise ship looking out over the ocean. Who says I have to live in reality all the time right?
Even Brodie wants spring. He loves laying in the sun. ;)

P.S. - I have been knitting too. I almost have the niece socks done and have completed a few more rows on the shawl.

Hey Lisa,
Hope you had a wonderful Easter. Your yarn is just beautiful! Don't you just love City Knitting. Wish I could spin, but alas, just have to drool over yours.

I love the new stuff on your wheel! Wow - that is just gorgeous!
I should have the silk to knit your scarf this week!!
AND - T-minus 36 hours until ABBY!!!
Your spun yarn is beautiful and that roving! You've created a masterpiece.
Spinning - there must be something in the air. A bunch of my favorite knitters are turning to spinning these days - spring, perhaps?
We got snow last night too - perhaps you heard me booing this morning when I woke up and looked out the window?
Nice spinning.
::thinking I should use my wheel as more than room decoration::
