I'm so excited!

Do you all remember when I got some beautiful fiber from my secret pal? Sorry, but I am not that advanced to actually show you the picture. But go to the Feb. 2005 archive and scroll down. You will see it. Anyway......... A new shop opened in my home town and why am I so excited? Well, it is a weaving, spinning, fiber shop! So I asked if they could card the wool that Audrey sent and they did! Wanna see?

I don't know why Suki insisted on being in the photo, she is such a bitch. She is saying, "It's just wool, I don't kwow what the big deal is"

I had the owner of the shop sorta separate the colors because when she did a test it ended up looking like baby vomit. So here is the "orange" baby vomit.

I think it will look better spun up. Perhaps it looks more like baby poo. Anyway, this being a "STORE" and all I bought some roving

I want everyone to go over and wish Audrey a very Happy Birthday! Go on! I'll wait.....

My daughter tagged me, and since I read your blog, I'm tagging you.

You are sweet Beth! The roving looks great. I'll be curious to see what the beige stuff looks like - maybe it'll be camel & will set off the blue!

Look at that stuff. I'm getting fiber envy. I'm going to have to make a trip over there to see what sort of fibery stuff they have. Of course, it's a major matter of finding the time!
