Dandelion Slaw

posted Monday, 21 July 2008

That's what I think when I look at this:

yellow-green wool

It's as though someone likes dandelion flowers so much they've pulled the petals off them & shredded the greens in a food processor.  It's my purchase from this past weekend's "Art on the Bay", which I got to skim through on my lunch half-hour Saturday.  A whetting of the appetite, possibly, for the coming weekend's Castle Farms Fiber Fest?  I'm working Saturday again, so I suppose it'll have to be Sunday if I can get there . . .

yellow-green wool & purple spindle

That's my new square, purple-stained spindle from Spinsanity.  Pretty & it doesn't roll around!  =)

I've been feeling so very busy this month!  I've been trained to man Reference at the library to fill in for a staff member currently recovering from surgery.  This tickles my Mom no end, being a former Reference Librarian herself.  This week I started to kind of enjoy it, finding my sea legs so to speak.  Thursday I felt so competent & productive!  It's a fantastic feeling.  I am so thankful I can hardly express it, praise God!

I need to knit more, though.  =)  There just aren't enough hours!
