Slow slow Bee

If this is a Slow going group- I need a snail group. Clue 2 has been out since last Friday and I am only half done with Clue 1. It is not that I have not been working on it either. Going away this weekend and a sinus infection may have hindered progress but adding beads and recounting along with my slow "throwing "knitting method is making this even SLOWer. . But slow and steady is fine - although going faster would make it easier on my eyes and hands .

Clue 1

Stinky loves to sleep on his scratch box

My wee sock and purchases

Winter Clove Spinning Retreat was a good time . Claudia was super organized and everything was perfect including the other interesting participant's. What a beautiful setting for the retreat at the quaint Winter Clove Inn!
What puts a slight damper on these situations is my hearing loss which makes it very stressful .Forget being able to carry on a conversation when it is a large group in a big room or a noisy dining area so most of the time I sit there not talking to anyone. Hearing the instructions were even more stressful. Claudia did have a nice visual packet that helped follow what was going on and my friends are patient about helping me. Hearing loss sucks but vision loss would be much worse not being able to read , knit or drive.

Enough whining...

This wee sock (in picture way above) is a sample of what yarn spun..white, green, pink and purple were carded together to make this color. The purple was a mohair blend that made the yarn softer and flexible. Notice a new book and Lucy Neatby's DVD on Double knitting were added to my stash.
