Yeeeeeehaw!!!!!!

A Drum Carder! A Drum Carder! I just can´t believe it!
After dancing headbanging through the house (my neck is hurting now) I started carding at once. Without thinking I put in what was there. After spinning, it will be a Happy Rainbow Yarn. I´m not sure about the amounts of fibers to put in. And with the thing you are supposed to get the fibers out of the big drum I have to be more careful, its very pointy. Trying to get the wool off the drum, it landed in my left hand. This is exactly the reason why I don´t like to knit, I´m afraid to hurt someone with the needles. Me for example.

Right after all the colours a long planned project was started. Like many other poeple these days, I read Stephenie Meyer´s Twilight - Books and I love them. So the next load on the Carder were fibers for a Werewolf - Yarn which will be followed tomorrow by fibers for a vampire yarn for Bella´s love, bloodsucker Edward. You´ll see....:-)

Found a little Treasure


Yesterday I found a very old necklace in my grand- grandmothers jewelcase - made of little ivory beads! As noone in my family is wearing it, I decided to spin them in a yarn - what else..:-D
Soon on etsy;-)!

Two days ago I visited a friend of mine who creates outstanding, one – of – a – kind necklaces and sells them in a shop in Heidelberg. Her creations are so beautiful that I thought the world must know about this and so you’ll see this necklace soon in my shop at etsy´s :-)!
