a good days thrifting

April 5, 2007

i volunteered today.

see on the left hand side, the not yarn or pottery stuff? that, my friends, is wool and silk roving. i’ve never found roving in a thrift store before. the tag says it’s from the the silk worker and i got two bags of it! so fun. as far as i can tell it’s crazy teal wool with blue, peach, and yellow silk. yay!

the other yarns are wool. i also got a bunch more of the weird grey/teal stuff in the upper right hand corner. lots of teal today…

the platter – handmade of course. to be used in the show to hold some of the grannies. i’m thinking the greens and blues.

for the last two days i have been knitting and knitting and knitting on the 3 by 3 ribbed scarf (it’s quite large) which is the last piece for the show. TEDIOUS. tedious. tedious. gracious, i can’t wait until it’s done. i’d almost rather work on reworking my paper (which i also still have to do…), but no. i’m off to knit.
