Color Departure and Fleece Homecoming

It was hard not to stay in and spin after attending the NHA weekend in Marshfield, Ma.  I learned plenty, knowledge gaps were filled, and fiber was employed. This chocolate BFL top that was used for plying practice is perfect for this hat in progress. I thought the above skein was worsted variegated but once on the skein winder,  I realised it had been wound, four individual colors together, to make a heavy weight yarn. Weird, I didn't notice when I bought it. It took some time but I unwound it and yep, wound it up in separate color balls.

I plan to "unrib" the start and change the color.  

 

Usually the UPS man  delivers computer components from Newegg or some other online company, but not yesterday. See what was delivered? Spinderella's was very swift in the turnover on this order!

Lynn is very speedy! I should probably send my Border Leicester fleece out to her...I'm sure not getting anywhere with it!

What an odd way to package yarn! But the colors are very pretty. And that fiber? Yeah, a big batch of fiber back from the processor always makes me want to dive in and roll.

Oh, Di, I wish I'd known you were in town! I live right near Marshfield. Of course I am way behind in my blogs and reading this a week after you blogged it... I have got to keep up better!
