This tablet weaving project has been quite the challenge but it has brought me so much joy! This is the finest thread I’ve woven with to date and getting the gradient just right across the warp added an extra layer of difficulty, but well worth it!

I’m working on a new project with Penelope, Rainbow Hearts. 12 mm wide band made of Aunt Lydia Crochet Cotton 10 5 mm wide band made of Lizbeth Thread Size 80

I’ve had this project in mind from the moment I got my hands on the Penelope band loom. These are my very first handwoven shoelaces! They are a perfect match with my Allbirds.

We have more information about Penelope, including our release date and pricing. www.daedalusspinningwheels.com/post/penelop...

I always love to learn how to do new things. Tablet weaving has been on my to learn list for several years. With the development of Penelope, I’m ready to dive in and explore this new to me craft.

Sweater progress is going well! I’ve reached the point where I will be sectioning off the arms and starting in on the body with the gradient. I’m so excited to see how the gradient develops.

My second sweater is well on its way! I’m feeling a lot more confident this go around. I’m thankful for all my tools that help make projects like this go smoother and add an extra flair of fun.

Sunflower Fields is all plied up! Thankful to tick off another project on my outstanding spinning works in progress list. Only another 15 WIPs to go. Sunflower Fields by @fossilfibers.bsky.social Spun on @akerworks.bsky.social Mixy Spindles Chain Plied on @daedalusspinners.bsky.social Sparrow

The Sunflower Field singles are done! The next step was to join the singles together. I intentionally left the beginnings and ends of each copy fluffy so that I could spin splice the ends together for a continuous yarn. youtu.be/QbBbLJy5OVY

Sunflower Fields spun on Mixy Spindles. I love how fast these spindles spin. When the fiber arrived I knew I had to order a few more Mixy Spindle whorls to coordinate with the spin. 🧶 Spin is Sunflower Fields on BFL dyed by @fossilfibers.bsky.social and spun on @akerworks.bsky.social Mixy Spindles

The last color in the first braid of Midnight Hour is done! I started on the second braid during the Daedalus Saturday Night Zoom and loved every minute! I had a blast tonight hanging out with folks on Zoom. Midnight Hour on BFL/Silk dyed by @fossilfibers.bsky.social

The next color up in this Midnight Hour braid set by @fossilfibers.bsky.social is shades of cranberry. The last color for this braid is orange. I’m eager to dig into the next braid as it has some extremely gorgeous greens and teals in it. Spun on @daedalusspinners.bsky.social Magpie

Finished up spinning the Plum section of Midnight Hour by @fossilfibers.bsky.social on my @daedalusspinners.bsky.social Magpie. Now onto the Cranberry!

Currently spinning Midnight Hour by @fossilfibers.bsky.social on my @daedalusspinners.bsky.social Magpie V2. I love the way you can see the colors shift in the spin throughout the Magpie’s long bobbins. The color will be shifting towards plum next! 🧶

OH MY SQUEEE!!! I’ve been waiting for this yarn ever since @thebluebrick.bsky.social told me she was doing a bug themed sock box. It was so worth the wait! Rosa Latte the spider, helped me unbox… told her it was a box full of bug yarn… NO Rosa it’s not bugs to eat… 🧶

Today I received quite the surprise! @roguewovens.bsky.social sent me this incredibly adorable jumping spider plushie!!! I’m contemplating naming her Rosa Latte (after her pink fangs and latte colored fluffs. She’s absolutely precious!

A dear friend of mine reminded me the other day that my fibery photos bring her a lot of joy. It’s been difficult to find joy lately with the rough road my life has taken over the past several months, but I cherish knowing that my photos can bring even a little spark of light to others around me. 🧶

I need some help picking out what I should work on next from my outstanding list of Spinning WIPs. I want to pick out one spindle project and one @daedalusspinningwheels project. I have ⭐️ the potential projects.
